URBANA — Uni girls soccer has never gone as far as it has today: the Class A sectional semifinals.

This afternoon the Illineks will travel to Williamsville, a few miles northeast of Springfield, to play the host Bullets, the No. 1 seed in Uni's bracket and the defending sectional champs.

To get to this position, Uni first had to knock off Monticello on Tuesday. The Sages defeated Uni last year in the playoffs, and they were looking for a repeat performance this year.

But thanks to a pair of Shara Esbenshade goals and tough defense all around, the Illineks prevailed 2-0 to raise their record to 11-5-2. Check out this slideshow for a look back at the team's memorable and satisfying win. Woo hoo!

The Pain...

I feel so hurt. Not one mention of the first appearance (this year) of the Uni High Pep Band.

Oh. And congrats to the team. Hope you win Thursday!
