Brampton pressed for an equalizer early in the second half and at 52 minutes Nunes struck his first when he found the net from close range. 
Nunes, 20, who plays also for Humber College and is considered one of the most promising young prospects in the region, beat St. Catharines ‘keeper Chris Kurdzeil at 84 minutes to put Brampton ahead 2-1 and he scored again five minutes later to complete the hat-trick. It was 3-1 at the final whistle in favour of the Toronto area team.
It was goals 7, 8 and 9 in the current campaign for Marcos Nunes to lift the Brampton native to second place in the CSL goalscoring race.
The win improves Brampton to a 5-1-0 WLT record for second place in the First Division standings, three points behind league leaders Kingston FC.
