Monday Headlines: Men’s Soccer Edition

Good morning BBN.

While most of last week’s Kentucky-Indiana hype centered around the men’s basketball series being renewed, the real headline was their men’s soccer programs having a huge showdown in Bloomington.

The Wildcats would come away with a dominant 3-0 triumph, marking their first road win over the Hoosiers since 1995. It also served as a small bit of revenge for Kentucky’s 2019 NCAA Tournament loss to Indiana.

Currently ranked No. 2 in America, Kentucky improved to 9-0-5 this season and have yet to taste defeat as one of three NCAA Division I men’s soccer programs that are still unbeaten.

Head coach Johan Cedergren has another special team under his watch that looks primed for another deep postseason run.

Up next, Kentucky will return to The Wendell & Vickie Bell Soccer Complex on Friday for Senior Night and a 7 pm ET clash with Old Dominion.
