After dropping their first two games of the season, Liberty battled back to win two straight, including a 1-0 win over rival Freedom last week.
Tula Sobrinski scored the game winner in the rivalry series and Emerson Dougherty registered the assist to help push the ‘Canes back to the .500 mark.
Liberty (2-2) will now try and build off that momentum with games against Whitehall (2-3) and Parkland (4-0) this week.
Freedom (4-2-1) look to bounce back in a tough week of action headlined by a showdown with Emmaus (5-0) on Thursday. The Pates also face Stroudsburg (2-3) and Northampton (4-2).
Bethlehem Catholic (1-6) picked up their first win of the season last week in a 10-0 win over Pocono Mountain West.
The Hawks have a difficult slate of three games ahead of them this week with East Stroudsburg South (2-3), Easton (5-0) and Nazareth (2-1) on the docket.
