The Liberty Center Lady Tigers found the Delta Lady Panthers to be a much stronger opponent than the team they easily defeated 53-32 earlier in the season. However, they were able to break open a tight game in the third quarter, outscoring Delta 15-8, and go on to win 41-31 in a Dlll District Semi-Final game at Lake High School on Wednesday night. The Lady Panthers used a tight defense to hold the Lady Tigers to just 16 first-half points and only trailed by three, 16-13, heading into the decisive third frame. Both teams scored 10 points in the fourth quarter as Liberty Center held on for the victory.

The Lady Tigers improved their record to 21-3 and advance to play the Van Buren Lady Black Knights, a 58-38 winner over Evergreen in the first game, for the Dlll District Championship and a trip to the Dlll Regional Tournament. The game will be played on Saturday 2/25 at 1:00 PM, also at Lake High School. Delta finishes the season with an 11-13 record.
