Posted today as updated parking locations for Wednesday's match against Northwestern.

That is basically the same as always. Only difference is that small lot across from the church is unavailable it looks like. The lot behind Assembly Hall (Green Lot) is always the main parking place for a soccer game.

NW had not done it this yr with new coach in regular season, but now gone full Lenhahan park bus mode despite him being gone and have done it throughout Big Ten Tournament. Frustrated Maryland to PK's and now taken IU to Golden Goal OT. No one had done that to IU this year yet (besides Omaha) and it frustrated them to no end and could not create an attack becuase of it. 

0-0 after 90.

Wow. What Celentano just did to keep those shots out of the net was world class. Just incredible mitts on that kid. Immediately to the other md and get the goal. Nice win. 

That series of shots by NW and the stops were heart-stopping!  After IU had attempted many shots and seemed in control in the 2nd and OT.   Whew!
