It took an extra 40 seconds, but the Eagles were willing to wait to get a win in their first boys soccer conference game at home against Lockport Monday night. And the win was in large part a result of Danny Lojek's work.
Lojek, a senior midfielder, scored the only goal in a 1-0 victory over the Porters less than one minute into overtime. He has been scoring goals all his life.
