After dropping a road game earlier in the week to Great Bend by rune rule, the Lady Redskins returned home for a double header with the Lady Panthers and despite a solid effort in Game 1 of a double header, the Lady Redskins dropped both games.

Devaney Carter pitched Game 1 and kept the Lady Panthers scoreless for two innings before a pair of fielding errors led to a five-run inning for Great Bend.

The Lady Panthers pushed the lead to 8-0 with three more runs in the top of the fourth, and it appeared the Lady Redskins would get run-ruled. But the defense stiffened and only allowed one more run in the sixth inning.

The Liberal Lady Redskins hosted the Hays Lady Indians for a key Western Athletic Conference game Thursday at Redskin Field, and after one half of play, storm clouds rolled in and led to a cancellation of the second half.

The first half was dominated by defense.

Liberal had one golden opportunity when Lily Guy broke free for a one-on-one shot attempt, but the ball sailed wide.

Liberal’s long stretch of road games to start the season continued Tuesday at Goddard, and the Redskins dropped a double header to the Tigers.

Liberal only allowed runs in one inning in Game 1, but it was a six-run inning for the Tigers which was enough to hand the Redskins a 6-2 loss.

Liberal scored a lone run in the second and led until the bottom of the fifth when the Tigers pushed six runs across the plate.

The Redskins added a lone run in the sixth and fell short 6-2.
