NOTE: In the 1st year of the tournament (1923), Strasburg had hit for 52 points against Gnaden in the championship game of that year. The 52 points held up until 1927 when the Sugarcreek-Shanesville team hit 61 points in a game against Tuscarawas. This year, the Sugarcreek-Shanesville Pirates came close to matching their own record when they hit 60 points against Stone Creek. So, the Sugarcreek-Shanesville Pirates still hold the record of 61 points held since 1927.
