The STLCC men's soccer team bounced back with a thrilling overtime win on day two of the NJCAA National Men's Soccer Tournament.  After falling 3-0 in their first game against #3 Barton, the Archers came away with a 2-1 win over #6 Georgia Miliary College to wrap up pool play.  STLCC took a 1-0 lead at 65:27 of the contest, thanks to a goal by sophomore Josh Graham.  The 1-0 lead lasted until there were only three minutes remaining, when Georgia Miliary evened the scoring at one and forced overtime.  It only took the Archers less than a minute of overtime action to finish the contest, as sophomore Noah Vezzu burried a pass from Graham at 90:44 for the 2-1 win.
