College Cup: This is Stanford’s seventh NCAA semifinal appearance overall and sixth in the past seven seasons. Stanford has advanced to three finals and won the 2011 national championship. Last year, Stanford was eliminated in the third round by eventual champion UCLA and missed the College Cup for the first time since 2007.

Stanford’s NCAA History: The Cardinal has qualified for 17 consecutive NCAA tournaments and 24 overall. Included are 11 quarterfinal appearances, seven semifinals, and three finals. With its penalty-kick victory over Florida in the quarterfinals, Stanford extended its home NCAA unbeaten streak to 25. Stanford’s all-time NCAA tournament record is 44-19-6 (.681), including 33-9-3 (.767) in 12 seasons under coach Paul Ratcliffe.

Tournament Recap: In four NCAA tournament matches -- all at home -- Stanford has combined to outshoot its opponents, 97-24. However, every match has been in doubt. In the first round, Stanford rallied from a 2-0 deficit by scoring five goals in the final 30 minutes for a 5-2 victory over Cal State Fullerton. In the second and third rounds, first-half goals stood in 1-0 victories over Arkansas and Washington. And, in the quarterfinal, Stanford finally ousted Florida on penalty kicks after tying, 2-2.

Friday’s Opponent, Florida State: The Seminoles (22-1-1) are playing their best soccer, carrying a 19-match unbeaten streak and eight-match winning streak. Florida State advanced to its fourth consecutive College Cup with a 5-0 victory over South Carolina and hasn’t allowed a goal in nearly a month -- that’s five consecutive shutouts and a 450:03 shutout streak. FSU tied North Carolina for the Atlantic Coast Conference regular-season title with a 9-0-1 record and captured the ACC tournament crown 1-0 over eventual College Cup qualifier Virginia. The Seminoles dominated the All-ACC awards, with Dagny Brynjarsdottir named the Offensive Player of the Year, Kristin Grubka was Defensive Player of the Year and Mark Krikorian was Coach of the Year. Both players are Hermann Trophy semifinalists.

The Stanford-Florida State Series: Stanford leads the all-time series, 2-0. The teams met two consecutive years in the NCAA tournament, with Stanford combining to outscore FSU, 8-0. In the 2011 semifinals in Kennesaw, Ga., Stanford freshman Chioma Ubogagu had a goal and an assist to lead the Cardinal to a 3-0 victory. In a 2010 quarterfinal at Stanford, the Cardinal scored four second-half goals to beat FSU, 5-0, with Hermann Trophy winner Christen Press among the team’s five goal-scorers.

The Stanford-Virginia Series: Virginia coach Steve Swanson led Stanford to two Pac-10 titles, three NCAA appearances, and a 49-28-4 record from 1996-99 as the Cardinal’s coach. He never has been on the winning side in a Stanford-Virginia matchup, losing as Stanford’s coach in 1999, and in two matches as Virginia’s coach, in 2000 and 2007. Stanford leads the all-time series, 3-2, but this would be their first matchup since Stanford won 2-1 in 2007 at Santa Clara in the only coaching matchup between Swanson and Stanford’s Paul Ratcliffe while at their current schools.

The Stanford-Texas A&M Series: Stanford leads the all-time series, 5-3. The teams haven’t played since 2005 -- Stanford’s only match in the series under Paul Ratcliffe -- when the Aggies won 1-0 in Knoxville, Tenn. The teams met once in the NCAA tournament, with Texas A&M winning, 1-0, in the 2001 third round. Stanford’s most recent victory was in 2002, 1-0 in overtime.

Quarterfinal Recap -- Stanford 2, Florida 2 (4-3 PK’s): Florida quickly answered goals by Taylor Uhl and Kendall Romine to force overtime. In penalty kicks, Florida’s first two attempts hit the post and was saved, while Romine and Lo’eau LaBonta converted Stanford’s initial attempts. Goalkeeper Jane Campbell finished off the match by scoring on Stanford’s fifth and final attempt.

