Maquoketa Defeats Wyoming in Muddy Showdown
Maquoketa High School toppled Wyoming 6 to 2 on Wyoming’s home field amid a muddy, slippery ball and numerous fumbles.

The victory came despite weight disadvantage and strong Wyoming lines, with contributing players listed and a postgame note on Armistice Day services and free dinner for soldiers by the American Legion auxiliary and WEG at the G A R Hall.
