Notre Dame men’s soccer is heading to the national championship game of the College Cup following a win over Oregon State. The Irish (13-2-6, 6-0-2 ACC) will return to the title game for the first time since 2013, when the program one its first and only national championship.
It was a sloppy first half for the Irish, who committed several unforced errors and opened themselves up to dangerous opportunities from the Beavers (11-6-5, 5-3-3 Pac-12). One particularly lax defensive series ended with senior defender Paddy Burns clearing the ball from in front of the goal and then sharing a few choice words with his teammates.
