The 2022 BYU Cougars women's soccer team represented Brigham Young University during the 2022 NCAA Division I women's soccer season. The Cougars were coached for a 28th consecutive season by Jennifer Rockwood, who was co-coach in 1995 and became the solo head coach in 1996. Before 1995 BYU women's soccer competed as a club team and not as a member of the NCAA. Overall the Cougars had made the NCAA tournament in 22 of the 27 seasons that Rockwood had been the head coach. Joining Rockwood as assistant coaches are Brent Anderson (6th season) and Steve Magleby (5th season) with volunteer assistants Rachel Jorgensen (7th season) and Madie Gates (9th season). The Cougars came off of a season where they were co-champions in the WCC and went 17–4–3, 8–1–0 in the WCC. The Cougars went on to advance to their first ever College Cup, and tied in the championship with Florida State before losing on penalties to finish as national runner–up. The Cougars staff was also named the Women's Staff of the Year. The Cougars enter 2022 having been picked to win the WCC Championship in their final season before heading to the Big 12 Conference for the 2023 season.
