Beavers Bash Redskins Again

Liberal had hopes of showing improvements against mighty Scott City one week after a 66-51 loss at home. The Beavers had other ideas in destroying the Redskins 66-38 Friday night at the Colby Community Building.

The Redskins played well early building a 15-10 lead. Scott City (9-1) would bust out a 36-5 run to blow it open. Scott led 18-15 at the end of one quarter, 36-20 at the half, and 60-28 at the end of three. Liberal head coach Drew Gruver said during the postgame show that the team gave up during that third quarter.

Scott City blistered the nets at 59 percent shooting. Drew Kite led the Beavers with 18 while Brett O’Neil scored 12. DeVondre Livingston led LHS with 13.

Liberal is 3-8 and plays for third in the Colby Orange and Black Classic Saturday at 4 p.m. on Talkradio 1270 and kscbnews.net.

The Redskins play Wichita South who lost 63-48 to McCook Friday night.
