When OSU was finally announced, all minds starting working their way through the bracket to figure out what the possible path would be to making a deep run in the tournament this year.
The Pokes are the No. 3 seed in the lower-right half of the bracket. That means the Cowgirls will host the first round match at Neal Patterson stadium and they will take on South Dakota State.
In the same region, the No. 2 seed in Southern California. USC came in at No. 9 in the United Soccer Coaches poll last week, OSU was just one spot behind at No. 10.
