Making his first-ever start at attack for the No. 12 Tigers, Jon Mazza dropped in a career-best six goals to help lead Towson (1-0) to a 13-5 victory over host Mount St. Mary’s on Saturday. The Davidsonville, Marylander was efficient, scoring on six of his 10 shots. He added a groundball to his stat line as well.
Mazza, who played midfield for Towson last season, logged a natural hat trick in the second quarter to help the Tigers open up a lead after a 2-2 first quarter. His natural hat trick was the first for a Tiger since midfielder Ben McCarty did the same at Drexel during the 2015 regular season. His six goals mark the first time since April 20, 2013 a Tiger logged a six-goal game on the road when Thomas DeNapoli did likewise at Drexel.
