# Sunderland: Fans laud Will Harris

**Sunderland fans have showered Will Harris in praise after he scored a hat-trick for their U23 side against Wolves on Monday.**

The Black Cats’ senior side have enjoyed a fantastic start to the 2021/22 campaign. They are currently second in the League One table, level on points with leaders Wigan Athletic, and have won six of their opening eight league matches ([BBC](https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/league-one/table)). They have also safely navigated a passage through to the fourth round of the League Cup.

Their development squad have not enjoyed as much success, winning just two of their opening six Premier League 2 matches. However, they put in an impressive display to beat Wolves 3-1, and Harris was in top form as he bagged three times to give his side the win.
