NCAA Men’s Soccer Sweet 16 decided after exciting second round

The 2021 NCAA Division I men’s soccer championship is down to 16 teams after a full day of soccer on Sunday.

The highest-scoring game of the day came from Hofstra’s 8-2 win over No. 12 Penn State. The Pride took a 3-0 lead into the second half and they wouldn’t stop there as they would tack on another four in the second to get out to a 8-0 lead.

Penn State got two back in the last 20 minutes of the game, but it wasn’t enough.

No. 8 Clemson and Denver went all the way to double overtime to see who would advance. The Tigers would ultimately come out on top thanks to a penalty kick from Oskar Agren in the 107’ to win 1-0. Clemson’s defense stepped up in big situations too.

Goalkeeper George Marks made a great save in the first half in order to keep the game scoreless.
