Sycamores Overcame Rain To Down Panthers In Record Setting Victory

CHARLESTON, Ill. -- An extremely heavy downpour rendered Lakeside Field on the campus of Eastern Illinois unplayable less than 15 minutes before Friday afternoon's scheduled contest between the Sycamores and Panthers. The two teams were fortunate that an auxiliary field across the athletics complex and about 50 feet higher in elevation was damp but useable and the slightly delayed contest was back on which eventually saw the Sycamores capture a 3-1 victory over Eastern Illinois.

The Sycamores improved to 4-2-2 on the season while Eastern Illinois fell to 1-3-2. It was a historic victory as indiana State has now gone undefeated over their last four contests -- a first for the program which began play in 2000.
