Box Score

INDIANAPOLIS – The Eastern Kentucky University soccer team was edged on the road by IUPUI, 1-0, on Thursday night at Carroll Stadium.
 
IUPUI (3-1-1) scored the decisive goal in the 31^st minute when Renae Blevins launched a free kick into the bottom left corner of the net.
 
EKU (1-4) had chances to level, as the Colonels outshot the Jaguars, 12-10, on the evening; however, the IUPUI defense held on for the clean sheet.

"IUPUI wanted the game more than we did, Plain and simple," head coach Matt Cosinuke said. "We didn't play to our identity tonight and that's unacceptable."
 
Junior Taran McMillan came off the bench to lead Eastern with three shots, two of which were put on frame. Senior Marian Wolski, sophomore Baylee Lanter and freshman Audrey Anderson all fired two shots in the defeat.
 
Blevins and Autumn Weeks paced the Jaguars with three shots apiece.
 
Junior goalkeeper Billie Clark made six saves on the night.

"We have to get back up, dust ourselves off and get ready for NKU," Cosinuke added.
 
EKU returns to action on Sunday when the Colonels host in-state rival Northern Kentucky at 1 p.m.
