AMHERST, MA Ð Junior goalkeeper Bill Orum (Greenwich, CT) posted his second consecutive shutout as Amherst college improved to 2-0 with a 1-0 victory over visiting non-league foe Keene State Tuesday at Hitchcock Field.

Junior forward David Michener (Eden Prairie, MN) scored the lone Amherst goal with a right footed blast off a long crossing pass from senior midfielder Stephen Squillario (Randolph, NJ) at the 18:30 mark. Orum posted four saves on the afternoon as a stingy Lord Jeff defense allowed just 11 shots on goal. Amherst outshot Keene State 15-11 and controlled the ball for most of the afternoon.

Keene State goalie David Nordmark logged three saves in defeat, as the Owls fell to 3-2 despite ripping off three straight wins to start the season.

The Jeffs return to action this Saturday for a 2 p.m. showdown at NESCAC rival Bates College.
