It was not a pleasant night for the Patriots.
Playing through a driving rain for most of the evening, the Jay County High School boys soccer team suffered its second shutout in three games Thursday in a 3-0 loss to the visiting Liberty Christian Lions.
Liberty Christian (10-2-3) got on the scoreboard 12 minutes into the game after the Patriots (8-4-3) were called for a foul inside the 18-yard box. David Crook converted the ensuing penalty kick to the right corner for a 1-0 lead.
Crook scored again on a breakaway two minutes later as he beat goalie Austin Cowan to the ball and chipped it into the net. He finished off his hat trick with a score at the nine-minute mark of the opening half.
Cowan finished with five saves for JCHS, which also fell 6-0 Sept. 22 to Marion.
