LEXINGTON- Yazoo County racked up over 180 yards rushing Thursday night, and although the defense shutdown J.J. McClain in the second half, the Panthers closed out the 2010 season with a 30-8 loss.
Yazoo County (1-10) finished winless (0-6) in their district for the first time since 2004 as their losing streak extended to five games.
The Mustangs, who hadn’t won games in a row since September 3, jumped out to an early 16-0 lead in the first quarter by Devonte Anderson and Anthony Smith.
Smith added two more touchdowns in the second quarter including a 59 yard run that gave McClain a huge 30-0 advantage with a little time left to play in the first half.
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.
