Mueller's hat trick leads Post Falls past Lewiston

* BOYS

POST FALLS - Timmy Mueller had three second-half goals and assisted on another in the first half to lead the Post Falls Trojans past the Lewiston Bengals 4-0 in a 5A Inland Empire League match Tuesday.

"I thought we started a little slow," Post Falls coach Gabe Lawson said. "There was lots of rain and wind and just really treacherous conditions. We were going with the wind in the first half, and I thought we'd put together a few more goals, but it was a rough game. Lewiston is a very physical team. Conditions weren't ideal for playing soccer today and the wind was really the killer."

Sam Enfield had a goal and assist for Post Falls (4-1, 1-0 5A IEL), which travels to St. George's on Thursday.

Lewiston is 2-5, 0-3.

First half - 1, PF, Sam Enfield (Timmy Mueller), 19:00. Second half - 2, PF, Mueller (Zach Smith), 65:00. 3, PF, Mueller (unassisted), 70:00. 4, PF, Mueller (Enfield), 75:00.
