Women’s club soccer wins Open Cup National Championship

San Diego State women’s club soccer celebrates its 3-1 Open Cut National Championship win over Southern California on Feb. 23 at UC Irvine.

San Diego State women’s club soccer defeated Southern California 3-1 in the Open Cup National Championship on Feb. 23 at UC Irvine.

The tournament was originally held in Foley, Ala. last year from Nov. 28 to Dec. 2, but a severe lightning storm delayed the final.

Rather than flying back to Foley, both USC and SDSU agreed to meet halfway to play the final two-and-a-half months later.

Co-head coach Eric Wohl said due to the postponement, the Aztecs were nervous heading into the final but gained confidence following the opening goal.
