The University of Cincinnati surrendered an early first half goal to Marshall University on Friday afternoon at Gettler Stadium, but the Bearcats clawed back to net a pair of goals and defeat the Herd, 2-1, in a friendly.

Seconds before the first half ended, Mackenzie Grause gave the Bearcats a 2-1 lead as she tapped in a botched save by Marshall's goalkeeper. Grause's goal was setup by Laura Rose and Megan Cravenor.
