The Indians finished first in 6 of the 15 sports during the Fall & Winter seasons. ( Boys Soccer, Girls Soccer, Girls Cross Country, Girls Tennis, Boys Basketball and Boys Swimming ). St. Marys and Ottawa Glandorf both place 1st in 3 sports while placing second in two others.
St. Marys placed first in Wrestling, Boys Bowling and tied in Girls Bowling. Ottawa Glandorf won Volleyball, Girls Basketball and Girls Swimming ).
The other first place finishers were by Defiance in Girl Cross Country, Elida in Boys Golf. Kenton and Wapakonea shared the Football title.
Points are awarded for each sport according to the conference standings. First place is awarded 10 points, second 9, third 8, etc.
