'Birds Fall 4-1 in Final Conference Match at Home

NORMAL, Ill.- Illinois State (3-8-4,1-5-3 in MVC) lost its fourth straight match, to UIC (5-7-4, 4-3-2 in MVC) for its last home conference matchup of the regular season. The 'Birds will finish their conference slate at UNI on Sunday.

Although, freshman Katie O'Malley notched her second goal of the season, it was not enough to overcome the four-goal deficit put up by the Flames offense. O'Malley's goal came in the second half on the assist from Haley Glover, but it was the only time the 'Birds were able to find the back of the net.

Goalkeeper, Audrey Brown, set a career-high in saves, stopping 11 of the Flames shots, who produced 20 total in the game. The Redbirds had 13 shots of their own, with seven on goal. 

The Redbirds will head on the road to take on UNI in Cedar Falls for their last regular-season matchup in Missouri Valley Conference play. Kickoff is set for 12 PM.
