GORHAM, Maine -- Caddy Brooks (Darien, Conn.) and Tim Brown (Manchester, Mass.) each scored three goals to lead Colby College to a 15-1 victory over the University of Southern Maine in a non-conference men's college lacrosse game Tuesday at Hodgdon Field.

The Mules are 6-7 overall and play at Wesleyan University at 11 a.m. Saturday. Southern Maine dropped to 2-9.

Senior Troy Lieberman (Andover, Mass.) and freshman Todd Boertzel (Mountain Lakes, N.J.) also scored in the opening quarter to give Colby a 3-0 lead.

The Mules added to their lead in the second quarter scoring four times. Brown opened the scoring 11 seconds into the period, and Brooks had the fourth goal.

Brooks' third goal put the Mules up 9-0 before Southern Maine got it only goal of the game from senior Zach Fermanis. The Mules would score six more goals over the final 24 minutes of play to account for the 15-1 final.

Lieberman, Piekarski and junior Ryan Scott (Columbia, N.J.) scored two goals apiece.
