Box Score CHAMPAIGN, Ill. – The No. 12 Parkland College women's soccer team just could not find the back of the net in a 3-0 loss against No. 13 Southwestern Illinois College on Sunday, October 2nd. The Cobras' freshman goalie Hannah Null made an impressive 19 saves, but it wasn't enough to stop the Blue Storm on Sunday. Parkland falls to 4-3 at home on the season.
 
"This wasn't the result we were hoping for today, but this team showed plenty of heart and effort today," head coach Dan Vogelsang said after the loss. "We don't play until next Saturday and we are going to need all that time to heal our injuries."
