South-Central Border League Champions

These are the Carman Cardinals from 1957, the team that brought Carman its first championship in senior baseball, or any other sport for that matter, in many years. After squeezing past Miami in the semi-finals they defeated Plum Coulee Hawks in straight games in the finals to win the South-Central Border Baseball League championship.
