COLUMBIA, KY - No. 19-ranked Lindsey Wilson cruised to a 7-0 win over visiting Jamestown (ND) on Friday night, October 7, 2016, at Walter S. Reuling Stadium.



Aleksi Pahkasalo -- the reigning Mid-South Conference and NAIA Men's Soccer Offensive Player of the Week -- continued his scoring binge with three more goals in the win. Pahkasalo has 10 goals in his last three games while recording his 12th career multi-goal game.

Andrew Revanales and Mutaya Mwape joined Pahkasalo with a big offensive night. Revanales ended with two goals and two assists while Mwape tallied two goals and one assist.

Lindsey Wilson controlled play for the majority of the game, out-shooting the Jimmies 27-11 in the match, including 14-1 in shots on goal.

The Blue Raiders grabbed the early lead in the 16th minute as Pahkasalo scored off a Moustapha Fofana assist. Fofana sent a ball from the right flank into the top portion of the penalty area where Pahkasalo one-timed the ball into the lower left corner of the goal for the 1-0 lead.

Jamestown had its most successful stint of the game over the next few minutes. The Jimmies had opportunities to level the match, but missed wide twice inside the penalty area and hit the right post off a free kick from 20 yards out.

The Blue Raiders quickly turned the momentum back to the home side in the 32nd minute with a goal from Revanales for the 2-0 lead.

Dioulde Niane began the scoring play with a precision cross to Revanales in the penalty area. After a one touch, Revanales blasted a shot that Jamestown goalkeeper Jake Askew rejected. But the save ricocheted back to Revanales who headed the ball past a defenseless Askew to double the Lindsey Wilson lead.

Lindsey Wilson used clinical passing to set up its third goal of the half.

Niane, Pahkasalo and Revanales played a three-man passing game just outside the penalty area. Pahkasalo finished the passing display with a final strike into the back of the net in the 41st minute for the 3-0 lead.

Less than two minutes later, Pahkasalo recorded his third straight hat trick this season. Mwape delivered a ball inside the six-yard box from the end line to Pahkasalo for the 4-0 lead. With the goal, Pahkasalo moves into a tie for eighth on the program's all-time career list with 47 goals.

Lindsey Wilson continued the scoring onslaught in the second half.

Revanales pushed the lead to 5-0 in the 54th minute off an Israel Reyna assist -- his first of the season. Revanales later added an assist, setting up Mwape in the middle of the field with only the keeper to beat. Mwape hammered the ball past Askew for the 6-0 lead.

The Blue Raiders capped the night's scoring in the 63rd minute as Mwape scored his second goal off another Revanales assist. Revanales now has nine goals while Mwape boasts seven this season.

Alvaro Cortazar recorded his fourth shutout of the season while collecting one save. Askew stopped seven Lindsey Wilson shots while allowing all seven goals.
