Yorktown gave it a whale of a shot, but Delta maintained the sectional supremacy it has long enjoyed. The Eagles survived a 3-2 slugfest with the Tigers in the final of their own sectional. Delta was one of two HHC teams to claim sectional titles. Mt. Vernon took the crown at its own tournament.

 

The Mt. Vernon site was quite an HHC affair. Greenfield-Central soared past Pendleton Heights 4-1 in the opening round before falling 5-0 to New Palestine in the second round. Meanwhile, the host Marauders were escaping Lapel in the semi-final 3-2. They then repeated the feat over the Dragons by the same score in the final.

 

In the other two sectionals involving HHC squads, Rushville fell to eventual champion Franklin County 4-1 at Connersville and Shelbyville fell to Southwestern.
