#GoCardinal

Teresa Noyola scored from point-blank range Sunday to help top-ranked Stanford beat No. 3 Duke 1-0 and give the Cardinal their first NCAA women's soccer title after three consecutive attempts. It was the perfect finish to Stanford's unbeaten season.

Stanford seniors Noyola, Camille Levin, Kristy Zuhmehlen and Lindsay Taylor finished their college careers with a record of 95-4-4.

After pounding ACC tournament champion Florida State 3-0 on Friday night in the first semifinal of the College Cup, Stanford has a chance to play once again for the national title. The Cardinal advanced to soccer's version of the Final Four by completing its third straight unbeaten season, a feat that parallels the great University of North Carolina teams with Mia Hamm in the early 1990s.

The NCAA Women's College Cup, taking place this weekend at Kennesaw State Stadium in Kennesaw will be the first NCAA soccer championship held in Georgia since 1968. And one thing is for certain there will be a first-time national champion crowned at this year's NCAA final.

All four College Cup teams were seeded first in their respective brackets, and include three ACC schools—Wake Forest, Duke and Florida State—and two-time NCAA runner-up Stanford, making its fourth consecutive College Cup appearance.

Brandi Chastain took the time out of a busy schedule that includes work as a member of the Capital One Cup Advisory Board, a player for the California Storm of the Women's Premier Soccer League, and raising her young son to talk a little bit about the USA and the World Cup, and the Capital One Cup standings.
