McMaster’s senior striker logged the latest chapter in a lopsided career-long narrative against the Western Mustangs Sunday, which has seen him absolutely dominate the Mustangs at Ron Joyce Stadium.
Kovacevic scored a natural hat trick in McMaster’s 4-1 win over Western, lifting his team to a 2-1-1 record in conference play through two weeks. Dispatching all three goals with his head, the Oakville, Ont. native remarkably matched his accomplishment from the same game a season earlier, and moved his career goal tally against Western at Ron Joyce Stadium to nine.
It was a welcome breakthrough for Kovacevic, who had been held off the scoresheet before Sunday’s onslaught.
