what is another word for a BLAST "hit"?

I use BLAST "hits" extensively, as does the literature: https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s002390010184 and https://blast.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/Blast.cgi?CMD=Web&PAGE_TYPE=BlastTips

is there a synonym for hits from BLAST?

I'll probably go with "matches" even though it doesn't sound as good as just "hit"
