What constitutes a successful season for Indiana men’s soccer? It’s a question I’ve been asked numerous times over the three years I’ve covered this storied program — whether on podcasts, by fans, or within my own conscience — and I always return to the same answer: I’m still not sure,…
Tournament season starts a match early for Indiana men’s soccer. A win against Maryland on Sunday earns the Hoosiers a fourth consecutive Big Ten regular season title. A loss ends the streak, and condemns them to either second or third in the Big Ten Tournament. This Friday edition of the…
Todd Yeagley couldn’t have scripted it any better — the weather, the performance, the final result. If there was ever a time and place for Indiana to honor its departing seniors on Senior Night, it was Wednesday night in Bloomington against a VCU team who entered as one of IU’s…

In the spring 2021 season, IU men’s soccer showcased one of the best defenses in recent collegiate memory. Across 16 games — the most played of any team in the nation — the Hoosiers allowed just six goals, tallied 10 shutouts and never conceded more than one goal in a…
Indiana head men’s soccer coach Todd Yeagley had one simple request for his team prior to the Hoosiers’ road match against Northwestern on Tuesday night: “Just go out and play.” The message might seem nominal or cliché, right? But what else is the head coach supposed to say when his…
Indiana head coach Todd Yeagley can’t quite put his finger on it yet. Is it something schematically that’s gone awry? Does the rotation and personnel need a shakeup? Why does this season’s squad seemingly lack the fire and energy of past Hoosiers teams? These are some of the questions that…
