Sockers 2 Move Into First Place With 9-5 Win

 San Diego defeated Las Vegas 9-5 behind Kevin Josue's hat-trick, and two tallies from Chad Hagerty and Jaime Velazquez in a Major Arena Soccer League 2 Pacific Division first-place battle on Sunday at Ron Newman Field at Pechanga Arena San Diego.

The Sockers 2 never trailed in the match, however, they did overcome a four-goal performance by the Knights' Chance Rosa. Lorenzo Ramirez and Adalberto Castellanos tallied single goals for San Diego. Yair Aguilar earned his third win in goal by making some key saves. 

San Diego's offensive firepower has been on display by scoring nine or more goals in its first three games. Hagerty (2-1=3) has multi-goal games in the first three games of the campaign.

The Sockers 2 will host the Arizona Lightning on Sunday, January 20, 12:35 pm at Ron Newman Field at Pechanga Arena San Diego.
