Pekin 5, Limestone 0

BARTONVILLE, Ill. -
Pekin’s girls soccer team got through the bad weather and made things stormy for host Limestone Tuesday, shutting out the Rockets 5-0 in a Mid-Illini Conference match.
Colleen Quilty scored twice for the Lady Dragons, who handed Limestone (2-1, 0-1) its first loss of the season.
Quilty got Pekin on the board in the first half, scoring off a Sarah Zuercher assist in the 18th minute for the only tally of the first stanza.
Zuercher put the ball in the net next for the Lady Dragons, scoring off a Lauren Cash assist in the 45th minute. Quilty had an unassisted goal in the 57th minute, followed by Kelsey Armstrong’s unassisted goal in the 65th minute.
Jakki Johnson closed the scoring off a Zuercher assist in the 77th minute.
The Dragons will host six-time defending conference champion Morton on Thursday in a 4:15 p.m. match at Coal Miners Park.

NOTE: Michaela, not Colleen scored twice in this match.
