INDIANAPOLIS - The IU Indianapolis men's soccer team will host Milwaukee (5-4-4, 3-1-2 HL) on Senior Day on Saturday (Oct. 17) at Carroll Stadium at 4:00 p.m. The Jaguars will honor seniors
Declan Finnegan,
Jose Antonio Herrera,
Nathaniel Isom,
Luke Kegerreis,
Noah Kummrow and
Jago Thompson-Roberts prior to Saturday's contest.
The Jaguars (3-7-2, 0-5-1 HL) earned a result in their last Horizon League contest, playing Robert Morris to a 1-1 draw last Wednesday at Carroll Stadium. IU Indy trailed for the majority of the match, but drew even on a Herrera penalty kick in the 80th minute.
Herrera leads the team with five goals on the season while freshman
Thomas Weinrich has two goals and an assist. Freshman midfielder
Santiago Sanchez has a team-high two assists and is one of three players to have totaled 1,000 minutes this season, along with junior midfielder
Jai Dindiyal and Herrera. In goal, rookie
Peter Field owns a 1.67 goals against average and 47 saves.
QUOTABLE
"Overall, the performance today was fantastic for 85 of the 90 minutes. The boys battled hard, created lots of shots and had lots of the ball in dangerous areas. The different today was two set pieces where we were not good enough and it ultimately cost us. We were able to go young today with nine freshmen playing good minutes as we prepare for an important match against Milwaukee on Saturday," Boom said following the road loss at Bellarmine on Tuesday.
