SWING AND A MISS
Indy Eleven currently sit in 6th place in the USL Championship Eastern Conference and will play their third of four straight games against Western Conference opponents when they make their first trip to Irvine, CA. Indy's defense is currently tied for the top spot in the Eastern Conference, but their offense is currently at the bottom, scoring just two goals in four matches. However, it is not for lack of effort. In their two most recent matches, the Boys in Blue have had ten shots on target and have dominated possession in both. Former OCSC midfielder Aodhan Quinn has one of the team's two goals this season.
2023 Regular Season Record: 1-1-2 (6th in USL-C Eastern Conference)
Goals Scored: 2 | Goals Allowed: 4 | Clean Sheets: 2
Players to Watch

TIME TO FIND THE SWEET SPOT!
Orange County SC returns to the friendly confines of Championship Stadium following their 1-0 defeat on the road to El Paso Locomotive FC, just the first time they were held off the scoreboard this season. It was a big week for OCSC's Next Wave, with forwards Bryce Jamison, Nico Ruiz and defender Ashton Miles all making their U.S Open Cup debut and Jamison scoring his first USOC goal. This was capped off with defender Joseph Buckley making his first professional appearance Saturday against El Paso. The Black and Orange should also see some reinforcements to the back, with defender Morten Bjørshol available for selection for the first time this season.
