Parkside then made the trip down to St. Louis to square off against Maryville, dropping the contest 4-1. The lone goal belonged to Edgar Heredia Victoria off of a set piece in the 76th minute. 

Despite the draw and loss, the Rangers still enter GLIAC play this week with a respectable 2-1-1 record. A showdown with Purdue Northwest in Hammond, Ind. awaits for the Rangers. Parkside's GLIAC opener is set to kickoff at 2 p.m. CDT.
