How To Watch Indiana Soccer vs. Lipscomb in NCAA Tournament Thursday

Thursday marks the start of the men's soccer NCAA Tournament. Sixteen games will be played around the country in the Round of 48. The winners of each match will go on to face the top-16 national seeds. Here's how to watch Indiana's matchup with Lipscomb.

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. — Indiana soccer’s quest for nine begins Thursday, as the Hoosiers host Lipscomb in their opening-round NCAA Tournament match. 

Indiana didn’t receive one of the 16 national seeds for the first time in 10 years. The Bisons were nationally seeded in last year’s Tournament, but were upset after their first-round bye.

Indiana won the Big Ten Double — both the regular-season and the conference tournament – and Lipscomb achieved the same in the Atlantic Sun Conference. The Hoosiers are 10-1-2 at home this season, whereas Lipscomb is 2-2-3 on the road. 

These two programs previously met in April 2022, an exhibition win for the Hoosiers. But with the 18-month gap, Indiana head coach Todd Yeagley said Wednesday afternoon that the staff didn’t opt to use that film due to roster changes since.
