SCOUTING THE MASTODONS
IPFW comes into the opener after a 1-1 tie with Michigan State in the squad's only exhibition. In that game, freshman Jackson Tooke gave IPFW a 1-0 lead in the 69th minute of the game. The Spartans answered back quickly with a goal of their own in the 79th minute, as neither team would score in the final 11 minutes of the contest.
Tooke had both of IPFW's shots in the game, as sophomore Brandon Cloutier was in goal for the entire game for the Mastodons, allowing just the single goal.
Last season IPFW went 8-10-2 on the year, advancing to the Summit League Tournament for the first time in program history. Leading the returners this season are a pair of four-year starters for the Mastodons in defender Brent Helton and midfielder Mitch Falkenstern.
SCOUTING THE TITANS
Detroit comes into the Sunday's contest after falling to Summit League foe IUPUI on Friday afternoon by a 2-0 score in Indianapolis.
In the game, Detroit took 14 shots, six of them on goal, and none finding the back of the net, while giving up goals in the 57th and 87th minute of the game.
ALL-TIME SERIES
The Mastodons and Titans have met on the soccer pitch 11 times, with Detroit leading the all-time series 7-2-2. Over half of the 11 all-time meetings (6-of-11) have gone to overtime, including last season's 2-1 IPFW victory in Fort Wayne. In those half-dozen overtime games, the teams are at an even 2-2-2 record.
The teams have met every season since IPFW became an NCAA Division I member in 2001, and the Titans won the first two meetings overall. IPFW got its first win in the series in 2003, a 3-2 overtime victory in Fort Wayne. All-time in Detroit, IPFW is 0-4-1.
