Cincinnati, Ohio — The Cougars fell 17-6 to the Silver Knights in last night’s contest, a defensive battle that saw key plays from both teams. The scoring opened in the second quarter when Silver Knights senior kicker Sam Reder knocked through a field goal to give his team a 3-0 lead. The Cougars responded quickly with a deep touchdown pass from quarterback Bryhaun Ramsay to senior wide receiver Jayden Murray. However, their two-point conversion attempt failed, sending the Cougars into halftime with a narrow 6-3 lead. After the break, the Silver Knights leaned on their ground game. Sophomore running back Dillon Minton powered his way into the end zone, giving the Knights a 10-6 advantage.
