More than a game...
Tonight, two teams, the Yantis Owls, and Cumby Trojans, came together on the field—not just as competitors, but as one baseball family—to pray and play for Wade Batchelor, #41.
Before the first pitch, both teams joined in a powerful moment of prayer, standing united for Wade as he recovers. It was a reminder that while we may wear different jerseys, we stand together when it matters most.
We’re all playing for you, Wade.

Reminder: No school this Friday and Monday!
Take this time to relax and enjoy the Easter weekend with your family and friends.
We will see everyone on Tuesday, April 22nd.
T-shirt benefit for Yantis Junior, Wade Batchelor!
As many of you know, Wade is currently recovering from a serious spinal injury and has a long journey ahead. To help support him and his family we are selling T-shirts, created in his honor. Proceeds will go directly toward his recovery and medical expenses.
Let’s rally together and support this family in every way possible! Every shirt counts, and every dollar makes a difference.
