The Byhalia Indians, like most programs during this baseball season, have been hampered by an uncooperating weather element, but they managed to get a couple of games in last week.

The Indians were up against the Dragons of M.S. Palmer on March 26 and it was a cold game; however, the players played through and displayed little discomfort. Austin Yielding took the mound for Byhalia. The first Dragon batter sent a bunt up about 15 feet which was handled by Yielding with a throw to first.
