AMHERST, Mass. – Amherst College (4-1-0) blanked Saint Joseph's College (3-1-2), 3-0, in a non-conference men's soccer contest on Thursday afternoon.

Both teams entered the game ranked in the United Soccer Coaches Region I Poll, as Amherst is sixth and Saint Joseph's is seventh. One of the elite programs regionally and nationally, the Mammoths have participated in the NCAA Tournament in each of the last 14 seasons and advanced to the 'Sweet 16' 11 years in a row.

Senior Jack O'Brien (Milton, Mass.) scored in the 42nd minute and the Mammoths netted a pair in the second stanza as freshman Ben Clark-Eden (Littlehampton, U.K.) and junior Ignacio Cubeddu (Davie, Fla.) hit pay dirt to account for the final score.

Amherst held the lead in shots (27-3), shots on goal (14-0), and corner kicks (4-0) on the afternoon. SJC graduate student David Walbridge (Hampden, Mass.) made 11 saves in the setback.

Senior Austin Ward (North Andover, Mass.) had all three of the Monks' shots in the non-league tilt.

Saint Joseph's will host Emmanuel College in a Great Northeast Athletic Conference (GNAC) matchup on Saturday at 4:00 PM. Today's contest was the Monks' last non-conference match of the season, as St. Joe's plays out the string with 10-consecutive GNAC games.
