VMI had a solid defensive effort Saturday but Gardner-Webb broke through in the second half for a 2-0 win in non-conference play.
After a scoreless first half, The Runnin’ Bulldogs broke into the scoring column at 48:25 on an unassisted goal by Omar Boudaka. VMI junior Nathan Lam had a chance to tie the score 15 seconds later, but his shot sailed wide.
VMI kept it a one-goal game until the closing minutes, when Sebastian Reventlow netted an insurance goal from Owen Zaldivar.
Keydet keeper Broden Schull made five saves.
G-WU outshot VMI 11-2 and had a 9-2 advantage in corner kicks.
The Keydets (0-5) return home Wednesday to face Radford University at 4 p.m.
