The second annual Battle of the Border has been set for Tuesday, May 30 at Hofstra University.
The game will begin at 4pm and will be open to the public. Players will be taking infield/outfield and batting practice prior to the game.
We have switched up the format this year–it will now be Long Island vs. NYC as to incorporate all the best players from our great region. In the event that a player is from LI and plays at one of the city schools (or vice verse), the player will have the decision which side to represent.
As per our good friends at the NCAA, in order for a collegiate player to be eligible they must be a senior UNLESS they are from a Div-I four-year program.
The coaching staff and rosters will be announced during the season. Players will be invited based on their success during the 2017 season.
With the 2017 MLB Draft slated for June 12, it will be a perfect opportunity for players to impress teams in hopes of parlaying their success into a professional career.
