Women’s Soccer Colleges in Ohio

Ohio has 44 NCAA women’s soccer programmes across 13 conferences — 13 in Division I, 10 in Division II and 21 in Division III.

The median squad carries 29 players. 7 of these programmes carry 25 or fewer, which is where a place is usually easier to win. 12 have won 60% or more of their matches across the seasons on record. Across the state 274 players are in their final year, so that many places open up next summer.

Squad figures are from the 2026 season as published by each programme on its own athletics site. Win percentages cover 2023–2025, which are complete seasons — the season in progress is not counted until it ends.
