Redbirds Defeat Redhawks 1-0 before Conference Play Begins

NORMAL, Ill. – The Illinois State women's soccer team (3-4-2) defeated the Miami (Ohio) Redhawks (0-7-0) 1-0 Sunday afternoon at Adelaide Street Field.

"It was an interesting game," said head coach Brad Silvey. "I thought we came out a little sluggish in the first half and we did our best to try to light a fire and were able to notch one. At the end of the day, the girls needed a result and they dug in and found a way. For that I am proud of them."

The Redbirds opened the match outshooting the Redhawks 10-5 in the first half.
