Regular season champion Earlville put
together four solid games in helping themselves to the LTC tournament title, the first for the Red Raiders since 1926. The tournament was held at Hinckley, but Earlville
must have felt it was a home away from home for that week as they defeated Serena (28-20), Plano (22-13), Shabbona (33-32) and finally Sandwich in the championship game by the score of 25-18. Sandwich reached the title game by winning over Paw Paw (30-26), Leland (30-13) and
Rollo (34-33). Shabbona won the third place game over Rollo 44-33. The consolation bracket was dropped from the tournament schedule.
