BLOOMINGTON, Ind. — After an eventful homestand, No. 9-ranked Indiana (1-1-1) makes the short trip up to the Hoosier State capital for its annual meeting with Butler (2-0-1) on Wednesday (Sept. 4) night inside the Sellick Bowl.
Kickoff is set for 7 p.m. ET. Tickets are on sale online or at the ticket booth at Hinkle Fieldhouse, adjacent to the Sellick Bowl, on matchday. Fans unable to attend the match can watch on the FloSports digital platform.
KICKING OFF
• Senior forward Tommy Mihalic was named Big Ten Offensive Player of the Week on Tuesday, scoring three goals in two games as the Hoosiers took a 2-2 draw with No. 8-ranked Notre Dame before defeating Yale, 2-0.
• The Hoosiers and Bulldogs have met 35 times and in 24 of the last 25 seasons. The last time the programs played in Indianapolis in 2022, IU recovered from a 1-0 deficit to win 2-1. Indiana has won the last three matchups as well as four of the last five.
• IU is 110-14-9 (.861) all-time against opponents from its home state.
ABOUT THE BULLDOGS
• Butler comes into its fourth-straight home match undefeated, beating Southern Indiana (2-1), tying Western Illinois (1-1) and defeating Oakland (2-1).
• The Bulldogs are led by 14th-year head coach Paul Snape, who has compiled a 106-92-41 career record into his ninth season in Indianapolis.
• Junior forward Josemir Gomez has scored goal in all three of Butler's matches to lead the Bulldogs in scoring. Sophomore forward Ryan Hannosh has contributed a team-best three assists.
SERIES HISTORY
• Indiana and Butler have met in 24 of the last 25 seasons and 26 of 28 going back to their first-ever matchup in 1991. The last year they didn't play was the abbreviated 2020-21 season, in which IU played a conference-only schedule.
• IU last traveled to Indianapolis in 2022 and recovered from a 1-0 deficit to win 2-1. Jansen Miller's first collegiate goal tied the match in the 53rd minute before Ryan Wittenbrink fired home the winner six minutes later.
