Bob Watson turned aside 45 of 48 shots as the Toronto Rock remained undefeated Saturday, routing the Rochester Knighthawks 17-3 in a National Lacrosse League game at the Air Canada Centre. Garrett Billings scored five times for the Rock (3-0) and added another three assists as his team raised $17,000 for earthquake relief efforts in Haiti. Rock owner Jamie Dawick announced before the game that the team would donate $1,000 to World Vision for every goal the Rock scored. Billings, the Toronto rookie who also scored five times against Boston two weeks earlier, had a hat trick in the first quarter as Toronto built a 6-0 lead over Rochester. Billings now has 11 goals in three games. Rock captain Colin Doyle had a goal and six assists and now has 23 points — including a league-leading 20 assists — in three games. The Rock will visit Rochester Saturday for the back end of their home-and-home series with the Knighthawks. Toronto's next home game is Feb. 5 against the Philadelphia Wings.
