EVANSVILLE - Opening its preseason slate with a test against a top 10 opponent, the University of Evansville men's soccer team held eighth-ranked Kentucky scoreless through the opening half before a late offensive flury from the Wildcats earned UK a 3-0 win on Sunday afternoon at Arad McCutchan Stadium in Evansville.
A packed stadium took in the first contest of the Aces 2022 campaign and saw a competitive effort from the home squad. A strong defensive performance in the opening 45 minutes helped Evansville keep Kentucky off the board and nearly propelled UE to an early lead.
