Kearney, a junior forward from Valley Stream, led the Stanners to a 9-0 rout of St. Joseph by the Sea Friday night by scoring three of his team’s four first period goals.
For Kearney, among the leading scorers in the CHSHL B division, it was his first career hat trick. He also added an assist on Mike Farrell’s third period goal.
“It was good we scored goals to put us up early, it put the pressure on them,” said Molloy coach Richie Rodgers. “Sean picked his corners and I’m glad for him. I just wish we could have saved a few of those goals for later in the year.”
