The 2022 Missouri Valley Conference women's soccer tournament was the postseason women's soccer tournament for the Missouri Valley Conference held from October 27 through November 6, 2022. The Opening round and Second round was held at campus sites. The semifinals and finals took place at Brown Field in Valparaiso, Indiana. The eight-team single-elimination tournament consisted of four rounds based on seeding from regular season conference play. The defending champions were the Loyola Ramblers, who did not defend their title as they moved to the A-10 Conference.[1][2] The tournament champions were the Missouri State Bears who defeated Murray State 1–0 in the final.[3] The conference tournament title was the third for the Missouri State women's soccer program, and first for head coach Kirk Nelson. The championship was the first since 2017 for Missouri State.[4] As tournament champions, Missouri State earned the Missouri Valley's automatic berth into the 2022 NCAA Division I Women's Soccer Tournament.
Seeding
[edit]Eight of the eleven Missouri Valley Conference women's soccer programs qualified for the 2022 Tournament. Teams were seeded based on their regular season records. A tiebreaker was required to determine the third and fourth seeds between Southern Illinois and UIC as both teams finished the regular season with 5–2–3 conference records. UIC claimed the third seed by virtue of a 1–0 win over Southern Illinois on the last day of the regular season. UNI and Belmont both finished the season tied with twelve points after regular season play, leaving a tiebreaker required for the sixth and seventh seeds. UNI was awarded the sixth seed based on cumulative record against teams above them in the standings because their regular season match ended in a 0–0 draw. UNI was 0–2–3 against teams above them, earning three points, while Belmont was 0–4–1 against teams above them, only earning one point.[5]
