The University Cougars lost against the Freedom Patriots back in November of 2022, and unfortunately they wound up with the same result on Friday. University received a tough blow as they fell 35-17 to Freedom.

Another reason for the win was Freedom's imposing defense, which managed to get into the backfield for seven sacks. The heavy lifting was done by Matthew Murawsky and Vlad Zlati who racked up four sacks between them.
