Midway through the second half, UMW put the game out of reach with its third goal of the afternoon.

“I am pleased with the effort from the guys today,” said Head Coach Keith Byrnes. “They worked extremely hard and kept playing even when we were down.”

The Bobcats return to action Thursday, September 22 when they host Bethany at 4:00 pm.
