The Buhler High School girls soccer team opened Kansas Class 4-1A West regional play with an 8-0 clean sheet (shutout) against Wichita Collegiate Monday at Crusader Stadium.
It was the second straight shutout over Wichita Collegiate and third consecutive clean sheet victory for the Crusaders defense and goal keeper Josie Cummins.

“The girls took care of business in the first round of regionals with an 8-0 win over Wichita Collegiate — 10 minutes into the second half,” said Buhler soccer coach Randall Rank.
The Crusaders, the No. 5 seed in the Kansas Class 4-1A West Regional 4, improved to 11-4-2. No. 12-seed Wichita Collegiate finished the season with a 2-15 record. The game time was moved up 2 1/2 hours because of weather concerns.
