Quincy can clinch a second straight GLVC Tournament berth with a win or draw Wednesday at Truman State. The Hawks sit fifth in the conference, while Truman is fighting to hold the final tournament spot. Quincy’s defense will be tested by Bulldogs striker Jacob Panagos, who has scored most of Truman’s goals this season.

By the Numbers
  • Quincy: 6-3-7 overall, 5-2-6 in GLVC play; fifth place with 21 points.
  • Truman: 5-5-4 overall, 4-4-4 in GLVC play; eighth place with 16 points.
  • Jacob Panagos has scored 13 of Truman’s 22 goals.
  • Quincy has allowed 14 goals in 16 matches; goalkeeper Jake Offerman has 39 saves and six shutouts.
Yes, But

A top-four seed and home quarterfinal remain possible for Quincy, but would require a win and favorable results elsewhere. Truman has another regular-season match after Wednesday, so the Bulldogs have an additional chance to protect their tournament position.

State of Play
  • A Quincy win or draw guarantees a tournament berth; a win would also give the Hawks 24 points.
  • Truman holds eighth place by two points over both Southwest Baptist and Lewis.
  • Kickoff is set for 7:30 p.m. Wednesday at Stokes Stadium in Kirksville, Missouri.
Bottom Line

Quincy controls its path to the postseason: earn at least a draw, contain Panagos, and the Hawks are in.
