IUPUI (0-3, 0-1 Horizon) dropped a 2-1 Horizon League opener to Cleveland State on Saturday night, yielding an own goal in the final minute of regulation. The Jaguars got a near perfect start when Pedro Valladao tallied a goal in the game's second minute and held onto the advantage until early in the second half. However, CSU got even against IUPUI goalkeeper Michael Buck before earning the victory with less than 40 seconds left before the final horn. 

"You definitely don't want to lose that way, but these are the lessons we have to learn," head coach Brian Barnett said afterwards. "It comes down to we made too many critical mistakes in critical areas of the game - we made two more than they did and lost on it."

For the year, Valladao leads the Jaguars with three points in three games while fellow Brazilian Yan Souza has the team's other goal. Junior Sam Gavin has IUPUI's other assist, having setup Valladao's goal on Saturday night. In goal, Buck has a 2.00 goals against average and 10 saves in his three starts. Gavin and Harold Agyeman-Prempeh lead the field players in minutes playing, having not come off the field yet this season. 

Valladao has a team-high five shot attempts, having put four on frame. Souza, Gavin and Seth Vang have four shot attempts each through the season's first three games. 

The Jaguars are slowly getting healthier as well as seniors Joshua Ayala and Uriel Macias and junior Sean Siasia all made their season debuts against Cleveland State on Saturday. Macias played 31 minutes while Siasia went 30 minutes in the loss. Ayala came on in the second half and appeared for 16 minutes. 

DePaul (2-3) has tallied 10 goals in just five games and dropped a pair of overtime contests already this season. Istvan Wilhelms (3 goals, 3 assists) and Philipp Konigstein (3 goals, 2 assists) lead the Blue Demons' offense while Quentin Low has played the bulk of the team's minutes in goal. Low has a 1.77 GAA and 16 saves in five starts and has all five of DePaul's decisions so far this season. 

DePaul is 0-2 this season on the road, having dropped overtime decisions at Northern Illinois and UIC to start the year. 

IUPUI is 0-1 all-time against DePaul, having dropped a 3-0 decision in Chicago on Sept. 11 of last season.
