Hilton Cadets trounce Gates Chili in boys soccer
Using a ball-control, almost surgical offensive attack, Hilton netted seven first half goals and 11 overall in defeating an overmatched Gates Chili Spartans boys soccer team 11-0.
Michael Provost used his left foot to convert a pass from Nickolas Simone just 8:03 into the contest to open the offensive onslaught.
Brett Healey headed in a cross off the foot of Evan Pirnie at 17:11 before Jeffrey Hibbard converted twice over a 2:28 span. The first came after a long pass from 40 yards out from Provost and the second converting a give-and-go in the box with Matthew DeFeo.
DeFeo made it 5-0 in the 35th minute racing down the left wing and cutting to the middle before putting the ball inside the left post.
Simone gathered up a loose ball around midfield and dribbled in before finding the net in the 37th minute. Jesse DePrez finished off the first half scoring by heading in a cross from the right wing by Jacob Vinch at 38:00.
Provost opened the second half with a goal off a failed clearing attempt in the 43rd minute for his second goal and third point of the contest. Meikal Lambov made it 9-0 with an unassisted tally at 66:02.
Simon Garno then finished the scoring with two goals over a three minute span. The first was converted after a pass from Simone and the second by Hibbard.
Provost and Hibbard each finished with a pair of goals and one assist. Garno had two goals, Simone had a pair of assists and DeFeo added one goal and one assist. In total ten different players had at least one goal or one assist while senior goalkeeper Brian Wilkin registered the shutout in net for the Cadets.
