It was a tale of two halves Saturday at the Colby Community Building. After the Lady Redskins led by as many at eight in the first half (21-13) and took a 21-16 lead into the locker room, Hugoton dominated the second half and used a 41-8 run to win 56-33. Hugoton goes 2-1 in Colby and takes fifth.
Liberal played without guard Lyric Robinson who scored 20 Friday against Scott City. Liberal played her in too many junior varsity quarters so she had to sit one varsity game.
Hugoton forced LHS into 28 turnovers. Liberal shot 29 percent while the Lady Eagles shot 41 percent in the game but 54 percent in the second half.
Hugoton freshman Riley Sosa blistered the nets in Colby with 17 points and made five three pointers. Nicole Kinser added 14 and Miranda Ramsey scored 13.
Liberal’s Jai Chapman scored 16 in the loss.
The Lady Skins are 2-10 and the Lady Eagles are 7-5. LHS hosts Holcomb Tuesday night at 6 p.m. for a game which airs on Talkradio 1270 and kscbnews.net. Hugoton hosts Sublette on Friday.
