The CCIW.org website has Wheaton 3 and North Park 1.

But if you look at the stats, North Central appears to have only played 8 against Rockford to even up the playing field, unlike North Park who played 11 v 8.

DIIIDad,
Did you say that your daughter is a freshman at Augie?  How does she like the school and what is she studying? Also, how does she like the soccer team and the coach?

Good point.  Go CCIW

Shouldn't the conference total be 35-11-2?
For each conference game there will be a win and a loss.

Illinois Wesleyan 1, UW Whitewater 0

Good Luck tonight to my Millikin friends.

Does anyone know if Wheaton lost any key players from last year?  What was their recruiting class like for this year?

Were you at the game?

The Titans did have more "on target" offense than Wash U.   They also equaled total shots to Wash U.  Although when I add up Wash U's shots, I only get 13 shots for them. That means IWU had more offense and was also on target more often.  They just need to get it passed the goalie. Check out the shots chart from the Wash U. web site.

Another thing to consider is that Wash U resorted to a lot of fouls in order to contain the Titans (and those were only the ones called).

Fouls                    1  2  OT  O2  SO  Total 
Illinois Wesleyan  2  2  0     1    0       5 
Washington U.     3  9  2     1     0      15 

I don't know who I favor this Friday.  Maybe keep it in the CCIW.

Remember who 4 of those loses were to:  Wash U, Chicago, Carthage and Wheaton.  Three of those teams are highly ranked.  The two early loses are hurting them, but the remainder of the season was impressive.
