The 2023 Big South Conference women's soccer tournament was the postseason women's soccer tournament for the Big South Conference held from November 2 through November 5, 2023. The tournament was hosted by the Sportsplex at Matthews in Matthews, North Carolina. The four team-team single-elimination tournament consisted of two rounds based on seeding from regular season conference play. Radford were the defending champions,[1] and they were the first seed in the 2023 tournament. They successfully defended their title by again defeating USC Upstate in the Final. The 2022 final was also contested between Radford and USC Upstate.[2] [3] The conference tournament title was the ninth for the Radford women's soccer program, all of which have come under head coach Ben Sohrabi. The title was also Radford's fourth in six years.[4] As tournament champions, Radford earned the Big South's automatic berth into the 2023 NCAA Division I women's soccer tournament.
The top four teams in the regular season earned a spot in the tournament. No tiebreakers were required as each of the top four teams finished with a unique point total in conference play.[5]
