Blemano’s Big Effort Goes For Naught as Pioneers Fall in Opener

GRAYSLAKE, Ill. --- Last season, prior to being moved to forward, Prairie State sophomore Priscilla Blemano (Robert F. Hall Catholic Secondary School, CANADA) was the Pioneers' starting goal keeper and was ranked amongst the nation's top shot-stoppers.

With a revamped PSC lineup and plenty of potential offensive punch to go around, Blemano is no longer needed at the top and is once again back between the posts.

Despite a huge effort from their sophomore net-minder, the Pioneers fell in their season-opener to Skyway Conference counterpart Lake County 4-0 Wednesday afternoon.

Blemano turned away 15 of the 19 shots she faced in the match.

With only one contest played, Blemano is already fifth on the national saves chart.

Prairie State placed six shots on goal as freshman Xotchil Villegas (Morton East H.S.), freshman Liz Stevens (Cobham Hall and Chlarton Post-16), (2 shots), freshman Ivano Rubio (Prepa Idel H.S., MEXICO), (2 shots) and freshman Camila Morales (Bloom H.S.) all put attempts on the frame.

The Pioneers will take to the pitch next on Tuesday when they travel to Kankakee for a road date with the Cavaliers (5 p.m.).
