ST. CHARLES, Mo. – The 2020-21 Great Lakes Valley Conference (GLVC) Men’s Soccer Championship will be decided between the top two seeds on Sunday, when No. 1 University of Indianapolis and No. 2 Maryville University kick off at 12 p.m. CT from Hunter Stadium on the campus of Lindenwood University.
The Greyhounds and Saints played to a 1-1 draw on April 9, with the last win coming for the Super Region 3 Championship on December 8, 2019, when UIndy snuck by Maryville, 1-nil, in Louisville, Ky. UIndy looks for its third GLVC title, and first since 2017, while Maryville will attempt to add its second trophy in three seasons when the two square off on Sunday.
