WALTHAM, Mass. – Bentley University women's soccer improved to 3-0 in Northeast-10 Conference play with a 2-0 victory over visiting Adelphi on Tuesday afternoon.

The Falcons have yet to concede a goal in 270 total minutes in their wins over New Haven (1-0), Southern Connecticut (3-0) and Adelphi (2-0) to begin NE10 play.

After a scoreless opening 45 minutes and a scoreless opening 17-plus minutes of the 2^nd half, Bentley scored twice in a seven-minute span.

Senior Dana Goulet (Wilmington, Mass./Wilmington) struck first in the 63^rd minute to give Bentley a 1-0 lead. That was followed by junior Liliana Silva (North Grafton, Mass./Grafton) finishing off a nice team goal in the 70^th minute for a 2-0 lead.

The first goal came after some quick passing in Bentley's attacking end led to junior Brooke Jones (Duxbury, Mass./Duxbury) playing a pass off to Goulet. Goulet took a few dribbles in between Adelphi defenders to the edge of the 18-yard box, where she got off a low shot that beat the Panthers keeper to the far post.

Bentley's second goal came off a throw-in in midfield. The Falcons kept possession and the ball found its way to junior McKenzie Sullivan (Suffield, Conn./Suffield). Sullivan threaded a through ball down the right-hand side to senior Amanda Andriano (Fort Salonga, N.Y./St. Anthony's) into the 18 yard box. Andriano then played a centering pass to Silva in the six-yard box, who finished the move off with a shot into the back of the net to give Bentley a 2-0 lead.

Bentley then saw out the remaining 20-plus minutes to improve to 3-0 in the NE10 with nine points, and with its third straight shutout.

Falcons graduate student goalkeeper Kat Hassapis (North Reading, Mass./North Reading) made five saves to earn the win, and to record her 14^th career shutout.

Bentley will look to keep its winning streak going on Saturday when they visit Saint Rose on Saturday at 2:00 pm.
