Men's Soccer Holds Off Blackburn 2-1 in Exhibition

SPRINGFIELD, IL - The Prairie Stars men's soccer team held off a pesky Blackburn College team to take a 2-1 win in the only exhibition game of the season.

The first goal came off a hard shot by Brian Doellman from 25 yards out.  In attempting to clear the ball, defender Devon Sims mis-hit the attempt and the ball rifled into the back of his own goal, giving UIS a 1-0 lead at the 34:55 mark of the first half. -more-

Unlike last season when the Prairie Stars were breaking in their new athletic arena with a lot of early-season home matches. This year’s schedule is bottom heavy – meaning UIS will be on the road for the first month of the season. -more-
