Four Fall CAC Champions to be Crowned on Saturday

The fall championship season is in full swing as four CAC Champions will be crowned on Saturday in field hockey, men's soccer, women's soccer and volleyball. 

The CAC field hockey and women's soccer games will be hosted by Mary Washington in Fredericksburg, Va., Salisbury will host the men's soccer championship in Salisbury, Md. and Christopher Newport will host the volleyball title match in Newport News, Va. 

WOMEN'S SOCCER - #6 York at #5 Mary Washington, 1 p.m. | Live Stats | Video 

Women's soccer will kick off Championship Saturday at 1 p.m. Fifth-seeded Mary Washington (10-8-2) welcomes sixth-seeded York (8-10) to the Battleground complex for a battle of the two lowest tournament seeds. It marks the first time in CAC women's soccer history, and believed to be the first time in all sports in the CAC, that the #5 seed in the playoff tournament will host the championship game.  On the other side, it's the second-straight year, and third time in the last five years, that the #6 team advanced to the CAC women's soccer title conflict.  

Mary Washington will compete in the title game for the second straight year, and is seeking its 14th program title and first since 2009. York qualified for the championship for the second time in the last three years, and is aiming for the third crown in program history. The Spartans defeated CNU in penalty kicks in 2013.
