Worcester, Mass. --- WPI senior Chris Ciampa netted a tournament record four goals as he propelled the Engineers to a 5-0 triumph over Becker in the opening round of the Worcester City Tournament this evening at Coughlin Field.
The Boynton Hillers (1-0) square off with Worcester State at home in an attempt to defend their crown from last season on Sunday at high noon. The Hawks (0-1) take on Clark later at 2:30 PM, which will also be played at Alumni Field.
In earlier action, the Lancers and the Cougars drew to a 1-1 tie in double overtime.
Ciampa got the Crimson and Gray started when he hit home an unassisted tally from 20 yards out on a free kick in the eighth minute. His second goal of the contest came nearly three minutes later on a penalty kick to help WPI stake the early 2-0 advantage.
In the 18th minute, Ciampa turned in a natural hat trick on a rebounded header by junior Eric Crevoiserat.
Freshman Nate Peterson potted his first collegiate marker in the 39th minute off of a corner kick from classmate Scott Spear. Spear also picked up his first career point with the long-range assist.
Ciampa helped the Engineers close out the scoring in the 72nd minute on a breakaway as he received some help from Crevoiserat, who sent a middle cross to the right side of the field.
Becker's lone chance to break into the scoring column came in the 24th minute when Jose Galvez-Lovo (Nashua, N.H.) hit a floater that was wide to the left.
With his four goals this evening Ciampa now has 27 in his career while he also established a new tournament record for points in a single contest (eight).
Senior Jeff Wong and junior Michael DeMarco shared time between the pipes for the Crimson and Gray as Wong started the first 78:05 to earn his 19th career win.
