Hold your phone–it’s not over yet!
For the second straight year the Dowling Golden Lions have earned a spot in the East Regional despite not winning the ECC Conference due to their strong 27-15 record.
They will take on No. 2 Stonehill in the first round, who is currently 33-13.
Last season, Dowling won the first three games of the tournament behind complete game by Tyler Badamo, Tom Bammann and JJ Bessell but were defeated in consecutive games by St. Thomas Aquinas.
They will be the No. 6 seed despite winning the ECC Conference and will draw a tough Franklin Pierce team who is 46-2 and have not lost since March 25.
