Reeths-Puffer’s Evan McHugh sure likes playing against Muskegon.
A few weeks ago, the R-P soccer standout scored three goals in a victory over the Big Reds.
On Thursday he was at it again, scoring four goals to propel the Rockets past Muskegon in O-K Green conference action.
"All four of his goals were hustle plays," said R-P head coach Kody Harrel about McHugh. "We maybe don't score as many goals if it wasn't for his movement, effort and grit and being active around the ball."
The game ended early due to the eight-goal mercy rule.

Connor Simerick added two goals for the Rockets while Matthew Hansen and Andrew Eilers each scored once.
Jax Sieplinga registered three assists while Simerick, Kam David, Cooper Ross, Aaron Perez and Chase Hoeft all had one.
R-P had a 19-0 advantage in shots on goal.
The Rockets improved to 5-3-3 overall on the season and 4-1-1 in conference play.
They will host Ludington on Saturday morning in a good non-conference matchup.
