The Jaguars
For IUPUI, Wednesday's (Oct. 28) match is an opportunity to get back on track before making a run at the Summit League tournament. 

The Jags' senior cast of Clint Hoffar and Eduardo Cortes have had extremely productive seasons. 

Hoffar leads the Jags' scoring efforts with five goals and an assist. The team captain netted those five shots on just 10 attempts on goal. 

Cortes' 83 saves through 14 games is good for third in the NCAA. The Dallas, Texas native recently moved into second on the all-time saves list in the IUPUI record book.

Junior Cristian Soto is the team's second-leading point man with two goals and two assists on the season (six points). Freshman Nick Anderson and sophomore Jacob Singer both lead the Jags with three assists. 

Freshman defender Ben Thornton has turned into an absolute anchor for the Jags' back line as the Linden, Mich. native leads the squad in minutes played. 

IUPUI has gotten a recent boost in offensive production as the Jags have attempted 60 shots in the last four contests, a significant rise in offensive chances. Four games back, sophomore Emmanuel Usen returned to the pitch, creating opportunities on the attack. Just two games ago, sophomore Uriel Macias returned as well, netting a goal and an assist in his first game back. 

The Norse
NKU is 8-4-3 in 2015 and coming off back-to-back 2-1 overtime victories against Eastern Illinois and Green Bay. 

The Norse have been significantly outshot this season (240-143, 96-62 on goal) despite the winning percentage, but they've outscored opponents 11-7 in the second half of games. 

NKU has went to overtime in their last four matches, five of their last six, and seven of their last nine. With eight total overtime games, they're one of the few teams in the country to have more games need extra time than IUPUI (seven). 

Sophomore Kobie Qualah leads NKU with six goals this year, including three of the teams' four in the last two matches.
