BOCA RATON, Fla. ? Dwight Barnett tallied three points to lead second-ranked NCAA Division II Lynn to a 2-0 win over No. 5 Embry-Riddle in men's soccer action on Wednesday. Barnett assisted on the Fighting Knights' first goal and scored the second as Lynn improved to 13-1 on the year, while the Eagles fell to 9-4.

Embry-Riddle enjoyed much of the possession in the first half and put up five shots on frame to Lynn's one. Despite the offensive advantage, the Eagles found themselves down a goal at the half.

Lynn scored against the run of play in the 40th minute. Dwight Barrett  received the ball on the left side after an Eagle defensive misplay and swung a cross to the other side of the field where Carl Wallace ran onto the ball and rocketed a shot past Viktor Bergstrand to give the Fighting Knights a one-goal lead.

The Fighting Knights tacked on their second goal of the day with four minutes remaining on a counterattack. Leon Jackson's clearance fell to Barnett running down the middle, and Barnett tapped home his 10th goal of the year to seal the win.

The Eagles return to conference action at 3 p.m. on Saturday when they travel to Savannah, Ga. when they take on Savannah College of Art and Design.
