B-C Clip Eagles in OT

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.

Late in the second half, the Eagles' Andrew McKinney converted a penalty kick in the 77th minute to level the match at 1-1 and send the game to overtime.

In the second overtime period, the Bearcats were rescued by German exchange-student Tyll Weyer's header from another Davis' corner kick with just under one minute remaining to salvage a 2-1 victory.

The win gives B-C a 45-13-4 overall mark against Airport and a 25-7-1 mark at Eagle Stadium. Coach Kevin Heise's record against the arch-rival Eagles improved to 24-1 and 14-0 at Eagle Stadium. Brookland-Cayce now owns a 30-1-1 mark against Airport since 1987. The two sides will meet again on April 24 at The Cage.
