Daniel Krueger's late equalizer forced extra time before Wake Forest converted all six penalty kicks to advance.
The Demon Deacons moved to 11-4-3 overall and secured their place in Sunday's quarterfinals, where they will host No. 11 NC State. The advancement marks Wake Forest's first penalty-kick victory since defeating Clemson in the 2024 ACC Championship match.
After a scoreless opening 45 minutes, Boston College broke through in the 82nd minute when Dylan Mafong converted a penalty kick to give the Eagles a 1-0 advantage.
