How It Happened

• It took just 10 minutes for the Yellow Jackets to get on the board. They were awarded a free kick just outside the right corner of the box where Colton Howell (Sr., Glen Allen, Va. / Glen Allen) placed the ball on the near side. Connor Lorenz (Sr., Bel Air, Md. / Bel Air) timed his jump perfectly and got enough of a touch to head it in near the far post.
• A substitution led directly to the second goal in the 22nd minute. Just 54 seconds after entering the game, Hawkins Adcock (So., Chester, Va. / Thomas Dale) dribbled down the right side into the box and sent a laser inside the near post.
• The Jackets had a similar start in the second half. Exactly 11 minutes in, Bogue Cummings (Jr., Midlothian, Va. / Midlothian) scored to the upper right 90 after Penny Senior (Sr., Kingston, Jamaica / Meadowbrook) centered him up from the left side.
• Just 2:02 later, the roles reversed and Senior scored on a beautiful bicycle kick from the left corner of the box on a pass from the right side of the field from Cummings.
• Senior wasn't done as 1:35 after that, he drilled a free kick from just outside the right corner of the box.
• The sixth goal came on a pass from Alec Mowry (Jr., Salem, Va. / Salem) as he centered to Chazz Jones (So., Trenton, N.J. / Trenton Catholic) from the right side.
• Andres Garcia (Sr., Fairfax, Va. / Bishop O'Connell) capped the scoring on a free kick from 28 yards out in the 83rd minute.

Inside The Numbers

• Howell's assist was his second of the season and his 11th in 11 games dating back to the spring season.
• The four second half goals came in a span of 4:52.
• Senior was involved with three goals for the first time since the ODAC quarterfinals when he scored a hat trick against Guilford. Tonight he scored two goals and assisted another.
• Adam Braithwaite (Fr., Chesterfield, Va. / Matoaca) wasn't called upon to often during the game as a result of the hi-octane Yellow Jackets offense, but when he was he made the stops. He finished with two saves on seven shots faced for his third clean sheet of the season.
• The seven goals are the most the Yellow Jackets have scored since a 7-1 win against Fisher on October 13, 2013.
• The seven goal differential is the largest margin of victory the Yellow Jackets have had since September 26, 1998 when they defeated Chowan 12-2.
