Indiana Men's Soccer is once again at the pinnacle of their sport, claiming the #1 ranking after a gritty 5-0-1 start to the season against a gauntlet of top opponents. As Big Ten play finally starts, the Hoosiers look to win not just another conference title, but clearly have the squad to add an unprecedented 9th star to their jerseys.
