Soccer: UNLV men surprise fifth-ranked UConn
Monday, Sept. 24, 2001 | 9:27 a.m.
Fifth-ranked Connecticut, the 2000 defending national champion, received quite a shock as the unranked UNLV men's soccer team pounded out an 6-1 upset Sunday afternoon at Peter Johann Memorial Field in Las Vegas.
Sophomore Alex Hernandez had a career day against the nationally-ranked Huskies, collecting his first collegiate hat trick. Hernandez, a midfielder from Indio, Calif., completed his fourth goal of the year at the 31:37 minute mark off a pass from junior defender Reggie Bolden to spark the offensive effort early.