Third-Round Recap -- Stanford 1, Washington 0: Lo’eau LaBonta scored on a first-half rebound of her own saved penalty kick. LaBonta scored her team-leading 13th goal of the season at 42:20 just after Ryan Walker-Hartshorn was fouled from behind as she awaited a high pass from Laura Liedle in the box. LaBonta’s penalty was blocked by Husky goalkeeper Megan Kufeld, but LaBonta charged the ball and punched in the rebound from point-blank range.
 
Second-Round Recap -- Stanford 1, Arkansas 0: Lo’eau LaBonta scored on a penalty kick at 23:13 after Taylor Uhl was fouled in the box, to account for the only goal in the match. Stanford outshot Arkansas, 24-6, but the Razorbacks (9-7-6) looked dangerous at times, with Jane Campbell saving three shots in picking up her 13th shutout of the season.

First-Round Recap -- Stanford 5, Cal State Fullerton 2: No. 1-seeded Stanford didn’t intimidate Big West Conference champion Cal State Fullerton, which bolted to a 2-0 lead in their first-round match on Friday at Cagan Stadium with a penalty kick and an interception and goal in the first 29 minutes. It was the first two-goal deficit Stanford faced all season and the first at home since 2009. Though Stanford settled down and outshot the Titans 20-0 in the second half, the Cardinal had nothing to show it over the first 60 minutes. But that changed with a Chioma Ubogagu free kick at 60:47. Ubogagu and Taylor Uhl combined to score five goals in 27 minutes for a 5-2 Stanford victory.

She plans to work in business development or business strategy and one day start her own company.

NCAA Champions: Stanford has two players who were starters in the 2011 NCAA College Cup final (Dec. 4) when the Cardinal beat Duke, 1-0, in Kennesaw, Ga., for the program’s first national championship: Kendall Romine in central defense and Chioma Ubogagu at forward. Romine played all 90 minutes. The only other current Stanford player to see action in that match was Alex Doll, who played 11 minutes and cleared away the ball in the final seconds to run out the clock. Hannah Farr, Lo’eau LaBonta, and Lauren Schmidt also were on that team, and Haley Rosen redshirted (of the team’s eight seniors, she will return next season).

Kendall Romine: A graduate student in international relations, Romine is a fifth-year senior who started in the 2011 NCAA championship match as a redshirt freshman. Romine has been a part of three College Cup teams and is 104-10-8 in her five seasons. Romine has been a crucial part of the central defense, first alongside Alina Garciamendez and now Maddie Bauer. Romine earned an undergraduate degree in international relations with a minor in Spanish, and will earn her master’s this fall in international relations before heading to law school. Going into this season, she had one goal. This year, she has two, one on a penalty kick and another on a header in the NCAA quarterfinals against Florida. She also took the first PK against Florida and converted it, helping the Cardinal to a 4-3 shootout victory after the teams drew 2-2.

Stanford and the 2015 World Cup: Stanford alumnae could represent four of the 24 nations taking part in the 2015 World Cup (June 6-July 5 in Canada).  Stanford has six former players on the latest rosters of qualifying teams – Kelley O’Hara ’10 and Christen Press ’11 of the United States, Alina Garciamendez ’12 and Teresa Noyola ’12 of Mexico, Rachel Quon ’13 of Canada, and Ali Riley ‘10 of New Zealand. All were teammates on Stanford’s 2009 team that went 25-1 and reached the school’s first NCAA final. In addition, Rachel (Buehler) Van Hollebeke ’07 and goalkeeper Nicole Barnhart ’04 have been active on the U.S. national team in the past year and could be in the mix for final roster spots.

U-20 World Cup: Three Stanford players -- sophomore goalkeeper Jane Campbell, sophomore defender Stephanie Amack, and freshman midfielder Andi Sullivan -- were on the U.S. team at the FIFA Under-20 World Cup in Canada in August. The U.S. reached the quarterfinals before losing to North Korea on penalty kicks.
