On a drizzly and cool March evening, Sidwell took the trip up to Bethesda for a Friday night date with the Bears from Landon. Starting pitcher Cody Encarnacion would throw well through four tough innings, but the offense did not provide much back in terms of offensive output, finishing the day with just two hits and both baserunners being put-out on the basepaths. The Bears pitchers, issuing no walks, and defense (no errors) would go on to face the minimum number of Sidwell batters required for this seven-inning game which ended in less than two hours.

The Quakers hope to make a longer game (and a positive one) next week as hosts to neighboring Jackson-Reed Tigers.
