DUBUQUE, Iowa - The University of Dubuque improved to 3-0-1 this season with another victory on the friendly confines of Oyen Field on Wednesday evening.

Gavin Wooldridge scored the first goal at 58:03 off a Max Forsberg assist. A short time later at 71:00, UD would increase their lead to 2-0 after Noah Hook found Draek Littler for the game winning goal. Grinnell responded with a header off a corner kick at 73:29 to slice the lead to just a goal before Josh Krenger punched in the goal at 81:30 to extend the game 3-1 before time ran out.

The Spartans finished with 15 shots, with Littler who came off the bench to lead the team with three. An active night which saw 21 Spartans play in front of their home crowd, and 11 finished with a shot.

The busy start to the season continues on Sunday, Sept. 11 when UD will host Milwaukee School of Engineering at 2 p.m. on Oyen Field in Dubuque.
