5 ON IT

In a make-up game, the Hornets took a trip to Orange Coast College on Monday and won 5-0. 

The game was originally played last Tuesday, October 11th with FC up 4-1. The game was halted in the 57th minute due to lightning in the area. Since it was stopped before the 70th minute of play, the game had to be re-played from the beginning on Monday. 

The Hornets took advantage of some early goals in the first half taking a 3-0 lead. Ryan Esparza scored in the 2nd minute with the assist coming from Adcel Salinas. In the 8th minute, FC struck again when Joseph Espinoza took the assist from Daniel Gutierrez for the second score. Alex Anido scored the third goal in the 21st minute with the assist coming from Kan Hanada. 

Fullerton added two more goals in the second half to seal the win. Nima Ahmari knocked the ball into the back of the net in the 51st minute with the assist by Misael Gonzalez. Joseph Bustamante got in on the action with an unassisted score in the 86th minute. 

Hayden Frost got the nod in the goalie box, tallying his 2nd shutout of the season.
