The Liberty Belles are named in honor of a team which played in the National Women's Football Association and Independent Women's Football League from 2001-2004 (and in fact, won the NWFA's inaugural 2001 championship). Despite the namesake, there is no connection between the two teams and only one person related to this team from the original (Carol Grubb).
