Valparaiso University welcomes Southern Illinois soccer

Next Up in Valpo Soccer: With six points already in its back pocket from the first two games of the MVC schedule, the Valpo soccer team looks to make it nine points from three matches Wednesday evening as it welcomes Southern Illinois to Brown Field.

Previously: Extra time in Terre Haute. Last spring, it was the MVC Tournament semifinal match. Friday, it was a regular season matchup. In any case, the result was the same — a golden goal from sophomore Lindsey DuSatko to give the Valpo soccer team a 1-0 victory at Indiana State. Dana Fish and Nicole Norfolk picked up the assists on Dusatko’s 95th-minute match-winner as Valpo won its third straight contest.

Looking Ahead: The Beacons make the longest trip of the MVC slate, traveling to Springfield, Mo. to face Missouri State on Sunday, Oct. 3.

Following the Beacons: Wednesday’s match will be broadcast live on ESPN+ and will have live stats available via ValpoAthletics.com. All remaining home matches and select road matches will be carried live on The Valley on ESPN.

Head Coach John Marovich: In his 14th season at the helm of the Valpo program, John Marovich holds a 108-103-37 (.510) record both overall and at Valpo as a head coach. The 2014 Horizon League Coach of the Year, Marovich holds Valpo’s all-time records for both victories and winning percentage.
