AMHERST, Mass. — Jake Duker scored in the 68th minute to give Amherst College a 1-0 victory over St. Lawrence University in a second-round game of the NCAA Division III men's soccer tournament Sunday.

Duker's goal was set up when Jae Heo headed a ball, knocking it down by Duker, who sent a shot past SLU goalie Emilio Coletta.

The first half of the game featured the defenses of both squads as Amherst (13-3-3) held just a 6-4 shots edge and only a 3-2 edge in shots on goal.

Dan Martin had the best scoring chance for SLU (13-7-1) off a long shot in the 30th minute, but Amherst goalie Lennard Kovacs made a diving save to his left, then saved a second chance on the ensuing corner kick.
