IUMS picks up preseason win against Loyola Chicago

[Sam_Beishuizen]

It's a shame the game got moved out of Bloomington so late. Looking forward to seeing them play Thursday night. The Hoosiers put up three unanswered goals only to give up two late tonight. That's a good sign for the attack...

Hot take: Richard Ballard ends the year in the top-two in scoring at Indiana this season.

EDIT: Although this game was originally ruled a 3-2 win, the first period apparently didn't count. So IU lost 2-0. Great pick up there, @snowling!

Sam, I'm confused. Did the informal period scoring count in the total? Please clarify if you know the outcome; not that it matters since this was an exibition game.

Hoosiers Fall to Loyola University Chicago, 2-0

WESTFIELD, Ind. – The No. 14-ranked Indiana University men's soccer team opened up the 2016 exhibition season with a 2-0 setback to Loyola University Chicago at Grand Park in Westfield, Ind. on Tuesday night.

Prior to the start of the formal game, the two teams played one informal 35 minute period with players that were not scheduled to see as much time in the formal game getting an opportunity to play extended minutes.

In that informal period, the Hoosiers came away with a 3-0 win. Richard Ballard led the way for the Hoosiers, tallying a goal and an assist in the victory. Trevor Swartz and Austin Panchot also scored for Indiana, while Cory Thomas notched an assist.

"In the first period we came out and scored three great goals and I thought the team performed well," IU head coach Todd Yeagley said. "In the second and third periods, we weren't as sharp as we needed to be. We need to be sharper and we know that."

The game was moved to the new indoor field at Grand Park after heavy rains in Bloomington made the pitch at Armstrong Stadium unplayable on Tuesday.

The Hoosiers will face Oakland in an exhibition match on Thursday, Aug. 18 at Jerry Yeagley Field at Bill Armstrong Stadium. Kickoff is scheduled for 7:30 p.m.

Go Hoosiers!

Ha, this is a good catch. Originally, the team announced that it had won 3-2 via a Tweet that was taken down in the time since. So I trust that score, a 2-0 loss, as being the actual result.

Thanks, Sam. I never saw any tweets about a final outcome, but I had to work late and cannot check those things at work. I appreciate your response. GBR!
