Volk's goal was his first of the season and came on a corner kick.

The Deacons honored the memory of Genna Wiley, the late wife of former men's soccer trainer Steve Wiley. The Wake Forest players wore pink uniforms, which were auctioned off during a silent auction while the game was in progress. All proceeds from the silent auction will benefit the North Carolina Triad of Susan G. Komen for the Cure.
