BINGHAMTON — Thanks to three assists from freshman Liam Doyle, the Jamestown Community College men’s soccer team posted a 4-0 win over SUNY Broome on Wednesday, drawing the Jayhawks closer to hosting a Region 3 playoff game later this month.

The regional showdown between Jamestown CC and SUNY Broome started off as a slugfest with neither team scoring through the first 43 minutes, but just before half, Doyle found fellow newcomer Luca Marini in the box, and the Irishman didn’t miss the point-blank shot to give the Jayhawks a 1-0 lead heading to the break.

Just 10 minutes into the second half, Jamestown CC doubled its advantage when Doyle found the ball after a scrum in front of the net, and he once again spotted Marini, who potted his second of the day for a 2-0 Jayhawks edge.

Fast-forward to the 77th minute, and once again it was Doyle passing out an assist as he found another freshman in Jack Morris, who buried his fourth goal of the season for a 3-0 Jamestown CC lead.

The Jayhawks had one more goal in them before boarding the bus; this time it was Casimiro Espeso Gayt spotting teammate Sam Hynes for a 4-0 final.

In net, Theo Merlin stopped all three shots he saw behind a dominant Jamestown defense, led by captain Sam Little.

The win moves Jamestown CC to 9-5 overall and 6-3 in league. The Jayhawks are now on the cusp of hosting another playoff game, needing one win in their last three regional games to secure home field in the quarterfinals.

Jamestown CC stays on the road Saturday when they visit nationally ranked Herkimer at 1 p.m.
