Christian Anderson posted a natural hat trick (three consecutive goals) within an eight-minute stretch during Eastern Wayne's 5-2, non-conference conquest of North Lenoir on Thursday evening.
Anderson factored into the Warriors' first goal - an assist to Cameron Bou just 74 seconds into the opening half. Anderson converted a penalty kick in the 21st, found the back of the net on Bou's assist less than a minute later and pushed the lead to 4-0 with goal off Tymir Turner-Wade's assist in the 28th.
Alfrado Cabrera tallied his lone goal on Anderson's assist in the 51st minute.
Goalies Bryan Morales (10 saves) and Josh Gross combined for the win between the pipes.
Eastern Wayne (3-1-1 overall) returns home Tuesday to face perennial Big East 3-A power Wilson Fike. Kickoff is 7 p.m.
