The first-place Tommies (10-2-2 overall, 6-0 MIAC) scored the tying and go-ahead goals in a 90-second 
span late in Wednesday's comeback win over visiting Macalester (3-9-1, 2-4) in MIAC men's soccer play at UST's South Field.
St. Thomas, which pushed its winning streak to six games, had a 12-6 advantage in shots, but corner kicks were 4-.
Junior Nick Rapisarda scored the eventual-game-winner, his 10th goal of the season, unassisted on a breakaway in the 78th minute. He now has seven goals in six MIAC games.
Alex Bernhardt had scored tying goal in the 77th minute, assisted by Macalister Enderson.

Mac's Ben Dugoni scored off a corner kick in the 51st minute to break a scoreless tie. UST keeper Mitchell Wolff had two saves and improved to 9-0-1 on the season.
"We talk every day about taking care of the details and staying open minded in our approach in order to win different ways," said UST coach Jon Lowery. "It wasn't how we would prefer to play, but we made changes to find the result. This is about getting better every day, and today was valuable towards our team continuing to cement our identity."
The Tommies are home Saturday to face St. John's (1 p.m.).
