Gerba recorded the first regular season hat trick in Impact history, in a 5-0 win over Crystal Palace Baltimore on Aug. 21.
Gerba also scored the quickest goal in team history just 18 seconds into a 2-0 win over the Rochester Rhinos on Aug. 27, and added his team’s second goal in the 81st minute.
Two of his goals in August were game winners.
