This is the only thing I could find on the Greencastle Goat.  Wonder if it was like the keg we had that passed around - oh gracious

On the other side of Dr. Stroube’s card to the Herald: A group picture of Coach Clodfelter and his squad of Putnam County Tournament Champs. The players are centered around a regular, real, live goat and under the picture in brave, bold lettering are the words: Greencastle’s Goat!”

Must be the Greencastle team, winner of the 1922 tourney ?
