Princeton 4, Pekin 0

PEKIN - Pekin's offense stalled in a 4-0 non-conferenec girls' soccer loss to Princeton Saturday at Coal Miners Park.

Princeton (8-3) had two goals in each half and has now won four matches in a row - outscoring its opponents 15-2 during that stretch.

"Even though the scoreboard didn't really show it, I was really pleased with the defensive effort," Pekin coach Edgar Sandoval said. "They challenged every shot and made it difficult for Princeton to get clean looks at the goal. Yes, we made some mistakes which led to scores, but this was a vast improvement over the Bloomington game."

Pekin did not have an official shot on goal. Freshman Lindsay Coffey had 11 saves for the hosts, who travel to Mid-State 6 Conference leader Notre Dame Tuesday night.
