The Illinois Wesleyan University women's soccer team is preparing for a midweek match against Knox College. The game is scheduled for Wednesday, September 11, at 5 p.m. and will take place at Jorge Prats Field in Galesburg, Illinois.

Illinois Wesleyan's recent participation in the Midwest Tournament in River Forest, Illinois, resulted in two 2-0 losses to Wartburg College and the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse on September 7 and 8. Despite the defeats, freshman Grace Kiewiet made a notable impact by recording 15 saves against Wisconsin-La Crosse. This effort helped limit the Eagles to a two-goal lead, their smallest margin of victory this season. Kiewiet's performance ranks as the third-most saves in a single game by an IWU player and stands at 25th nationally this season.

Currently holding a record of 0-4, Illinois Wesleyan faces Knox College, which has a record of 0-3. Historically, IWU leads the series with four wins out of five matches against Knox. In their last encounter on September 6, 2023, the Titans secured a decisive 4-0 victory over Knox with contributions from then-freshman Ava Mapes and now-sophomore Sophie Lampert.

The upcoming match will be available through live stats and can also be viewed via live stream.
