Dear DePaul Men's Soccer Alumni,
In Week 2, we were able to pick up our first win of the season over LaSalle 2-1 in the first game of our Chicago Classic Tournament. We had goals by Senior Forward Stijn van der Slot and by Freshmen Forward Timmy Iscra. Freshmen Midfielder Istvan Wilhelms was credited with one assist on the game winning goal. Senior Goalkeeper Quentin Low played all 90 minutes to record his first win of the season.
In the Tournament's second game against Valparaiso we lost 2-1 despite maintaining 71% possession and other statistical advantages. Senior Philipp Konigstein (2 goals, 2 assists) continues his outstanding play. His free kick from 35 yards was redirected by the Valparaiso goalkeeper and Freshmen Istvan Wilhelms (2 goals & 2 assists) was able to score.
