 The Penn State women's soccer team defeated Duke, 1-0, en route to its first-ever National Championship Sunday afternoon at WakeMed Soccer Park. The Nittany Lions tallied their eighth-straight shutout and 15th overall on the season. Senior Raquel Rodriguez (San Jose, Costa Rica) tallied her sixth goal of the season in the 72nd minute. "When you get to a National Championship game obviously you never expect it to be easy, but I thought that Duke gave us absolutely everything we could handle today," head coach Erica Walsh said. "They came out in the first 20 minutes with the crowd behind them. They put us on our back foot and we had to struggle through that time and could not quite find our rhythm. Once we got past that time I really felt like we got back on top of the game. That is an extremely good Duke team that we were able to beat today. Congratulations to Robbie Church and his program. He runs a tremendous program."
