CAMPBELLSVILLE, Ky. – The last time the Tigers matched up against Bethel, the Wildcats pulled a one goal upset as Campbellsville entered the game as the eighth ranked team in the country and Bethel was unranked. On Saturday night, the roles were reversed as Campbellsville played their upset card, and outdueled the eighth ranked Wildcats, 1-0.

Campbellsville exited the halftime break looking to even up Bethel's shot advantage, shooting the first four shots of the half.
 
Finally, in the 68^thminute, Marc Lawrence was able to break through as he collected a cross from Azad Illiozer and fired it home.
 
Following the Tiger goal, Campbellsville was able to use the momentum to contain much more ball control.
 
The Tigers limited Bethel's opportunities by successfully escaping corners, throw-ins, and set pieces without allowing the Wildcats to attempt the shots.
