BETHLEHEM, Pa. - Sophomore Joey Jacona (East Stroudsburg, PA/East Stroudsburg South ) tied his own school record, scoring 5 goals on Thursday afternoon to lead Northampton to a 10-0 victory over Lehigh Carbon Community College in Region XIX men's soccer action. 

Jacona, who scored 5 goals in a game last season vs. Delaware County Community College (10/19/2015), had 2 goals in the first half and 3 in the second, as the Spartans improved to 2-0-0 overall.
