INDIANAPOLIS - The IUPUI women's soccer team will start a busy week on Tuesday night (Sept. 13) when the Jaguars face Butler at the Butler Bowl at 7:00 p.m.. The Jaguars have been strong in non-conference play so far this season, collecting four wins, including a pair on the road. Head Coach Chris Johnson's team is coming off a 2-1 come-from-behind win at Eastern Illinois on Friday. 

LAST TIME OUT
    IUPUI is coming off a 2-1 victory at Eastern Illinois on Friday, Sept. 9, thanks to goals from seniors Tori Minnich and Catherine Raster. Minnich pulled the Jaguars even in the 60th minute thanks to an assist from Raster. Raster later netted the game-winner in the 84th minute off freshman Maryna Clark's Summit League-leading sixth assist of the season.
    Freshman Sophia Lipka earned the win in goal, playing the final 38-plus minutes without yielding a score. 

QUOTABLE
    "We knew that we could play better so we wanted to come out into the second half with fire. Today's game was all about fight and we battled to get those two goals in the second half. A win is a win and we were just happy to come out of there on top," said senior Catherine Raster following Friday's win at Eastern Illinois.
