The Buhler junior varsity girls soccer team lost to Wichita Bishop Carroll 3-0 Friday at Crusader Stadium. All three Bishop Carroll goals were scored in the first half.
“After going down 0-3 at halftime, the (Crusader JV girls) responded with a strong second half to finish 0-3,” Ranks said. “Proud of the growth we’ve seen all season — and especially tonight. Competing against teams of that caliber is where real growth happens, and they rose to the challenge.”
The Buhler varsity and JV teams host McPherson on Tuesday and play at Salina South on Thursday.
