LOUDONVILLE, NY - The Buffalo men's soccer team remained undefeated on the season by blanking Siena, 4-0, on Sunday afternoon in Loudonville, NY. Daniel Bell (Brampton, Ontario/Notre Dame) need to make only one save to earn his third shutout of the season.

Jeff Martinko (Shelby Township, MI/DeLaSalle Collegiate) scored the Bulls' first goal at the 21:04 mark when he took a pass from Greg Galemore (Long Valley, NJ/West Morris Central) and shot it past Siena goalkeeper Patrick Henry. Shyle Braithwaite (Brampton, Ontario/Philip Pocock Catholic) notched his second goal of the season 11 minutes later off a pass from fellow freshman Lee Catchpole (Norwich, England/Bungay) to put the Bulls ahead, 2-0.

Galemore recorded his second assist of the game when he set up Erik Jaanimagi (Henrietta, NY/Rush Henrietta) for the Bulls' third goal at the 55:12 mark. Braden Byler (Erie, PA/Cathedral Prep) capped UB's scoring with his team-best third goal of the season in the 65th minute. Brian Knapp (Liverpool, NY/Liverpool) was credited with the assist.

With the win, the Bulls improved to 3-0-1 and are off to their best start since the 1999 season.
