Stanford wins 2nd straight soccer title, topping Wake Forest
HOUSTON — When Stanford goalkeeper Andrew Epstein started to lift himself off the ground after his game-winning save in penalty kicks on Sunday, all he saw were his teammates racing towards him.
At first, he wasn’t sure it was over.
Once his teammates made it 20 yards down the field in celebration, Epstein knew they had beaten Wake Forest and were back-to-back national champions.
“At that point you’re just so happy,” said Epstein, who had four saves in regulation and two more in the shootout.
