Box Score

PROVIDENCE, R.I. – Seven Bison enjoyed multi-goal outings during the Bucknell men's water polo team's 18-7 rout of Austin College Saturday afternoon.

Rade Joksimovic, who earlier in the morning netted nine goals against MIT, paced the Bison (2-0) with a hat trick and one assist. Caio Jordao (1g-4a) and Jared Stanley (2g-3a) had five-point outings while Jack Otto turned aside 12 shots in the cage.

Jordao's four assists represent a new career high. Stanley matched his career highs in both goals and assists. In addition, Mitchell Scott (2) and Bence Fazekas netted their first collegiate goals.

The Bison raced out to a 10-0 lead in the first quarter and never looked back. By halftime, they had extended their lead to 15-3, a 12-goal edge that proved insurmountable for the first-year-program Kangaroos.

Three Bison drew two ejections: Fazekas, Scott Little and Logan Schofield. Jack Lewis and Oliver McClymonds tied for the team high with four steals.

Bucknell next faces host Brown at 6 p.m.
