The Junior Varsity took advantage of a venue change to their favored plastic paradise at Merriman Branch Field Tuesday, and beat John Stark 8-0 with an excellent display of team defense and unselfish offense.
Eli Connolly led off the scoring with a shot just inside the left post, and Zach Taylor made it 2-0 with a blast from outside, assisted by Alex Pratt. Daniel Hernandez deftly slipped a shot into the net with an assist from Xavi Tchana to make the score 3-0. Alex Murphy celebrated his birthday with a nice shot to increase the lead to 4-0, and the Tomas LaPorta vaped a long drive into the net from outside 18 for a 5-0 Marauder halftime advantage.
Roco Linehan took on the bulk of the scoring duties in the second half, scoring a brace, with assists going to Xavi Tchana and Eli Connolly. Mr. T. then capped off the scoring, with Ben Manning credited with the helper.
With only one goal allowed on the season thus far, the Marauders take to the road Wednesday for a trip to Milford.
