MADISON, N.J. – Senior
Andrew Dunne scored two goals and the Drew University men's soccer team rolled to its second win in a row, blanking William Paterson University 3-0 in a non-conference affair Tuesday evening in Ranger Stadium.
It was the first career multi-goal game for Dunne, who helped the Rangers (2-1-2) to a season-high scoring total.
Drew (2-1-2) yielded only five shots for the game, including just two on frame, and has now posted a shutout in four of their five games thus far.

It remained a 2-0 game until the 86th minute, when Dunne dribbled around three defenders before launching a long shot off the keeper's fingertips and into the back of the net.
The Rangers continue their season on Saturday, when they visit Rutgers-Camden in another non-conference tilt starting at 1 p.m.
