The junior transfer from San Bernardino, California, has quickly established himself as one of the most clutch and consistent attackers on the Oaks’ roster this season. Garcia delivered once again in Menlo’s thrilling 2-1 comeback victory over Westmont College, where he scored the game-winning goal in the 82nd minute. After the Oaks regrouped at halftime and equalized through Manuel Portillo in the 63rd minute, Garcia seized his opportunity, capitalizing on a defensive mis-clearance inside the box and calmly slotting home the decisive strike, his lone shot of the match. The goal added to his impressive season totals of four goals and two assists, further cementing his reputation as a difference-maker for Menlo. Garcia’s hopes to continue his composure, timing, and attacking instincts into this week’s matchups against Cal Maritime and Fresno Pacific University.
