Bangalore: Two-goal efforts by Abhishek P N and Karthik propelled St Joseph’s Boys’ High School to crushing 7-0 victory over Dream A Dream in the St Joseph’s Boys’ High School Centenary hockey tournament for seniors at the KSHA Stadium here on Friday.

Abhay opened the floodgates for the Josephites as early as in the sixth minute while Akshay doubled the tally in the 21st.

Dream A Dream’s dreams of making a match of it went up in smoke as Abhishek P N slotted in the third goal just two minutes later for St Joseph’s. Karthik then scored twice in quick succession (27th and 29th) as the Josephites went into the break with a comprehensive 5-0 lead.

More misery was in store for Dream A Dream as Trishul Chinnappa got into the scorecard with a 53rd-minute strike to make it 6-0. Abhishek scored in the very next minute, his second goal of the match, to complete the rout.

In the Fr Eric Vaz Memorial tournament for juniors, Frank Anthony Public School edged out St John’s High School 1-0. Ivor Drooge netted the all-important goal in the 22nd minute.
