JACKSON – Millsaps junior Aaron Hyatt notched his first career hat-trick to propel the Majors to a 10-1 win over Huntingdon College at Harper Davis Field Friday night, the most goals scored in a single-game in the modern men's soccer era.
Starting the scoring early was Colin Thompson who netted his third goal of the season off an Anthony Amaya corner kick, Amaya's fourth assist of the year. The Majors continued to press the offensive advantage, scoring five more goals before the end of the first half.
With sustained pressure in the second half, Millsaps proceeded to net in four more goals to secure their place in the history books.
Phil Guillot and Thompson both just missed hat-tricks, with both contributing goals in the two halves of play. Also contributing with goals were Drew Dews, Jr. who just missed a second goal off bicycle kick. Corey Beaumont netted one along with Brandon Mong.
Senior Domenick DiPaolo returned between the posts for Millsaps, evening his record to 3-3 on the year with a pair of saves. Splitting time in net for Huntingdon were keepers Jarryd Keene and Jordan Osborne who combined for 12 saves.
Millsaps will wrap up its non-conference play on Sunday, taking on Rust College at Noon.
