West Columbia, SC - Brookland-Cayce eked out a 2-1 overtime decision against arch-rival Airport Thursday night at Eagle Stadium.

B-C posted a 1-0 lead in the 29th minute as Brazilian exchange-student Eduardo Adam hammered home a goal from a Jose Guzman dummy on a Josh Davis corner kick. Airport's defense stiffened in their final third and turned back many Bearcat chances as B-C failed to push their advantage.
