Worcester, MA --- WPI freshman Chris
Ciampa (Danvers, MA) had two goals and two assists in
his second collegiate contest, helping the Engineers to a 6-0 win
over Anna Maria College on Clark's Turf Field in the opening game
of the 2010 Worcester City Men's Soccer Tournament.
In addition to Ciampa, junior Kevin
Ducharme (Bedford, NH) recorded a pair of goals and
senior Mike
Ford (Whitman, MA) added a pair of assists to help
give WPI their third straight win in the tournament dating back to
2009. Those three victories have come by a combined score of
13-0.
The Engineers wasted little time scoring as Ciampa set up
Keeon
Tabrizi (Harvard, MA) less than six minutes into the
contest.
Ciampa was back at it again less than 20 minutes later when he
served up a ball that Chris
LaBarre (Southwick, Mass.) sent to the back of the
net.
WPI was right back at it in the early moments of the second half
as Ford sent a ball into the box that Ducharme headed home for a
3-0 Engineer advantage.
Ciampa would score the next two goals with help from Ford and
Steve
Partridge (Worcester, Mass.) to increase the WPI edge
to 5-0.
The Engineers final goal came courtesy of a corner kick as
Matt
Rosen (Branford, Conn.) played a perfect ball to
Ducharme for his second score of the game at the 70:48 mark.
WPI netminders
Paul Moan
(Watertown, Mass.) and
Kirk
Dragsbaek (Sherborn, Mass.) each made two saves to
record the shutout.
Anna Maria backstops Eric Perkins (Peabody,
Mass.) and Mike Dandurand (Warwick, R.I.) combined
to make five stops, despite being peppered with 19 WPI shots.
The tournament continues on Sunday at Becker as the Engineers
face off with the host Hawks at 2:30pm and Clark faces the AMCATS
at noon. In Friday's other contest, Clark shutout Becker
4-0.
