SPRINGFIELD, Ill. – The UIndy men's soccer team rebounded with a 2-0 win over Illinois Springfield on Sunday, after a tough loss in Friday night's game against McKendree. 

This is the fifth shutout victory for UIndy this season, and the team's first since Oct. 5 against Drury.

HOW IT HAPPENED
The first half quickly turned in favor of the Greyhounds, after a straight red card was given to the Prairie Stars goalkeeper, Landon Amick, just six minutes into the contest, forcing Illinois Springfield to play down a man the remaining 84 minutes. 

Roman Beko took the game over in the first half, as the junior forward racked up five shots, three shots on goal, and two goals to show for his efforts. His goals came in the 24th and 33rd minutes, on two low driven shots that beat the backup Prairie Stars' goalkeeper, Edoardo Pinna.

After Beko's two goals in the first half, the Hounds settled in and were content with seeing the game out. There were only eight shots combined by both teams in the second half, compared to the 12 taken in the first half. 

Alexander Veridiano and Alvaro Sanchez had the two shots on goal for the Greyhounds in the second half, while Joey Schrand made a stop with just under two minutes to go to secure the 2-0 clean sheet win for UIndy.

INSIDE THE BOX
- Today is the first multi goal game of Beko's career with UIndy.
- Lucas Bedleg has recorded at least a goal or an assist in three of the last four games, which is the longest streak of his career.
- Schrand made his third appearance of the season, and picked up his first complete game shutout since 2022 against Drury.
- Sanchez added four shots to his team leading total, 44.

UP NEXT
The Hounds will conclude its regular season on Sunday Nov. 2 against Lewis, and will have a chance to earn hosting rights in the GLVC Tournament first round with a win.
