PAULSBORO – Three was a big number in Foglein Bowl IV this year.

Bragging rights around the family Thanksgiving table goes to the younger brother for the third year in a row and Stone Mumink scored three goals to lead the charge.

Mumink scored a hat trick in a four-goal first half and Derek Foglein’s Pennsville squad went on to beat Paulsboro and older brother Doug 6-1 Friday in Foglein Bowl IV

Doug won the initial installment of the soccer sibling rivalry when he was coaching at Clayton, their alma maters. Derek and the Eagles have won each of the last three years, the last two convincingly.

“I’m really happy with how the team stepped up and took care of business, and beating Doug to cap off a three-win week made it feel a little extra special,” Derek said. “We really want to take the momentum into a huge game with Woodstown on Monday.”

After a slow start, the Eagles (4-6) started scoring in rapid fire fashion. Mumink scored the first two goals of the match on penalty kicks, then Jake Isaac made it 3-0 shortly thereafter. Mumink completed his hat trick before the half ended, giving him a career-high six goals for the season.

Trevor Hann extended the lead to 5-0 before Justin Roman Venosa got Paulsboro (0-9) on the board. Brody Wiggins scored the final goal on an assist from Stathis Efelis.

“Honestly, I felt again we started a little slow and Doug really had his team up to play,” Derek said. “It took us about 22 minutes to get the first one off a little bit of a controversial PK, but the second one was very quick after that and it was an obvious PK. Then the passing connection to Jake for the third came shortly after and we took control of the game.

“I was excited to get Brody a goal. He’s a junior who’s played for me all three years and always works really hard in practice. He usually plays outside back, so I put him up at striker and got him the sixth goal.”
