Cubs Win Two League Games In Maquoketa Valley Action

The Monticello Cubs won two league games last week in Maquoketa Valley play, beating Guttenberg 2 0 with five hitter Bob Tvrdik on the mound and then defeating Cascade 11 9 in a high scoring affair. Tvrdik scattered five hits through five innings to hold Guttenberg scoreless as Monticello rallied with timely hitting. Art Schmidt opened the fourth inning with an error resulting in a run, and Johnny Hines drove in the other run on a single by Schmidt. In the Cascade game Monticello trailed 3 5 after three innings but rallied with six hits in the sixth to take a 9 5 lead, before Cascade tied it. Monticello answered with two runs in the seventh and an insurance run in the eighth to seal the win. The Cubs next played at Dyersville and then head to Maquoketa for another league game.
