Experience big for short handed Lady Buffs soccer team
Garden City High School enters the 2014 season with seasoned players but limited depth after a 9-7-1 finish in 2013 and a 1-0 state playoff exit to Wichita North. Coach Joaquin Padilla relies on 38 return goals, top scorers Megan Martinez and Maria Rodriguez, and a strong defense led by Alyssa Martinez while hoping freshmen rise to fill bench gaps. The team opens Tuesday at Wichita Northwest and faces a tight 16-match schedule through May with focus on speed, midfield strength, and a cautious early test against Wichita teams.
