Handful view soccer loss
Soccer didn't prove as fruitful to Jayhawk fans this weekend as football did.
Unlike the packed stadium and TV coverage of Saturday's football win, the KU soccer club lost to K-State 4-1 at KU before a handful of spectators—mostly Wildcat fans.

The first half ended 1-0 in favor of the Wildcats on a goal by Regis Leal of Brazil.
After about 15 minutes of play in the second half Leal again scored for K-State after a perfectly centered corner kick. A few seconds later he scored again to make the score 3-0 for the Wildcats.
KU started penetrating the K-State defense more effectively during the latter part of the half. They managed to kick what appeared a sure goal except for a stretching save by the K-State goalie. The Jayhawks scored
