OXFORD – Kaylin Tefft of the Lady Blackhawks scored three of her team’s five goals to record a hat trick during Wednesday’s game on Oxford’s pitch against Afton/Harpursville, awarding the home team a 5-0 shut out conference win.

The Blackhawks outshot the visiting team 20-4. Afton/Harpursville’s Ashlynne Caffery and Trena Byers spilt time in the goal. The two combined for 15 saves in the loss as Byers recorded eight and Caffery stopped the other seven shots.

With just 8:43 taking off the clock to start the game, the Blackhawks’ Raven Brophy-Quintana took a pass from Shane Backer-Bush and put the ball past the Afton/Harpursville keeper for the first goal of the game. From there, Oxford opened up the scoring floodgates as Tefft scored the next three.

Tefft’s first came with 15 minutes left in the first half, giving the Blackhawks a 2-0 advantage. Following the intermission, Tefft found the back of the net with less than seven minutes coming off the clock. She scored her third and final with 20 minutes left in the game.

On each of her three goals, Sylvia Yates, Hailey Fleury and Logan O’Brien delivered assists as Oxford distributed the ball well throughout the game.
