From the Logansport Pharos-Tribune, November 1947-One of the oddities on the record books this year is the following score: Hanover 2, Saluda 2. The game was played on November 2, 1947 at Hanover and when the final whistle blew, the host quintet was leading 18-17. The Hanover principal forfeited the game later when he discovered that one of his players was ineligible. shortly afterwards, the Saluda principal discovered a similar situation under the transfer rules. He also forfeited. The IHSAA ruled it a double forfeit and the books show it a tie, 2-2.
