DURHAM, NH -- Erin Kelly and Mandy Merritt each scored and Rachel Bersin recorded her second shutout as Delaware defeated New Hampshire, 2-0, Sunday afternoon. With the win, the Blue Hens are now unbeaten in their last four games (3-0-1) and moved to 6-6-1 overall and 4-1-0 in America East action. Delaware is in a tie for second place with Hofstra and Boston University, all at 4-1-0 (12 points). Hartford leads the league at 6-0-0 (18 points) after defeating Northeastern Sunday. Kelly got the Blue Hens on the board at 12:44 when she fired a shot into the top right corner of the net from 30 yards out. It was the first collegiate goal for the senior from Charlotte, NC. Merritt put the game away with her team-leading sixth goal of the season with 11:54 remaining when she scored off of a rebound. Bersin recorded five saves in shuting out the Wildcats (6-7-1, 2-4-1). The freshman from Bridgewater, NJ has not allowed a goal in her last 305:26 of action, dating back to Oct. 3 in a 1-1 tie against Virginia Commonwealth. Delaware outshot New Hampshire, 11-6, for the game. Delaware will host Boston University in a key America East battle Friday at 3:30 p.m. at Delaware Mini-Stadium.
