Peeples and Perez Score in No. 22 Broncos' Win

POMONA, Calif. – As a testament to the difficulty of the California Collegiate Athletic Association (CCAA), one only needs to watch a single game. The Cal Poly Pomona Broncos men's soccer program secured a win on Wednesday night as they topped local rival Cal State San Bernardino 2-1 in overtime.
 
On the winning play with just one minute to go in the first overtime, senior defender Justyn Peeples sent a shot into the back of the Coyotes' goal after a shot from Mathew Perez was deflected by the visiting defense.
 
The win improves the Green and Gold to an overall 7-1-3 mark on the 2015 season, complete with a 4-1-2 record in conference play. With the loss on the night, the visiting CSUSB squad now holds a 3-5-3 season tally with a 1-3-3 showing thus far in the CCAA.
 
A great crowd showed up to watch the Broncos at Kellogg Field as the evening was also CPP's Breast Cancer Awareness night. Sharon Hall, a breast cancer survivor, spoke during halftime of both games in the doubleheader.

The matchup between the Broncos and Coyotes proved to be fairly even as CPP finished with a slight 10-9 edge in shots. San Bernardino broke through for the game's first score, when Tony Lo recorded his fifth goal of 2015 with a strike in the 44th minute. Less than two minutes until halftime, he lined a shot into the right side of the net to put CSUSB ahead 1-0.

After a 30-minute delay in the game because of lightning, the Coyotes held that 1-0 advantage until the 81:52 mark. After a free kick along the right side bounced off a CSUSB defender, Perez controlled the ball once again and lined a blast over the head of the Coyotes' keeper to tie the score at 1-1.
 
Another line-drive shot from Perez led to the winning goal in overtime as a deflection bounced to Peeples, who showed quick reflexes in putting the second-chance attempt in the back of the net.

The Broncos will return to action Friday at 7 p.m. with a home match against Chico State. It'll be Heroes Night at Kellogg Field, with current and former police, fire and military personnel will receive free admission.
