CHICAGO – Indiana State fell behind Loyola early and then recorded an equalizer midway through the opening half but it was the league-leading Ramblers who countered with another goal of their own to earn a 2-1 victory on a wet and cool evening on the Northside of Chicago.
Indiana State fell to 3-10-2, 1-4-1 MVC while Loyola improved to 11-4-1, 6-0-0 MVC. The Sycamores will enter the final game of the regular season holding the sixth and final spot in the Missouri Valley Conference Tournament. ISU hosts Missouri State on Halloween while the two teams chasing the Sycamores – UNI and Valparaiso – will play each other on the same evening.
