American forward Haji Wright scored his first hat trick in English soccer, helping Coventry to a 3-0 win over Sunderland on Saturday in the second tier League Championship.

A 26-year-old from Los Angeles, Wright scored in the 21st minute, then converted a penalty kick in the 29th after he was fouled by Chris Mepham. Wright scored in the 73rd for his 10th goal in 19 league matches this season.

Wright returned March 1 from an ankle injury that had sidelined him since Nov. 9. Because he still was regaining fitness, he was not selected for upcoming U.S. matches in the CONCACAF Nations League.
