After falling to Kentucky by the score of 4-7 in the second game of the 2018 Cardinal Classic, the Ohio Bobcats Men's Lacrosse team was able to beat Xavier 9-1 and advance to the Championship Game for a rematch with Kentucky for the cup.
After opening up the game with an impressive 6-0 lead, the Bobcats were simply dominating the Wildcats. Kentucky's morale was extremely low, with players not getting very excited to see the scoreboard finally read 6-1.
However, the morale grew for the Wildcats as they were able to score 3 more goals in the latter half of the first half, while only giving up one additional goal, bringing the score to 7-4 at the half, in favor of the Bobcats.
...and while the Wildcats defense would only allow one goal in the second half as well, it came at a time to where Kentucky would be put in a hole that they simply would not be able to dig themselves out of.
The Ohio Bobcats are your 2018 Cardinal Classic Champions!
