Lady Bears' bidistrict game with Dayton will be played Tuesday at 3 p.m.

It’s been a crazy couple weeks for the Little Cypress-Mauriceville Lady Bears.

After the swine flu pushed back their Class 4A Region III bidistrict date with the Dayton Lady Broncos by a week, more tough news came with the rain Monday.

The Lady Bears, District 20-4A runnerups, were suppose to play the Dayton Lady Broncos at 6 p.m. at Lumberton High School. However, high winds and bad weather squashed that.

The two teams will duke it out today at 3 p.m. at Lumberton High School.

The winner of the LC-M-Dayton game will face District 17-4A champion Elgin, which downed Willis 3-1 and 9-1 in bidistrict, in the area round later this week.
