The 2001 NCAA Division I women's soccer tournament (also known as the 2001 Women's College Cup) was the 20th annual single-elimination tournament to determine the national champion of NCAA Division I women's collegiate soccer. The semifinals and championship game were played at Southern Methodist University's Gerald J. Ford Stadium in University Park, Texas from December 5–7, 2001.

Santa Clara defeated North Carolina in the final, 1–0, to win their first national title. The Broncos (23–2) were coached by Jerry Smith.

The most outstanding offensive player was Aly Wagner from Santa Clara, and the most outstanding defensive player was Danielle Slaton, also from Santa Clara. Wagner and Slaton, along with nine other players, were named to the All-Tournament team.

The tournament's leading scorer, with 5 goals and 4 assists, was Abby Wambach from Florida.
