They opened up the scoring as senior Jeritt Thayer (Corona del Mar, Cal.) deflected the ball off a corner kick from freshman Anthony Tumbiolo (San Diego, Cal.) in the thirteenth minute. NYU, who edged Kean 16-10 in shots, added one more in the first half as Keller picked up his first goal of the match at 30:52.

Junior keeper Chris Wright (Colchester, Conn.) had just two saves for the Violets in the win while senior Kyle Crego (Ocean City, N.J.) had four saves for the Cougars in the loss.
