Lauren Pulido handled the scoring for the Cabrillo girls soccer team in a 3-1 season-opening win over visiting Arroyo Grande on Tuesday.
Pulido scored all three goals, two coming in the first and the third via a penalty kick in the second half.
At the defensive end, goalkeeper Maya Mendek was terrific. She made 11 saves, including a stop on a penalty kick.
“It was great to finally play a game after more than a year off,” said Cabrillo coach Derrick Wong.
The Conquistadores play at home Thursday against St. Joseph.
