Rally Falls Short in Defeat to No. 2 Stanford

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. – The No. 7 Florida State soccer team's comeback bid came up one goal short in a 2-1 loss to No. 2 Stanford on Thursday night.
Playing their second No. 2-ranked team in as many games, the Seminoles (8-2-2, 4-2-1 ACC) trailed 2-0 in the first half, but got to within one with an 84th-minute goal by junior forward Jordynn Dudley. However, despite facing extended offensive pressure in the final six minutes, the Cardinal (12-1-1, 6-0-1 ACC) prevented the tying goal to extend their win streak to six.
Thursday was the team's annual Paint it Pink match, where the Seminoles wore special pink uniforms that are being auctioned off, with proceeds going to the Walker Breast Program at Tallahassee Memorial Healthcare in support of breast cancer patients. Fans can bid on the jerseys here until 11:59 p.m. ET on Thursday, October 30.
In a matchup between two of the top three teams in the ACC standings and a rematch of the 2023 national championship game, Thursday was the first-ever meeting between the two teams outside of the NCAA Tournament, and just the third of seven not in the NCAA College Cup semifinal or national title game. FSU falls to 3-4-0 all-time against Stanford in the first ACC contest and first game in Tallahassee in the series.
Dudley's goal gives her five on the season, second-most on the team, and 28 in her career. She extended her point streak to 10 consecutive games, with multiple points in three games in a row and five of the last six. Sophomore forward Solai Washington got the assist, her second in 2025 and fourth of her career.
With the loss, Florida State's home unbeaten streak is snapped at 33 consecutive games. The stretch, which began late in the 2022 season, was third-longest in program history. The team's 84th-minute goal extends their school-record goal streak to 67 consecutive games.
FSU out-shot Stanford 16-9 and the Cardinal had a 6-5 edge in shots on goal. The home side earned five corner kicks and the visitors had three.
Dudley had a game-best six shots, two on goal, and senior defender Heather Gilchrist and sophomore forward Wrianna Hudson both had two shots. In goal, redshirt sophomore Addie Todd made a season-high four saves, one short of tying her career high. Her Cardinal counterpart also stopped four shots.
Stanford took a 1-0 lead at 5:37 and made it 2-0 at 35:31. In between goals, Florida State had seven shots, including three that were saved.
Senior midfielder Kameron Simmonds had a chance stopped in the 14th minute before Gilchrist had a shot go just wide. Dudley nearly tied it in the 24th minute, but her shot was over the crossbar. Back-to-back saves in the 29th and 30th minutes on shots by senior midfielder Enasia Colon and Dudley kept the Seminoles goalless, and Hudson put one high in the 34th.
Trailing at the half for the first time this season, Florida State had an 11-5 edge in shots in the opening 45 minutes, with both teams recording three shots on goal.
The Cardinal had the first four shots of the second half and Todd made three saves in the opening 15 minutes. The Seminoles then had the final five shots of the game, which culminated in Dudley's goal in the 84th minute.
Leading up to the score, Hudson had a chance saved in the 65th minute on a header to set up a corner kick. Gilchrist then had a header go wide on the ensuing chance.
Dudley scored at 83:46 to make it 2-1. After dribbling down the sideline and approaching the edge of the 18-yard box, Washington sent a centering pass in. The pass found Dudley coming in at the top of the six, and she scored off her chest amid traffic.
Florida State continued to apply pressure in the final six minutes but could not net the equalizer.
The Seminoles held a 5-4 advantage in shots in the second half, though the Cardinal had three shots on goal to FSU's two.
Florida State stays at home to host RV Cal on Sunday, October 19. Kickoff at the Seminole Soccer Complex is at 1 p.m. ET.
