Rows 2 and 6 — The named-gap cluster, dug from open sources and converted honestly: Gap-Spo-1, Gap-Spo-2, Gap-Spo-5

THE CONVERSION ARTICLE · NOVEMBER 2026

The three gaps were re-dug from open sources for this section; none of the three records is open, and each gap below prints its tested search and its settler sharpened — converted, not closed:

GAP-SPO-1 (CONVERTED) — Harris Baseball/Softball's founding. Searched this run: the league's own site and postings whole (history: none published; the site speaks in the present tense from registration to the 2026 rebuild); the press of record as reached (the league enters print as "Harris Township Little League" in a February 2015 obituary and as tournament host in July 2018 — both uses, neither a founding account); the IRS-derived directories (the present corporation's exemption, November 2018, and the Heat's, December 2016 — corporate dates, expressly not the league's founding); and Little League's public records (its league-finder and charter material name current charters, not a historical charter course for a league that no longer plays under the name). The founding year, the Currant Road complex's construction date and financing, and the Little League-to-present transition remain unsettled. Settler, sharpened: the Indiana Secretary of State's business-entity record for Harris Baseball Softball Inc. (the incorporation date and registered agent, obtainable from the State's entity search) fixes the corporation's birth, after which the league's minute books and Little League International's charter records for the South Bend-area districts — with the Tribune archive at MPHPL/SJCPL — are the only records that can carry the line back to the first season.

GAP-SPO-2 (CONVERTED) — Michiana Echo's founding. Searched this run: the club's own site whole, including its earliest dated items (nothing before the April 2015 TOPSoccer report reached carries a founding claim; the site publishes no history page); Indiana Soccer's public record (its champions lists fix Echo teams winning divisions by the fall of 2016, and its affiliation material is current-year only); the trustee's published account (the Brummitt lease in place by October 2018, its phrasing implying play on the ground before the lease — texture, not a date); and the merger coverage of February 2026 (a "20+ year plan" for the merger itself, which dates the clubs' rivalry, not Echo's founding). The founding year and original seat remain unsettled; the club is fixed in Granger, at standing, by April 2015, and no open source reached carries it earlier. Settler, sharpened: the club's Indiana Secretary of State entity record (creation date of the corporation) and Indiana Soccer's affiliation files (first affiliation year), with the club's board minutes and the Tribune/ABC57 archives behind them.

GAP-SPO-5 (CONVERTED) — St. Pius X's ICCL trophy record. Searched this run: the diocesan paper's ICCL championship coverage on the open web (Today's Catholic, 2015–2016: Christ the King crowned basketball champions, February 2016; Mishawaka Catholic's baseball title, June 2016; St. Anthony's football title, 2015 — champions named season by season, and no St. Pius X of Granger among them); the South Bend Common Council's 2006 commendation resolutions (ICCL champions Corpus Christi and St. Anthony/St. Joseph — South Bend schools); the school's own athletics pages (program and tiers, no trophy list); and the general web, where every "St. Pius X" championship return reached belongs to another St. Pius school in another state, as the Sports leg already found. One near-miss is printed and not claimed: a September 2011 Today's Catholic ICCL football report describes a defending-champion combined team as "St. Anthony (St. Joe, South Bend/St. Pius X)" — a combined-team name string whose St. The trophy question therefore stands exactly as gapped, with the search now shown: no ICCL championship for St. Pius X of Granger appears in the open record. Settler, sharpened: the ICCL's own archives (the league keeps its schedules and records through its member-school site structure) and the school's trophy and banner record in its own gymnasium — the two records that between them are the whole of the question.
