L&T staff report

 

The Lady Redskins found themselves behind against the Campus Lady Colts in the first round of the Class 6A playoffs, and despite a rally, Liberal’s season came to an end in a 4-2 loss.

The Lady Colts found momentum in the first half when a corner kick led to a goal for a 1-0 lead, and seconds later, Campus scored a second goal after the Lady Redskins turned the ball over on the first possession after the initial goal.

Lily Guy set the school scoring record with a first-half goal and tied the game in the second half, but two more corner kicks led to two more Campus goals, and Liberal’s season ended in a 4-2 loss.

The Redskins pitchers allowed 11 walks in four innings while only striking out four. Lawrence Free State was able to score 11 runs on only seven hits.

The loss ended Liberal’s season.
