For one quarter of football, Yazoo County had kept Madison Ridgeland Academy off the scoreboard in the 2010 season opening rematch. By night’s end it was 2009 all over again as the Patriots shutdown the Panthers 47-6 at the swamp.
“I thought we played a heck of a first quarter, considering for a lot of our kids, it was their first time playing a varsity football game,” head coach Matt Williams said by phone. “Kids were playing hard and executing well.”

Dear Editor:
In the 6 April 2013 edition of The Yazoo Herald you published a letter from Cynthia Fuller, "Thanks to (Van) Foster for helping get bridge replaced."
After reading this lettter, I had the impression that the bridge was completed and traffic was moving along normally.
Wrong! Last Sunday I was on my way to homecoming at Providence Baptist Church. I turned north onto old 49 and saw the signs that the bridge was out. I assumed that they hadn't gotten around to removing the signs. I expected to cross Thompson Creek on the new bridge. When I approached the creek the road was barricaded and construction equipment was down in the creek.
Perhaps The Herald can keep us updated as to the progress being made on the new bridge.
