"On behalf of Bucknell Women's Soccer, we are grateful for the unwavering support we receive from our alumni, parents and friends.

Your vital role has propelled us to new heights, ensuring a first-class Division I experience for our student-athletes. Together, we'll continue to compete for championships, fueled by your commitment and belief in our program. Thank you for being the driving force behind our success." - Head Coach Kelly Cook

No Bucknell team has seen more success in the last 10 years than Kelly Cook's women's soccer program. The Bison won back-to-back Patriot League championships in 2016 and 2017, and then they surpassed that feat by winning three in a row from 2021-23. The 2024 squad won the outright Patriot League regular-season title with a 7-2 record, but Bucknell’s quest for a “Four Peat” ended in cruel fashion with a 10-round penalty kick shootout loss to Boston University in the tournament final. Despite that heartbreak, that will go down as one of the most dominant four-year stretches in league history. The 2025 season was a bit of a reset after heavy graduation losses, including a couple of Patriot League MVPs in Teresa Deda and Katie Schiano, but the Bison will return the bulk of their starting lineup along with a highly regarded recruiting class next fall. Off the pitch, women’s soccer continues to be one of Bucknell’s top-performing teams academically. The Bison combined for a 3.62 GPA last fall, with nine student-athletes achieving perfect 4.0s.
