Hofbrau Wins Third Straight Merchant League Title



McInnis Carpentry affiliate The Hofbrau, owned by Mike Novak, recently won it's third straight Quincy Merchant's League Championship. The Hoffy defeated malachy's in Game 7 of the best-of-seven series. The games were played under the lights at Kincaide Field.
Throughout the finals, Malachy's received great hitting and defense from Billy McDougal and Mal Higgins, but the Hofbrau defense was just too much to handle as Steve Lannan kept a potent Malachys offense in check throughout the series.

The Hofbrau completed an undefeated regular season which extended it's winning streak to 27 games over two seasons. They are now 50-4 since that streak started last season.
The team will hold a cookout, hosted by Head Coach George Murphy. The event will feature Ward 1 Councillor Leo Kelly, who will present the Championship Trophy to the team.
