Aces host Drake in Saturday MVC clash

EVANSVILLE, Ind. - After a midweek win over Lipscomb on Tuesday, the University of Evansville men's soccer team looks to build off that momentum when it hosts Drake in Missouri Valley Conference action at 5 p.m. on Saturday evening at Arad McCutchan Stadium.

On Tuesday evening, the Purple Aces picked up their second win of the season with a 1-0 triumph over Lipscomb in a non-conference match at home. Evansville and Lipscomb spent the first 45 minutes of the match locked in an evenly-played scoreless draw with UE edging the Bisons in shots, 6-5. The Aces found their breakthrough and what would prove to be the game-winner in the 64th minute as freshman Davis Peck passed a ball through the Lipscomb backline that found junior Ben Weber who was able to score past the keeper to help provide the Aces with the 1-0 win.
