QUOTED
"Great win. Obviously, it's a tough place to play. The team had a great first-half performance with a couple of nice goals. Unfortunate to not get a few more. Credit Wisconsin, they came out in the second half and the game turned a little bit and they got a restart goal. It was great to get the third goal, certainly, at that key spot and we ran the rest of the game out. For 70 minutes, I was really pleased with our performance."
-- Indiana head coach Todd Yeagley

"First Big Ten game, that was a big one for us to get three points and get to the top of the table. Obviously, we can play better, but It's still early in the season and we can improve. We're going to keep rolling from here."
-- Indiana D Andrew Gutman

"Every time I get in the game, I just try and make an impact. There is a lot of rotation in the midfield, so every time I go in I'm fresh and ready to go. It seems like every time I hit a set piece, either A.J. (Palazzolo) or (Andrew) Gutman gets a head on it. Hopefully they keep doing that."
-- Indiana MF Trevor Swartz
