On March 31, the Lady Lions dropped the Chelan game by a score of 14-8 after jumping to an early lead. Liberty Bell scored eight runs in the first two innings while holding Chelan to three. But Chelan reeled off the next 11 runs to seal the victory.

Coach Lee Pilkinton said Liberty Bell played good defense, committing only three errors.
The Lady Lions rebounded with a 13-1 win at Tonasket on Thursday (April 2).
