Cougars fall to Knights in first AAC Tournament

The Cougars’ season came to an end in a 5-0 rout in the American Athletic Conference quarterfinals, their first ever AAC Tournament appearance, against the Knights on Sunday afternoon in Orlando, Florida.

UCF started off with a statement, scoring its first goal before the second minute of the game and never looked back.

The Cougars were able to keep the score within one goal until the 21st minute of the game when the Knights struck again.

The Knights came out of halftime looking to put the game completely out of reach, scoring two more goals in the span of the first 12 minutes of the second half.
