NCAA College Cup Final Score: Stanford takes out Akron in penalties

After ten rounds of penalties at Sporting Park in Kansas City, Stanford will meet Clemson in the NCAA College Cup final.

Our Game Two match up was #8 Stanford up against #4 Akron.

Stanford and Akron enter the tournaments as some of the highest scoring team with Akron hovering around 3.7 goals per game, while Stanford sits on an average of 2.7 GPGs. This post season, Stanford Standout and USMNT up-and-comer Jordan Morris has already tallied three goals in the post season.

By kick off the temperature had dropped significantly, but that didn't quiet a vocal group of Akron supporters, and it seemed from the start that this would be the game with more action.
