And then there were four. The NCAA Division I women’s soccer tournament is down to four teams, as No. 2 Wake Forest and No. 3 Stanford battle in one semifinal matchup, and top-seeded Duke takes on No. 2 North Carolina on the other side of the bracket. Both College Cup semifinal matchups will take place at WakeMed Soccer Park in Cary, North Carolina.
The Duke-North Carolina women’s soccer rivalry dates to 1989, and Friday night’s national semifinal will be the 56th meeting between the two programs. The Tar Heels have the most national championships with 22 but haven’t won one since 2012. Stanford is seeking its third national title since 2017. The Cardinal lost to Florida State 5-1 in the championship game a season ago.
