10/20/2025 8:00:00 AM | Men's Soccer
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. — Indiana men's soccer (10-3-1, 3-3-0 B1G) kicks off its final stretch of Big Ten Conference play Tuesday (Oct. 20) night, welcoming Wisconsin (5-6-0, 2-4-0 B1G) to Jerry Yeagley Field at Bill Armstrong Stadium.
Kickoff is scheduled for 7 p.m. ET, and tickets are on sale here. Fans unable to attend can watch the match via the Big Ten Network.
Tuesday is Greek Night at Armstrong Stadium – the IU fraternity or sorority house that brings the most members to the match will win a prize from Indiana men's soccer.
KICKING OFF
• The Hoosiers come in hot after a great two weeks, winning three consecutive matches against Ohio State (4-2), at No. 25 Kentucky (2-1) and against Hanover College (8-0). IU clinched an unbeaten non-conference regular season record, finishing that phase 7-0-1.
• Senior forward Palmer Ault bolstered his MAC Hermann Trophy candidacy in those two weeks, recording six goals, two assists and 14 points over the three matches. Ault's is the NCAA co-leader in points (33) and ranks tied-for-second in goals (14), and he's the Big Ten leader, running away, in both categories as well.
• On Friday, the NCAA Committee announced its top 16 ranking a month before NCAA Tournament Selection Monday. The list featured Indiana as the No. 5-ranked program.
• IU has enjoyed a 7-1-1 record on its home patch this season as Hoosier Army looks to shatter its own lofty standards. With season attendance already at 30,147 through nine home matches, Indiana is 3,826 fans away from breaking its single-season attendance record.
ABOUT THE BADGERS
• Wisconsin is coming off a 2-0 victory against Michigan State and has a 2-4-0 in conference play.
• Head coach Neil Jones leads the Badgers in his fourth season, sporting a 24-22-13 record during his time in Madison, and a 105-76-39 career record over 13 seasons as a head coach.
• Sophomore midfielder Matthew Zachemski leads the Badgers in goals (4) and points (8).
SERIES HISTORY
• Indiana has historically dominated the all-time series with Wisconsin, winning 43 of 58 meetings. IU has not suffered a true "loss" to the Badgers since 2013, but Wisconsin did knock the Hoosiers out of the Big Ten Tournament in 2016 and 2017.
• Collins Oduro had two goals and one assist when Indiana visited No. 8-ranked Wisconsin last season, a 3-2 victory.
• Indiana owns a 27-1-3 record when hosting Wisconsin and has not lost to the Badgers at home since 1993.
