QUOTABLE: "I was proud of the cumulative effort that Uriel put forward today," head coach #Brian Barnett# said after the 1-1 draw with Eastern Illinois. "Today, he did a lot of the little things that contributed to an overall effort. I thought he was very engaged in the attack, did a good job of tracking back and defending when we needed him to and made an effort to get his teammates involved. As a senior, I think he kind of set the tone today and had one of his best games of the year." 

CLOSE, BUT...: Six of IUPUI's 13 losses have come by a single goal, including three Horizon League defeats.

JAGS IN THE COMMUNITY: Barnett and the Jaguars began a season-long partnership with Indianapolis Public Schools on Friday (Oct. 20), visiting a local school as part of the 'Real Men Read' mentoring program.
