Tuscarawas (7-0) and Tuscarawas Valley (7-1) are assured berths in this week's Sectional Class "A" Baseball Tourney following Tusky's win over Port Washington (2-6) yesterday.  The Broncos, who went against Baltic this morning to climax their regular season are assured of at least a tie for league laurels.  Tusky Valley ended play Friday.  A Tusky win today means the county crown.  Both schools will be represented today at the office of County Supt. W.E. Laws at the drawing for the nine-school tourney.  It will open Tuesday at Sugarcreek with games set for 1:30 and 3:30.  Other schools will include Dover St. Joseph's, Dennison St. Mary's and representatives of Holmes, Carroll and Coshocton counties.

Tusky pounded out 7 hits in the win over Port, while Gary Caviness (2-0) gave up only one hit for the victory.  Larry Laisure (1-1), John Landon (1-5) and Jim Bender (0-0) went to the hill for Port.  Caviness walked 4 and fanned 6.  Dick Brown carried the big stick for the Broncos with 4 singles.
