Score three unanswered goals in 3-1 victory

PITTSBURGH - Logan Muck (33'), Ryan Goodhew (49') and Zach Mowka (71') found the back of the net as Duquesne (5-2, 1-0) erased an early 1-0 deficit to post a 3-1 Atlantic 10-openingĀ  win over George Washington (2-4-1, 0-1) Saturday night on Rooney Field.

The win was DU's fourth without a loss at home this season.

Ryan Landry had a pair of assists for the Dukes, who have now scored 17 goals in their past six games.

Muck, DU's first sub of the first half, gathered a Landry shot off the crossbar and poked it by GW's Justin Grady to tie it in the 33rd minute and Goodhew buried a shot in the upper 90 to give the Dukes the lead for good.

The win was DU's eighth in a row at home over the Colonials, who have not won on Rooney Field since 1998.

Domenic Nascimben had a pair of saves in net for Duquesne, who finished with a 7-3 advantage in shots on goal.
