From an early age, athletes learn to overcome adversity. The skills they learn on the pitch, field, court, etc., help prepare them for the real world. Overcoming adversity may very well be the theme for the year 2020. And for former U.S. women’s national team player Lindsay Tarpley, she...

Eight overtimes. Can you even imagine? After playing a regulation soccer game — 90 minutes — in Ft. Lauderdale heat and humidity, can you imagine playing in one overtime, let alone eight? Well, that’s what used to happen in college soccer. And in 1982, the Indiana Hoosiers prevailed after...

I grew up a sports fan. I’m from Chicagoland. I watch TV. Therefore, you become a sports fan. Well that, and I was surrounded by sports fans. I’m a White Sox fan, Bears fan and an Indiana University fan above all else. I grew up thinking I was an...

Well, the wait is over. Will all of the Chicago Fire’s changes pay off and get the club some results? One match in, the jury says dropping a 2-1 decision Sunday to defending MLS Cup champion Seattle wasn’t horrible. Chicago showed signs of life, but there is still plenty...

The Indiana Hoosiers men’s soccer team is no stranger to the NCAA Tournament. With 44 appearances, the Hoosiers (15-2-4) lead the NCAA. The third round is also old news. But for a young Hoosiers squad, they continue to defy the odds. They’ve won two out of the three trophies...

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. — On a brisk day in Bloomington, the Indiana Hoosiers took just 21 minutes to get onto the board. But before that, the Hoosiers held their own, made perfect passes, defended, man marked and, more importantly, frustrated the University of Kentucky. After 90 minutes, IU took away...

The men’s soccer NCAA Tournament is by far my favorite time of the year. I’m sure I’m not alone. It’s a time when teams live out their dreams one goal at a time. It’s a time full of upsets, happy endings and stories. Every team has a history and...

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. — In the postseason, all bets are off. A team that dominated another one just a couple weeks before turns into a team struggling for control. It happens. It’s what makes the game of college soccer so fun. But it’s frustrating for the players, the coaches and...

CHICAGO — When Major League Soccer began in 1996, there were no Homegrown Players or academies surrounding MLS teams. There were 10 teams.
