The Dixie Boys 14-year-old team just may have found its way into the championship game of the sub-district tournament in Luverne.

Troy led Greenville 9-0 in the top of the fourth inning in the semifinal game. The game was not over by press time, so final results will be in Wednesday's edition of The Messenger.
