QUOTING HEAD COACH PAUL ZAZENSKI
"It was a great win tonight against an in-state rival. Credit to William & Mary who had some quality chances, but we found a way to keep a zero. I'm proud of the way our guys continue to play with confidence and effort. We now have a short turn around before we play at Hofstra which is always a tough place to play."

UP NEXT
The Dukes travel to Hempstead, N.Y. for their last road match of the regular season against Hofstra on Saturday, Oct. 13. The match is slated for a 7 p.m. start and will be available to watch on Pride Productions.
