ORLANDO \u2014 The University of Houston Soccer team snapped UCF’s five-game winning streak and their undefeated home slate with a 1-0 win on Sunday afternoon at the UCF Soccer and Track Complex.<\/p>\n
The win is only the third for Houston (10-3-4, 6-2-1 Big 12) over UCF (10-4-1, 5-3-1 Big 12) and just the second win in Orlando for the Cougars.<\/p>\n
Houston’s win marked the 10th of the season which is the first time since 2021 the Cougars have posted double digit victories in a season. The sixth conference win is a first since 2001 when the Cougars went 6-4 in Conference USA play.<\/p>\n
The Cougars got on the board in the 12th minute when sophomore Bailey Cate<\/a> cleaned up a mishandled UCF clearance. It was the seventh goal of the season for Cate to lead the Cougars. UP NEXT \u2212 UHCougars.com \u2013<\/p>\n

\nThe Cougars close the regular season home slate when they host #18 Kansas at 7 p.m. Friday for their Black Out match at the Carl Lewis International Complex. Tickets for the match are available here<\/a>.
