The verdict is in...It's an ALL ACC College Cup Final!
In the 1st match, in what has to be an amazing upset, UNC (the 13th seed) defeated Wake Forest (the 1st seed). UNC displayed an early sense of urgency and maintained their composure to render the upset over Wake and advance to the Final. What a sweet sense of revenge for the earlier loss during the regular season!
In the 2nd match, Maryland persevered after over 104 minutes of play to defeat St Johns in double OT, sending the Terps into the Final. St. John's bid to represent the Big East in the Final ended when a spectacular free kick by Maryland's Zusi found the back of the net.
Now that the Final has been decided, predictions anyone? Will Maryland continue it's phenomenal winning streak? Or will UNC avenge their regular season loss to Maryland (as they did with Wake) and claim the College Cup Championship?
There is no doubt that 1) The match should be very exciting and 2) K Dorm Alum(s) and teammates will be 2008 College Cup Champs!
BTW - Kudos to Nic Millington (91 -M), Daniel Wenzel (90 - D) and their Deacon Demons teammates on a stellar season - Wire-to-Wire #1 ranking with only 2 losses!
Til next time...
