CARY, N.C. (AP) - Marcus Tracy led Wake Forest to the championship game in the NCAA Men's College Cup, scoring twice in the second half of the Demon Deacons' 2-0 semifinal victory Friday night over ACC rival Virginia Tech.
Tracy scored on a leaping header in the 51st minute and completed the scoring in the 83rd minute to send Wake Forest to the NCAA championship game for the first time in school history. The Demon Deacons (21-2-2) will play for the national title Sunday against Ohio State, a 1-0 winner over Massachusetts in the second semifinal.
"Obviously, we're very excited to advance to the national championship game," said Wake Forest coach Jay Vidovich, whose team was eliminated in the semifinals last year on penalty kicks after playing a scoreless tie with eventual national champion UC Santa Barbara. "It was a great result against a very good team in Virginia Tech."
