FOREST GROVE, Ore. — The back half of a two-goal performance by junior Jake Castanha served as the overtime winner for Pacific in a 2-1 home victory over George Fox at Ledbetter Field at Hanson Stadium.
 
The Boxers (7-4-0, 4-3-0 NWC) opened the scoring in the 16^th minute when senior Weli Alamillo (Aiea, Hawaii) drove down the right wing and delivered a low cross across the goal mouth and saw Castanha (Santa Barbara, Calif.) tap-in his second goal of the season.
 
George Fox (4-9-0, 2-5-0 NWC) evened the score in the 52^nd minute after Moises Manon fired a shot from 21 yards out and found the upper corner inside the far post.
 
Castanha looked to win it in the 65^th minute, but saw George Fox goalkeeper Andrew Phillis make a strong reaction save, before Pacific senior Leyton Thommasen (Des Moines, Wash.) made a terrific save on the other end of the field a minute later.
 
Two big chances were saved off the line by George Fox defenders as headers to the near post in the 70^th minute and 83^rd minute were pushed away by the heads of Bruin defenders.
 
The Boxers would win it in the 98^th minute when Castanha pounced on a ball at the top of the 18-yard box from senior Matt Kimball (Tigard, Ore.) and drove a low shot inside the far post to earn the three points for Pacific.
 
THE MATCH WAS OVER WHEN… Alamillo sent a corner toward the front of the goal mouth that found the head of Castanha in the 98^th minute. After Kimball headed Castanha's initial header back toward Castanha at the top of the 18-yard box, the junior calmly slotted a low driven shot to the back post to win the game for the Boxers.
 
STAT OF THE GAME… Castanha's two goals bring his season and career goal total to three.
 
NEXT UP… The Boxers head to Tacoma on October 14 for a noon kickoff at Pacific Lutheran.
 
HAT TRICK, QUICK FACTS…
1… All five of Pacific's goal scorers this season have multiple goals under their belt.
 
2… Junior Keilian MacCulloch (Glengarry, Ontario, Canada) was the Boxers' lone field player to go the full 98 minutes on Friday evening.
