Loyola Welcomes UIC For Non-Conference Finale

The Ramblers host the Flames, 9-3-0, (3-1-0 Horizon League) on Tuesday night.

CHICAGO (October 14, 2019) – Currently on a three-match win streak, the Loyola University Chicago men's soccer team will host UIC for its non-conference finale on Tuesday, October 15 at 7 p.m.

Last Time Out: Loyola stormed past Valparaiso at Loyola Soccer Park on Saturday night, claiming yet another 2-0 victory. Ethan Stoneman found the back of the net for Loyola in the first half and Aidan Megally notched the second to mark his seventh goal this season. Loyola recorded a season-high 19 shots and eight Ramblers registered at least one shot-on-goal.

vs. UIC: With its most recent 3-2 win over Wright State on Saturday, UIC holds onto a 19-match home win streak, the longest in the nation. The Flames have tied the all-time program record as they also won 19 in a row from October 22, 1997 to October 6, 2000. Last season, UIC finished 12-6-2 overall (5-2-1 Horizon League) after winning the Horizon League Championship and advancing to the first round of the NCAA Tournament. Under the direction of head coach Sean Phillips, the Flames have advanced to the NCAA Tournament the last three seasons in a row. The Flames (9-3-0, 3-1-0 Horizon League) have already seen seven members score a goal this season, including Bar Hazut (nine), Jesus Perez (four) and Roberto Alonzo (four). Hazut leads the Horizon League in goals and ranks 14th nationally and Perez leads the Horizon League with seven assists and ranks fifth nationally.
 
Series Stuff: Loyola and UIC will meet for the 31st time on Tuesday in Rogers Park. The Flames lead the all-time series, 16-13-2, but Loyola has won four of the last seven meetings. The Ramblers last defeated the Flames, 2-0 in 2016. 

Up Next: The Ramblers have some time off before getting on the road to play Bradley on Wednesday, October 23 at 7 p.m.
