That's a question that seems to keep popping up after IU's heartbreaking (can I even use that word anymore?) 34-31 loss to Virginia Saturday night at Memorial Stadium. When IU trailed 23-3 early in the second half, I thought it was time to see Dusty Kiel.

After jumping out to a 2-0 lead in the first half off of a pair of goals from senior Alec Purdie, the IU men's soccer team fended off a late run by the Bucknell offense to win its third game of the season 3-2 Friday night in South Bend at the Mike Berticelli Memorial Tournament. Purdie scored his two goals over a span of just over three minutes midway through the first half, and they proved to be the lone difference between the two teams after the first half, with each team with eight shot attempts.

But, with just 13 minutes left to play in regulation, freshman Eriq Zavaleta saw the ball roll his way and drilled it into the back of the net for his third goal of the season, and most importantly, breaking the game's tie. The Hoosiers will finish off their action in South Bend Sunday morning against Denver and former head coach Mike Freitag at 11:30 a.m.
