Barton Men 1, KCK 1

It wasn't the result the 11th ranked Barton Community College men's team was looking for Saturday afternoon as multiple chances missed its mark in settling for a 1-1 draw hosting Kansas City Kansas Community College.

The Cougars outshot the Blue Devils 14-5 in the contest, 5-1 on frame with multiple chances especially in the second half of either missing its mark or just out of reach from becoming the go-ahead score.

The result leaves Barton to 2-0-1 in conference play and 5-0-2 on the year while KCK moves to 1-2-1 in league and 2-2-1 overall.

Barton will have the week to prepare for its next contest coming Saturday in hosting No. 3 ranked Cowley College in a 1:00 p.m. kick-off.

Barton Women 2, KCK 1

The 8th ranked Barton Community College women's soccer team passed another test in the rugged KJCCC on Saturday afternoon by winning 2-1 over 17th ranked Kansas City Kansas Community College.

The victory keeps Barton unbeaten against three ranked opponents in the early season, improving to 3-0-1 in conference play and on the season. KCK takes its first loss in dropping to 3-1-1 in league and 4-1-1 overall.

Barton's grueling schedule keeps rolling with another pair of nationally ranked teams coming up beginning on Wednesday in a 6:00 p.m. kick at No. 16 Hutchinson Community College. The Cougars will then return home on Saturday for a 3:00 p.m. hosting of No. 18 Cowley College.
