Stanford kept its hopes for a third consecutive NCAA men’s soccer championship alive and kept Coastal Carolina from reaching its first national quarterfinal with a 2-0 win Sunday night in the third round of the 2017 Men’s College Cup.
Stanford took a 1-0 lead 5 minutes into the second half on a Tanner Beason penalty kick at Laird Q. Cagan Stadium in Palo Alto, Calif., after Coastal senior forward Darius Strambler was called for a penalty in the box on Stanford’s Bryce Marion.
Coastal keeper Braulio Linares-Ortiz dived to his left as Beason deposited the shot in the net low to this right.
