FREDERICK, Md.--Five different Blazers found the back of the net as the Hood College men's soccer team (2-2) toppled the visiting Mt. Aloysius College Mounties, 5-1, in its home opener Thursday afternoon at Thomas Athletic Field.

Hood's prolific scoring combination of seniors Tom Noonan and Marcelino Rabara hooked up in the 10th minute to give the Blazers an early 1-0 lead. Noonan netted his 25th career goal and Rabara was credited with his 17th career assist.

Then, five minutes later, sophomore Corey DeMaster made it 2-0 Hood with his first goal of the season. A few moments earlier, DeMaster was forced to borrow teammate Joe Stanley's cleat after his shoelaces broke, but the shoe proved to fit just fine as DeMaster blasted a shot from 20 yards out passed Mountie keeper Brady Griesheimer.

At the 24:57 mark, junior Brandon Garton's first shot attempt was saved by Griesheimer, but, on the rebound, Garton sent one into the upper left corner for a 3-0 Blazer advantage.

Just before the half, junior Tom Sprague tacked on Hood's fourth goal of the stanza, his first of the season, off an assist from junior Quinn Miller.

Hood held an astounding 30-2 advantage in shots in the first half and was awarded six corner kicks.

In the second half, Miller set up Rabara in the 53rd minute for his third goal of the season and 20th of his career.

The Mounties would not be denied however and broke through in the 86th minute when Mitchell Ott lofted a shot over reserve keeper Kyle Hodum for the final margin.

Hood set a school record with 44 shot attempts on the afternoon, eclipsing the previous record of 31 set against Valley Forge Christian College on Sept. 6, 2006.

Sophomore Shawn Fernholz was credited with the victory and made two saves, while freshman Michael Hardman saw 33 minutes in the net and also turned away two shots. Hodum finished with one save in 12 minutes of work.

Hood has a busy stretch ahead with three games over a five-day span. The Blazers next travel to Lancaster Bible College Saturday before heading to top-ranked York College (Pa.) Monday and return home to host Wesley College Wednesday.
