#MustangsWin! Mondragon's Golden Goal Lifts Mustangs Past Eagles!

            Walnut Ridge, Ark. – Dan Mondragon's goal in the 104th minute lifted Central Baptist College men's soccer past Williams Baptist University this afternoon in an American Midwest Conference tilt. Mondragon's goal was his second of the match and moved CBC (6-6-1, 2-0-1 AMC)'s unbeaten streak to seven in a row as they beat WBU (6-3-2, 1-1-1 AMC) 4-3.

            Mondragon and Marcos Pires both had braces for the Mustangs while Chris Orellana had two assists and Andrea Migliozzi assisted on the winner. Andrew Montoya made seven saves in net, including denying the Eagles in both overtimes to preserve the win.
