1965 held at Clearwater, Florida.
Champion – Aurora Sealmasters, Aurora, Illinois
Runner Up – Clearwater Bombers, Clearwater, Florida
The Aurora Sealmasters, led by big Joe Lynch on the mound, who rolled through 5 straight opponents to finish 5-0 won the national title over the Clearwater Bombers. Lynch hurled a 2-0 shutout in the finals to give the Aurora squad the title. This was the 13th time in 16 years that Clearwater made it to the finals.
Weldon Haney was the star pitcher for the Bombers and Bobby Quinn for the third place Providence Engineers. The other Sealmaster pitchers, Harvey Sterkal and Charlie Richards both agreed to let Joe Lynch pitch all the games. He was on such a roll at the end of the season and was virtually unhittable. They did not pitch at all, just sat back and watched the big man work.
