When the soccer Lady Liberators last met the Lady Bulldogs in Rolla during the 2023 season, they were on the receiving end of a 1-9 loss. Playing host to this conference opponent last Tuesday, April 16, Bolivar was looking for some redemption. In their fifth game in as many days, the Lady Liberators battled fatigue in addition to their on-field challengers. Bolivar fought to stay competitive in the first half keeping Rolla out of the goal but was unable to control possession and convert shots themselves.

The Lady Liberators entered the Willard Tournament last Friday, April 12 as the defending champions, anticipating a possible re-match of the 2023 championship with the home team. Bolivar easily dispatched Neosho and McDonald County in two 8-0 matches Friday, securing their spot in the title game Saturday with Willard. Bolivar defeated Willard a week prior in penalty kicks at home after a 1-1 tie forced two overtime periods. As expected, the re-match was an intense battle on the pitch before the Lady Liberators fell in a 0-1 loss on a penalty kick in the final seconds.
