UH soccer clinches AAC Tournament berth with win over Cincinnati

Following a late score, the Houston soccer team tied its single-season win record and clinched an American Athletic Conference Tournament berth on Sunday afternoon, defeating Cincinnati 2-1 in the final home game of the season.

I think we wore them down, I think we outworked them.
