The Indians then faced the Cassville Comets in non-conference action at home on Monday, Jan. 21. The Indians easily trounced the Comets, the last-placed team in the Six Rivers-Western Conference, with a score of 49-29.

The next conference game for the Indians will be tonight, Thursday, Jan. 24 at home against Kickapoo (1-7).

Next Tuesday, Jan. 29, the Indians face the undefeated Ithaca Bulldogs, the only team that they have lost to this year. The game, to be played in Ithaca, promises to be an exciting grudge match for the Indians.
