Sunday the UNI women’s soccer team took it down to the wire but prevailed in penalty kicks over UIC 1-1 in the Missouri Valley Conference Tournament. Four straight scored penalty kicks lifted UNI soccer to victory over the UIC Flames in a nail biter. Despite trailing in shots, corner kicks, and possession time, the Panthers found the back of the net when it mattered most. With Sunday’s win, UNI has won two straight MVC Tournament games for the first time since 2017. The Panthers will play 4-seed Missouri state on Thursday.
UNI quarterback Theo Day has been selected as College Football Performance’s Co-FCS National Performer of the Week.
