September 28, 2024 – United Soccer League Championship (USL)
Indy Eleven News Release
Indianapolis – Indy Eleven forward Augi Williams became the third player in franchise history to record a hat trick to lead the Boys in Blue to a 4-0 victory over Miami FC at Carroll Stadium on Saturday night. Williams scored all his goals in a 13-minute span in the second half to increase a 1-0 lead to the final margin. Forward Elliot Collier came off the bench to assist on the first and third of Augi’s goals, and defender Logan Neidlinger recorded his first career assist on the other one.
Augi now has eight goals on the season to rank second on the Eleven behind Jack Blake, and he climbed three spots in the USL Championship Top Ten list to a tie for sixth all-time with 74 career goals in league history, just one goal behind teammate Sebastian Guenzatti.
The other Boys in Blue to record hat tricks are Manuel Arteaga on June 4, 2022 at Charleston and Eamon Zayed twice-June 12, 2016 vs. North Carolina and August 4, 2016 vs. Jacksonville.
The Boys in Blue tied a franchise record with four goals in a half, matching the total for that June 4, 2022 match at Charleston. The first goal tonight came on a Jack Blake penalty kick in the 62nd minute. Blake is a perfect 6-6 on penalty kicks this season, one behind the franchise record of seven by captain Aodhan Quinn last season and Ayoze.
Goalie Hunter Sulte made one save to record his seventh clean sheet this season.
The Boys in Blue moved up one spot to fifth in the Eastern Conference with the victory.
Indy Eleven hosts Marvel Super Hero™ Night next Saturday at 7 p.m. at Carroll Stadium vs. USL Championship Players’ Shield leader Louisville City FC.
Single-game tickets for both remaining regular-season home matches are available at Ticketmaster. For information on all ticket options visit the Indy Eleven Ticket Central. For questions, email tickets@indyeleven.com or call (317) 685-1100.
