South Bend 1929 Heartland Trophy winners

nmleague · 01-27-2004, 04:37 PM

South Bend, in the teams first trip to the playoffs, via a one game playoff for the East wild card, defeated Des Moines in the 1929 Heartland Series. South Bend also defeated Green Bay for the Eastern conference title, Green Bay set a record for wins in the NML this season.

I was an interesting series, South Bend still riding high from the upset of Green Bay, won the first three games. Des Moines, already with two NML championships to their credit, showed what got them to the series by battling back to win the next three games. But South Bend was not to be denied winning game seven 12-6 for the Heartland Title.
