Chicago, Ill.- The ninth-ranked UIC men's soccer team returns home to host a pair of matches this weekend as part of the Chicago Classic.

The undefeated Flames (4-0-1) put their four-game winning streak on the line when they host Princeton (1-2-0) this Friday at 7 p.m. at Flames Field. That game is the third annual RED OUT match, in which the first 100 UIC students will receive a free commemorative UIC soccer RED OUT t-shirt. Flames fans are also encouraged to wear red in support of the home side.

On Sunday the Flames will host Loyola Marymount (1-1-2) at a new kickoff time of 2 p.m.

The Chicago Classic is hosted in conjunction with Northwestern, who will host Loyola Marymount on Friday and Princeton on Sunday in Evanston.

Known for its stifling defense over the past two seasons, UIC has started the 2008 campaign as an offensive powerhouse. The Flames enter the weekend ranked fourth in the nation in scoring offense, averaging 3.0 goals per game while scoring four goals in three of the last four matches.

Leading the Flames' offensive charge is junior midfielder Baggio Husidic. Husidic entered the year with career totals of three goals, one assist and seven points that were accumulated in 43 matches from 2006-2007. In just five games in 2008, Husidic has four goals, two assists and 10 points while tallying at least one point in each of UIC's games.
