Trinidad, CO-After a strong defensive effort in the first half, the floodgates opened over the final 45 minutes
Hallie Velarde scored twice, the Trojans netted three goals in the second half, and Trinidad State blanked Garden City 4-0 Wednesday afternoon. The loss dropped the Broncbusters to 1-15 overall.
Garden City dodged several bullets in the first half. But in the final minute of the period, the Trojans broke through when Reina Sotelo sent a cross to Velarde, who flicked it into the back of the net.
In the second half, Velarde struck again, this time in the 53rd minute with an unassisted goal to make it 2-0. Isabel Pinheiro scored 22 minutes later, and Marlene Mendez put the match away with a goal in the 85th minute.
