Worcester, MA— Daniel D’Ippoito made his Stockade FC starting debut in a big way on Saturday night as he collected the third hattrick in Stockade FC history!
Twenty-eight minutes in, Stockade FC would strike first. Jared Juleau sent Hugo Guerra down the line to sweep in driven ball that D’Ippolito would slide and force home.
Just 5 minutes later, Valeo would equalize through Matthew Bell off a long throw in.
After slick back and forth action, Stockade would regain the lead in the 67th minute as Andrea Nguionza and Jacob Schulman combined to send D’Ippolito on go, around the keeper and finish calmly.
Again, Valeo equalized just 4 minutes later.
Not to be outdone, Stockade FC would, again, regain the lead as Schulman lead in Joey Dolan with the perfectly weighted ball for Dolan to head across and D’Ippolito to pound home in the 75th minute.
A gritty effort defensively in the rain closed out the match as a big save from Jaiden Pean was needed to finish it off.
Stockade FC starts the year with 2 road wins headed into the home opener at Tenney Stadium vs Syracuse on May 27th at 6PM.
