The Blinn College men's soccer team earned a 2-1 double-overtime victory over Paris Junior College in Region XIV action Saturday in Paris, Texas.

After the conference foes entered extra time tied 1-1, it was freshman forward David Garcia who, in the 110th minute, sent the Buccaneers to victory when he netted a feed from sophomore Kamille Kum and freshman Pascal Pfeifer.

"It was a very physical game and it's a tough place to play," Blinn head coach Michael McBride said. "The lads poured everything they had into this game. Under the circumstances, this is probably the best result of the season so far."

Blinn is now 8-4-2 on the year and 4-3-1 in region play. The Bucs are in third place in their conference.
