BOSTON – Seeking its first Boston Derby victory during its fifth attempt since 2008, the Northeastern men's soccer team put forth a convincing effort against Boston University on Tuesday night at Nickerson Field, blanking the Terriers, 2-0, to win the series' 31st all-time meeting.
 
Dan Munch scored the opening goal during the 36th minute for Northeastern (5-6-1), which collected its first road win at BU since the 2003 America East quarterfinals (fourth attempt). Munch intercepted the Terriers' ball over the midfield line and triggered a give-and-go attack with Alec Supinski, delivering his final touch from eight yards away in front of the left post.
 
Exiting halftime with the 1-0 lead, the Huskies conceded two quick corners to Boston University (3-8-3), but managed to stage a well-executed counter-attack during the latter. Tyler Welch prompted the end-to-end run during the 47th minute, playing a lengthy through ball ahead to Dom Galletti, who completed the one-on-one finish to double Northeastern's lead.
 
The Huskies' second goal marked the first of Galletti's collegiate career while jointly providing Welch with his first collegiate assist and point.
 
Chandler Cree recorded two saves, weathering the Terriers' light attack. Total attempts between the two sides were level at 8-8.
