BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – The No. 4-ranked Indiana University men's soccer team defeated the Northwestern Wildcats, 1-0, in overtime on Sunday afternoon in the Big Ten Tournament quarterfinals at Jerry Yeagley Field at Bill Armstrong Stadium.
With the victory, the Hoosiers advance to play the No. 20-ranked Wisconsin Badgers on Friday, Nov. 11 in the semifinals at Grand Park in Westfield, Ind. Game time will be 2:30 p.m. ET.
Indiana improves to 11-1-6 on the season overall with the victory, remaining perfect this season at Armstrong Stadium with a record of 7-0-3. Winners of three in a row, IU has posted a record of 5-0-2 in the team's last seven games. Northwestern's season comes to an end with a mark of 6-11-1.
Swartz scored the game-winner for the Hoosiers just 59 seconds in to overtime on the assist from Austin Panchot. GK Christian Lomeli posted his third shutout of the season – the 10th overall for the Hoosiers this year.
The Hoosiers controlled possession for the majority of regulation, out-shooting the Wildcats, 14-6. Although Northwestern had six shots in the match, none were on goal as Lomeli wasn't bothered much during the contest.
In overtime, the Hoosiers wasted little time finding a winner. On the attack down the right side of the pitch, Panchot sent a great cross in to the middle of the 18-yard box. The ball found Swartz, who buried a header from 12-yards out in to the side netting, giving IU the victory. Swartz's fifth goal of the season was his second game-winning score of 2016.
With the victory, IU advances to the semifinals of the Big Ten Tournament to face No. 20 Wisconsin, who beat Ohio State, 3-0, on Sunday to move on. IU, who has won 12 Big 10 Championships, played the Badgers to a 0-0 draw earlier this year in Madison, Wisc.
The Big Ten Tournament semifinals and championship will be played at Grand Park – The Sports Campus at Westfield, Indiana on Friday, Nov. 11 and Sunday, Nov. 13. This marks the first time the Big Ten Men's Soccer Tournament will be held at a neutral location in addition to being Grand Park's first collegiate soccer tournament.
