DURHAM, NH -- Adam Purcell scored twice in the first 25:16 to lead an early offensive surge as New Hampshire defeated Delaware, 3-1, in men's soccer action Saturday afternoon.

Purcell scored unassisted at 10:07 and on a header off a Doug Lawyer pass just over 15 minutes later to give the home team a 2-0 lead.

New Hampshire (6-8-0, 3-4-0) also got a tally from Josh Horald on a breakaway at 38:31 to give the Wildcats a 3-0 halftime lead.

Delaware (3-13-0, 1-6-0) got one back with just under 20 minutes remaining when Jeff Martell scored off a Richie Schrider feed, but it wasn't enough to overcome the early deficit.

Delaware held a 14-8 advantage in shots, but the Wildcats made the most of their chances. Delaware also had a 5-2 advantage in corner kicks.

The Blue Hens will host Boston University next Friday at 3 p.m.
