Shorthanded Redskins Hold Off Hays

Liberal’s soccer team played shorthanded Tuesday and lost to Garden City 4-0.  They were even more shorthanded Thursday night and found a way to beat Hays 2-1 at the Gary Cornelsen Sports Complex.  Liberal played with five starters and their 12th man mainly due to injuries and quarantines.  Angel Munoz scored a first half goal and scored a second goal at the 31:33 mark of the second half for a 2-0 lead.  Hays scored at the 14:28 mark to make it 2-1.  Liberal held off Hays the rest of the way in an emotional and hotly contested game riddled with yellow cards.  Liberal is 5-6 overall and has won four of their last five.  They are 2-4 in the WAC.  The Indians are 1-6-1 in the WAC and 3-8-1 overall.  Liberal plays Wichita East on Monday in the Wichita North Cup.
