NASHUA. N.H. – Sophomore midfielder Ian Mendoza (Mount Airy, Md.) produced a game-high four goals and nine other Cadets found the back of the net en route to a 19-0 Norwich University Great Northeast Athletic Conference win over Rivier April 7.

Norwich (6-4 overall, 4-1 GNAC) got on the board quickly, as sophomore midfielder Marco Wiederaenders (Denver, Colo.) notched his first of two goals in the period just 1:27 into the game. The Cadets would add five more goals to take a commanding 6-0 lead after one.

The Raiders (4-5 overall, 1-4 GNAC) battled back in the second, limiting the potent Norwich offense to just two goals – one by senior midfielder Patrick Sikora (Montpelier, Vt.) and the other by Mendoza.

The Maroon and Gold put the game away for good with an eight-goal third period, highlighted by sophomore attacker Ian Thomas' (Barrington, R.I.) hat trick. Sophomore goalkeeper Mark Paradiso (Westford, Mass.) made just five saves as he recorded the shutout for Norwich.
