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.
