BIDDEFORD, Maine -- Colin Madigan notched the only goal exactly 10 minutes into the match as the University of New England defeated Curry College, 1-0, in Commonwealth Coast Conference (CCC) men's soccer action Wednesday afternoon (Oct. 18) at Barbara J. Hazard Field.

From deep on the right sideline, Cody Kennedy hurled a throw-in right into the heart of the box, where Lee Esposito headed it out of a crowd towards the near post, and Madigan flicked it out of the air before the goalie could grab it. [Watch]

The win ends a six-game skid for UNE, which now stands at 3-13 overall and 2-5 in conference matches. The Colonels drop to 8-9-1 on the year (2-5 CCC).

Nathan Delesdernier turned in four saves to earn the shutout for the Nor'easters.

For Curry, which finished with advantages in shots (14-9) and corner kicks (11-1), Adam Dibrina made two stops.

UNE stays at home to face league-leading Endicott College (5-0-2 CCC) on Saturday beginning at 2:30 p.m.
