Overview

In the men's championship finals, three-time runners-up Texas Tech were looking to claim their first national title against finals debutants UC-Santa Barbara in a rematch from the Group C finale. Coming into the finals, both teams would defeat Augustana 3–0 in the group stage, ensuring that, regardless of the score from their matchup, they'd both advance with the winner placing first in the group. Texas Tech would win the matchup 2–1 meaning they would face Group B runners-up Minnesota in the round of 16 while UC-Santa Barbara would face Group B winners, 2005 runners-up, and region II tournament champion Vanderbilt. Texas Tech would win their matchup 2–1, then would beat Arizona 4–0 in the quarterfinals and finally would beat reigning champions Michigan 2–1 to advance to the finals again. Meanwhile, UC-Santa Barbara would beat Vanderbilt 1–0, then beat 2002 champions Weber State 1–0, and finally would beat reigning runners-up, Illinois, 5–3 on penalties after a 0–0 game in regulation and overtime. In the finals, UC-Santa Barbara would receive a red card at the start of the second half but the game would remain 0–0 after overtime and extra time, meaning penalty kicks would decide the men's championship for the first time. UC-Santa Barbara would kick first and both teams would score in the first round of kicks. In rounds 2 and 3, UC-Santa Barbara would score while Texas Tech would not, meaning when UC-Santa Barbara scored in the fourth round they'd secure the 2007 men's championship title. This would be UC-Santa Barbara's first men's championship title and the first time both the men's and women's championship title winners represented the same school. UC-Santa Barbara's Joe Ferreira would be named tournament MVP. [2] [3]

In the women's championship finals, reigning champion San Diego State would face 2004 co-champion UC-Santa Barbara. Coming into the finals, San Diego State would win all three group stage matches without conceding a goal while UC-Santa Barbara would lose it's group stage opener to Michigan State and end up second in the group behind them. In the knockout round, San Diego State would defeat region II champion Virginia Tech 2–1 in the quarterfinals then would defeat Michigan State 2–0 in the semifinals. Meanwhile, UC-Santa Barbara would defeat four-time champion Michigan 3–1 in the quarterfinals then after a 0–0 draw following regulation and overtime, they'd defeat 2001 champion Penn State 4–1 in penalty kicks in the semifinals. In the finals, eventual MVP Allie Browne of UC-Santa Barbara would open the scoring in the first minute but Cassidy Runyon of San Diego State would even the score at 1–1 off of a free-kick in the 23rd minute. The score would remain tied at 1–1 after regulation and overtime, meaning penalties would determine the champion. UC-Santa Barbara would kick first, and after both teams scored in the first round, eventual tournament outstanding goalkeeper Emily Ottinia of UC-Santa Barbara would save San Diego State's kicks in the second and third rounds while UC-Santa Barbara would score in both rounds. In the fourth round, UC-Santa Barbara would score their fourth straight penalty and win 4–1. This would be UC-Santa Barbara's second title and first outright due to the title in 2004 being shared. [4] [5]

In the men's open finals, reigning runners-up, Kansas would face finals debutants Missouri. Coming into the finals, Kansas would win all three group stage games while Missouri would tie their group stage finale 1–1 to JMU but would win the group with 7 points. In the quarterfinals, Kansas would face Florida and Missouri would face Oregon with both teams winning 2–1. In the semifinals, Kansas would defeat JMU 2–0 while Missouri would require penalties after the game finished 1–1 which they'd win 4–1. In the finals, the game would be tied 1–1 after regulation meaning overtime would be required for the first time in the men's open division finals. The score would remain the same meaning penalties would determine the men's open champion. Missouri would go on to win 4–2, claiming their 1st men's open title. Missouri's Ross Pfeifer would be named division MVP.

In the women's open finals, Villanova would face UC-Berkeley in what would be the first finals appearance for both teams. Coming into the finals, both teams would win all three group stage games. UC-Berkeley would beat Alabama in the quarterfinals and Arizona in the semifinals, both by a score of 3–0. Meanwhile, Villanova would beat Texas State 1–0 in the quarter finals then beat Virginia 2–0 in the semifinals. In the finals, Villanova would win 3–1 and claim their first women's open title. Villanova's Christina Sangiacomo would be named divisional MVP. This was the only division finals to not require penalties. [1] [6] [7] [8]

Format

The competition consisted of 75 teams: 40 championship teams and 35 open teams. The divisions were further divided into a men's and women's division: 24 men's and 16 women's teams in the championship division and 19 women's and 16 men's teams in the open division. The divisions were then further divided into groups: eight groups of three teams in the men's championship, four teams of four teams in the women's championship and men's open divisions, and five groups of four teams each with one group only having three teams in the women's open division. All four divisions engaged in a round-robin tournament that determined teams able to advance to a knockout stage. Each team played every other team in their group once in pool play which consisted of two 40-minute halves separated by a seven-minute halftime. Pool play utilized the three points for a win system and after pool play, the two highest ranked teams from each group in all but the women's open division advanced to their respective knockout stage, with the third placed team in the men's championship advancing to a consolation bracket while the third and fourth placed teams in the women's championship and men's open divisions being eliminated. In the women's open division, each pool winner automatically advanced in addition to three additional wild-card teams. Positions 1 and 8 were given to first place teams in groups that didn't have a wild-card team in order of tie-breaking procedures, positions 2, 6, and 7 were given to wild-card teams in order of tie-breaking procedures, and positions 5, 3, and 4 were given to the pool winners from the pools of the 2, 6, and 7 positioned wild-card teams, respectively.

Tie-breaking criteria for group play
The ranking of teams in each group was based on the following criteria in order:
  1. Highest number of points
  2. Winner of head-to-head competition
  3. Greatest goal difference
    • Maximum ± 5 goal difference per match
  4. Most goals scored
  5. Most shutouts

In a tie breaking scenario involving more than 2 teams, the tiebreaker procedure would begin. If one team is identified as different and both remaining teams are still tied, the tie breaker procedure is restarted.

If a tie still remained after the first 5 criteria, the following was used to break a tie:

  1. NCAA kicks from the mark
    • If there was a three-way tie, a coin-flip would be conducted. The two teams that chose the same outcome would compete in kicks from the mark between each other. The winner would compete with the last remaining team in kicks from the mark
    • If there's a four-way tie, a drawing of lots would be conducted (only could occur in open division)

Knockout stage games also consisted of two 40-minute halves. The round of 16 and quarterfinals were separated by a seven-minute halftime while the semifinals and finals had a ten-minute halftime. Knockout stage games needed to declare a winner, therefore if a game was tied at the end of regulation, one 15-minute, golden-goal overtime period would begin. If still tied after overtime, kicks from the mark would determine the winner. [8]

Qualification and selections

Each of the six regions received three automatic bids for the men's championship division and two automatic bids for the women's championship that they awarded to its members. The final bids for each division were considered "at-large", and were given out by NIRSA to teams, typically based on their regional tournament results and RPI. [9]

The remaining teams participated in the open division, chosen on a first-come first-serve basis via online registration beginning on October 12, 2007 with a max of 20 teams per gender division. [10]
