AFAIK, you have to designate an order prior to the first kick being taken

It used to be that it could only be comprised of the players on the field at the time the whistle blew, but I've seen some things that make me doubt that (e.g. Clemson substituted in a keeper who I believe hadn't played during the came for the men's shootout.)

I've seen the GK substitution done once before. The NCAA rule is copied here:

(7.1.1.1) Only players who are listed on the official NCAA game roster form shall be eligible to participate in the tiebreaker. Each team shall designate either:
(a) 10 different kickers, one of whom may be the goalkeeper; or
(b) 10 different kickers and a goalkeeper who will not participate as a designated kicker in the tiebreaker procedure. The kicking order shall be at the discretion of the kicking team; however, after all the eligible kickers have kicked once, the order of the designated kickers may change.

This does not seem to require the order of kickers to be communicated to the officials, only the names of those eligible to kick. The Stanford players lined up at the half line in kicking order, at least for the 6 who actually kicked, so they knew their planned order. (next in line: Hiatt, Haley, Enge, Doms)

After blocking the first PK, Katie continued off to her right, doing her thing and needing to be sent back to her proper spot:

7.1.1.5 The nonparticipating goalkeeper shall stay on the field of play at one corner of the penalty area. All designated players except the kicker and the designated goalkeepers shall remain in the center circle.

The teams wisely separated themselves at the half line by staying off the college cup logo.

And yes, the confetti was UNC colors.

That's what I thought at the scene, but it seems to be the darker NCAA blue:
