Pekin 2, Galesburg 1

The Pekin girls soccer team got back on the winning track Monday, earning a 2-1 non-conference win at Galesburg.

It didn't take long for the Dragons (8-6-1) to get on the board, with Allie Zuercher scoring off a Jakki Johnson assist just over a minute into the game.

“It was a great goal and a well executed corner,” said Pekin coach Edgar Sandoval. “It looked like we'd be able to score at will after that, but I think it might have given our girls too much confidence.”

The goal ended the scoring in the first half, with the next tally coming four minutes into the second half when Johnson assisted on Lauren Cash's goal.

Galesburg scored a goal in the 59th minute, but that was as close as the Silver Streaks would come.
