ALEXANDRIA, La. -- The third time was a charm for the Mississippi Valley State women's soccer team. 

The Devilettes, who had fell short the last two years in the SWAC Tournament championship game, upended rival Jackson State 2-0 Sunday to win its third title in school history. 

The Devilettes (9-9-2) will find out who they will be playing in the NCAA Tournament on Monday during the Division I Women's Soccer Selection show on www.ncaa.com. The show will begin at 3:30 p.m. at http://www.ncaa.com/live/player?vid=2012/564&date=2012/11/05 . 

MVSU's Shanesse Spratt, who was recently selected First Team All-SWAC, scored both goals, the final one on an assist from Alexandra Neumann. Her first goal came eight minutes into the matchup while the final one happened at the 78:36 mark. 

Valley's goalie Shelby Willcocks had five saves.
