LOS ANGELES -- Cal State LA's men's soccer team was seemingly headed for a much-needed California Collegiate Athletic Association victory on Sunday, but visiting Cal Poly Humboldt had other ideas.

The Golden Eagles saw a 2-0 lead evaporate in the final 12 minutes and had to settle for a 2-2 draw in University Stadium. Cal State LA (6-3-5, 3-3-1 CCAA) picked up one point with the tie and now has 10 points, which leaves the Golden Eagles in fifth place in the conference with three matches remaining. The top six teams will advance to the conference tournament.

Cal State LA was in control for most of Sunday's match until Cal Poly Humboldt (2-10-2, 0-6-1 CCAA) struck back with a 2-on-1 break that resulted in a goal in the 79th minute and a free kick from just outside the box with less than three minutes left that tied it.

Cal State LA had an 18-8 advantage in shots, but didn't score after potting two goals in the first 22 minutes of the game.

Cal Poly Humboldt goalkeeper Edwin Monterrosa made 10 saves to keep his team in the contest and able to rally for the late tie.

Cal State LA took a 1-0 lead on Erick Alamo's fifth goal of the season in the 13th minute. Ignacio Moreno started the play with a pass to Felix Alverdale, who sent a nice cross to Alamo, who quickly headed it inside the right post.

The Golden Eagles then made it 2-0 in the 22nd minute on a spectacular strike from Geovanni Antuna, who curved a free kick from just outside the box into the upper corner for his second goal of the season. 

The Golden Eagles were unable to add a third goal despite several chances, but still seemed to have things in hand before a breakdown led to a 2-on-1 counterattack for Cal Poly Humboldt in the 79th minute. Lucas Carballo made a long run into the zone with only one defender back and slid a pass to Luke Gomes, who finished to the left post to make it 2-1.

Then, after a foul in the middle of the field just outside of the box, Shota Lam drilled in the equalizer in the 88th minute.

Andreas Christou had four shots for the Golden Eagles, while Angel Sandres had two shots.

Cal State LA honored its five seniors - Angel Sevillano, Joel Green, Sergio Vega, Alex Mendez and Hunter Devlin - in pregame ceremonies.

The Golden Eagles will return to action on Friday with a home game against Cal State San Bernardino.
