Could happen. They schedule tough. I do think this team is a bit better this year., though.

No score 10 min. into the match but seeing reports our goalie, Jude Michel, is showing some freshman nerves.  We've had a couple of good scoring opportunities but shots were deflected.

'31 |  Clemson draws first blood and takes a 1-0 lead.  They've only taken 4 shots thus far but 3 were on goal.

[Class of '66 Old Fart]

Halftime and Clemson leads 1-0.  Hoosiers 6 total shots; 2 on goal; 3 corners.  Clemson 5, 4 & 2.  Yellow card assessed against Breckin Minzey for IU and a yellow against a Clemson player.

2-2 is your Final, 2H adjustments were very good, probably helped since Clemson had to play 10.

Hoosiers were down 2-0 when Clemson got a red card in the 64th minute.  Roughly 2 min. later. Palmer Ault put us on the board with a PK.  Then in the 81st min. Jacopo Fedrizzi tied it up with an assist from Nolan Kinsella.  Hoosiers finished with 12 total shots; 4 on goal; 7 corners.  Clemson 8 total shots; 6 on goal; 4 corners. 

Here's the tying goal from Fedrizzi

Couple of game recaps below.  During the match I saw reports of a couple of Hoosiers going down with injuries/cramps but haven't seen any more details.

Not worried about the injuries/cramps. Yeagley indicated afterward in his postgame presser that everyone should be fine going forward.

Why can’t I buy an Indiana soccer jersey anywhere? This seems like a missed opportunity.

IUMS vs San Francisco.

Holden Brown starts in goal for Indiana tonight. The Virginia transfer came to IU in 2024 but missed the entire season with an injury. Charlie Heuer and Josh Maher were dinged up in the Clemson match. They won't start tonight.

The Live Stat link apparently isn't working but San Fran scored 8 min. in and leads 1-0.

[Class of '66 Old Fart]

OOF.  Now 2-0.  Victor Akoum fouls Beason in the box, and SF scores on the PK.  Midway through first half.

[Hoosierfan1901]

Gonna be another slow start to the season again

GOOOOOOOOAAAAAALLLLLLL
2-1 USF

39’ Fedrizzi hits the back of the net

[Class of '66 Old Fart]

Now 2-1.

39' |  Oduro lays it off for Jacopo Fedrizzi, whose shot from outside the box finds the side of the net off a deflection. It's his second of the season, this one on his dominant left foot. Much-needed goal for momentum purposes.

[Class of '66 Old Fart]

2-1 at the break.
