Pioneers Close Out Season on High Note

CHICAGO HEIGHTS, Ill. --- After registering an impressive 4-2 victory over Illinois Valley in its previous match, the Prairie State women's soccer team was primed and motivated to close out its 2026 campaign on a high note.
 
That mission was most-certainly accomplished.
 
On an afternoon in which head coach Carlos Reyes honored his team's three sophomores, the Pioneers delivered a convincing 5-2 victory over NJCAA Region 4 counterpart Harper Friday at the Pioneer Athletic Complex.
 
PSC wraps up the campaign with an overall record of 3-10-1.
 
Prior to the match, sophomores Priscilla Blemano (Robert F. Hall Catholic Secondary School, CANADA), Camilla Morales (Bloom H.S.) and Mia Ortiz (North Grand H.S.) also received commemorative, framed photos of their time as Pioneers.
 
Blemano, who spent the bulk of her career at PSC as one of the region's top goalkeepers, spent the end of the season playing forward.
 
The native of Caledon East, Ontario went out in style, tallying a pair of goals in her final match as a Pioneer.
 
Blemano opened the scoring in the 32nd minute when she ripped a short shot past the Hawks' keeper.  The tally was set up by a strong pass from freshman Maelys Baron (Lycee Carnot H.S., FRANCE).
 
PSC extended its lead to 2-0 in the in the 40th when freshman Xotchil Villegas (Morton East H.S.) redirected a rebound into the back of the net.
 
Harper made it a 2-1 match with a goal as time expired in the opening half.
 
Blemano gave PSC back its two-goal cushion in the 63rd when she accepted a feed from Villegas and slipped it past the Hawks keeper.
 
Baron got in on the scoring act in the 70th when she corralled a pass from Blemano and blasted a well-struck shot for the tally.
 
Baron recorded her second marker in the 81st to close out the scoring when she redirected a rebound.
