How it Happened
Rhode Island won its seventh game in a row Saturday night, using two late goals to knock off Davidson 2-0 and claim - at the very least - a share of the Atlantic 10 regular season title.

Zach Drayer's first career goal proved to be the difference maker as he beat Davidson's Sawyer Gaffney on an 81st-minute setup from Sondre Karterud.

Simon Trcka later chipped a pass from Noam Kolakofsky over Gaffney - with just 16 seconds remaining - to secure the 2-0 victory.

The Rams finish A-10 play with a 7-1 conference record and currently sit alone at the top of the league standings. Only Saint Louis can match Rhody's conference record, as they are 6-1 in the A-10 with one game left to play - next Saturday, at home, versus Fordham. Should SLU win that game, the Rams and Billikens would share the regular season title with matching 7-1 conference records. If the Billikens lose to Fordham, Rhody will win the crown outright.
