HAMILTON Olympic striker Kane Goodchild scored a hat-trick in a comfortable 5-0 win for his side in the Northern NSW NPL on Saturday.
Leaders Olympic beat the Jets youth team at Darling Street after leading 3-0 at half-time.
The young Jets troubled the home side in the first half, creating several clear chances and forcing turnovers, but two defensive errors cost them dearly.
Olympic controlled the second half as Goodchild completed his hat-trick with a close-range header from a clever Simon Mooney cross.
Midfielder Jacob Bailey and substitute Pat Brown also scored as Hamilton went five points clear at the top of the table.
