Men's Soccer Knocks Off Cosumnes River

Second place in the Big 8 standings was up for grabs when LRCCD sister-college Cosumnes River visited FLC last night.  The bipartisan crowd was treated to an intense match that went 62 minutes before a goal was scored.  It was then that Falcon freshman Santiago Peniche broke the scoreless tie with his third goal of the season, giving the Falcons a 1-0 lead they would not relinquish.  With the win, the Falcons find themselves in sole possession of 2nd place in the Big 8 (behind Santa Rosa) at 2-1 and are now 5-2-2 overall.  They'll host Modesto on Friday at Falcon Stadium at 4:00 pm.
