Impressive out of the gate with the new program
With their WAC Defensive Player of the Week on goal, they drew 0-0 with Bellermine a few days back. Both teams came in 2-1.
Bellermine has wins versus Evansville and Purdue Fort Wayne, who are both decent programs, and lost 1-0 in OT to Louisville who is a strong program.
From what I've seen of them on the field, Chicago State is a decent team, and not the type that looked good only at first glance because of some early season wins over horrible teams. They're going to get some conference wins this year.
Interesting game on 9-9 is UVU versus Northwestern, so we can get a comparison of Northwestern vs other WAC teams we know more about. Should give insight into CSU level of play.
After the Chicago State loss, Northwestern is 2-0-1. Wins over Loyola 2-2, and UMKC
0-3-1 (tied #15 Virginia Tech, lost to #19 Marquette 2-1, and #21 James Madison 2-0)
