Match Report: UKC (M) 5 - 0 STU(M)---Round 3 ACAA

The men's Blue Devils rolled to another easy victory on Saturday, scoring 5 goals for the second time in four days against St. Thomas.

This time, they didn't give up a goal, though, after conceding an own goal against NSAC on Wednesday in a 5-2 win.

It was the second half which again gave Kings' their win, as they scored 4 of their 5 in the second frame.

Sam Karkilins started the scoring off in the 30th with a brilliant stepover to fool Tommies' 'keeper Aaron Ahier, before rolling his shot home as Brendan Wile tried to block it.

Then Neil MacIntyre entered the game in the second half, taking up a wing position.

The usually defensive player made an immediate impact in the 52nd minute, taking down a long diagonal pass with a deft first touch and striking a curler into the bottom corner with his second.

In the 54th minute, he did it again. Again a masterful touch set his shot and this time he fooled Ahier by pulling across the net and finding the side netting, to put Kings' 3-0 up.

The game began to get chippy and four yellow cards were handed out in the last 30 minutes and a few more might have been given by a stricter referee.

Mark Higgins scored a header in the 80th minute, off a MacIntyre cross. Then Michael Curci scored another header in the 90th to make it 5-0.

"The STU team, if we were to face them in the semi-final or the final, they wouldn't play like they did tonight," said coach C.J. Young. "They'd play more gritty. They're not really trying to show themselves. A lot of teams do that. Where in the league they won't show their strengths, they'll just sort of coast through and hope they make the playoffs and surprise other teams."
