COACH'S QUOTE
"As a coach, I don't have much to complain about when we score athree and give up no goals on the road," head coach Rob Dow said. "We have been focusing on our mentality after scoring and we improved on that today. We're excited to start a new season on Saturday opening up America East play against Binghamton."
 
HOW IT HAPPENED

• Murray continued his scoring streak in the 26th minute when he gave Vermont the 1-0 lead. Alex Nagy dribbled into the 18-yard box and drew the attention of goalkeeper Greg Monroe (5 saves) before passing to Murray.
• The Catamounts outshot the Saints 10-0 in the opening frame, with Murray registering three shots in the half.
• Nagy doubled the UVM lead in the second half with his second goal in as many games. Murray found the Vermont midfielder who faked out a Siena defender before firing a rocket into the upper left corner.
• Mujtaba Mirhasan added his first collegiate goal in the 82nd minute when a pass from Murray freed him up for a partial breakaway.
