Kansas City Kansas Community College’s Lady Blue Devils couldn’t make a 1-0 halftime lead stand up as St. Charles Community College rallied for a 3-1 soccer win Thursday night.

The non-conference loss snapped a two-game winning streak for the Blue Devils, who are 5-2 overall heading into a Jayhawk Conference clash at Coffeyville next Wednesday at 5 p.m.

Freshman Itzel Almanza put the Blue Devils ahead 1-0 with 28 minutes gone in the first half. It was the sixth goal of the season for the forward from Harmon.

St. Charles then tied it 1-1 on a goal by Gabbie Wiesner, went ahead on a shot by Hannah Leahy and added an insurance goal by Bryn Lundberg. KCKCC was limited to five shots on goal as opposed to 10 for St. Charles.
