The Pirates took an early 1-0 lead with 14:30 remaining in the first half, but it was all Robins from there. Jose Leon Estrada scored 3 times before halftime to give the Robins a 3-1 lead. Estrada scored 3 more times before Nick Johnson found the back of the net off a nice pass from Estrada. Seventh grader, Dylan Sibila, scored the first goal of his Robins’ career by burying a direct kick from 30 feet out to extend the Robins lead to 8-2. Estrada put his 7th goal of the game in the net with 2:45 remaining, tying a team record for goals in a single game. Josh Reis was solid in net, making 12 saves. Recording assists for the Robins were: Grady Lease, Dylan Sibila, Noah Mittendorff, Micah Bomgardner, Jayda Johnson, Nick Johnson and Hector Vega Flores. The Robins are at home next Tuesday at 4:45 when they face the Rochester Raiders.
