2011 Men’s Soccer Notes Continued • Going Full Tilt Through three contests this season, six Tigers have played the full-ninety minutes of action in each match: Andreas Guentner, Thomas Shannon, Cody McCoy, Jordan Johnson, J.J. Greer and Conor Hurley. • Three’s Company Currently, there are two teams, Memphis and UCF, with perfect, 3-0, records atop the Conference USA standings. Kentucky also holds three wins at 3-0-1 and UAB stands with an unblemished record at 2-0-1. Memphis has beaten Missouri State (9-4-11), Belmont (9-1-11) and Lipscomb (8-28-11). • Take Two! Memphis has won its last 20 games when scoring at least two goals, including this year’s wins at Belmont and versus Lipscomb. The streak stretches back to the 2007 season, when the Tigers played to a 3-3 tie against then-No. 14 Tulsa. Excluding ties, the Tigers are unbeaten in a total of 27-straight games when tallying two goals. Memphis’ last loss when scoring at least two goals occurred in 2006 at the hands of Creighton (Nov. 7) by a score of 3-2. • Tigers Face “Great” Challege When Memphis heads to Madison, Wisc., to face UIC and Wisconsin this weekend, it will face the ninth and 10th-ranked teams in the Great Lakes Region. UIC currently sits ninth in the latest NSCAA regional poll and Wisconsin is tied for tenth with Buffalo. • The Tigers vs. The Flames Memphis and UIC have played to a series record of 1-1-1, with the last meeting (10-17-04) ending in a 1-1 draw. When Memphis and UIC face off on Friday, September 9, 2011, they will have played two games exactly 10-years apart. The two teams also played on September 9, 2001, a game which the Flames won 4-0. • Scouting UIC UIC enters the season with a 2-0-1 record. The Flames have beaten Marquette (2-1) and DePaul (2-0) and played to a 1-1 draw against fellow Conference USA foe, UAB. UIC is led by senior forward Eric Frazier, who has scored three goals on the season. • The Tigers vs. The Badgers This will be the first time that Memphis and Wisconsin have met on the pitch. In fact, it is only the second time in Tiger history that they have played a Big Ten opponent. Memphis lost to No. 30 Ohio State, 1-0, in the 2004 NCAA Tournament. • Scouting Wisconsin The Badgers have started the 2011 season with a pair of 1-0 wins over Virginia Tech and Western Illinois, followed by a 4-2 defeat to No. 12 Virginia. Wisconsin is paced by Josh Thiermann with a pair of goals on the season. • Ranked Opponents The Tigers have games scheduled for this season against three teams currently ranked in the top 25 of the NSCAA poll: No. 17 UCF (Oct. 29), No. 19 SMU (Nov. 4), and No. 23 Bradley ( Sept. 16).
