TOWSON, MD -- 1998 America East Rookie of the Year Alfonso DeMares had a goal and three assists as Towson University won its eighth straight America East regular season game, defeating Delaware, 5-3, in men's soccer action Saturday.

DeMares four-point overshadowed a pair of two-goal efforts by Delaware's Dan Keane and Towson's Adam Lowe.

Lowe opened the scoring at 6:09 with his first of two goals. Todd Everett countered for Delaware, however, just 4:24 later to tie the game with his first goal of the season.

Lowe scored his second of the afternoon at 15:34 on a give-and-go with DeMares to give the Tigers a 2-1 lead. DeMares, then scored his goal at 40:29 to give Towson a 3-1 lead at halftime.

However, Delaware came storming back thanks to Keane. The Newark, DE native's two goals came 91 seconds apart at 49:32 and 51:03 for his second and third goals of the season and tied the game, 3-3.

The tie would not last long, though, as Towson's Randy Tolson scored at 57:25 to give the Tigers the lead once again, 4-3.

Todd Lauber iced the win at 87:21 when he scored off of DeMares' third assist of the day.

It was the conference opener for both Towson (5-1-3, 1-0 America East) and Delaware (2-6-1, 0-1)

Delaware will travel to Navy Tuesday night for a 7 p.m. contest.
