The first three batters got on base with a triple and two walks respectiv...

That team was the No. 1 overall seed (21-4) entering the playoffs and knocked off a tremendously talented Oceanside team to advance to face Massapequa, but they had their dream season cut short at SUNY Old Westbury. Going into last year, they were still confident that they would make a deep run. “Going into 2020, we thought we had maybe the second best rotation in the count...

Port Washington Eager To Avenge Their Tough Playoff Loss From Last Year
(Photo Credit: Gregory Giaconelli) Anytime a bitter postseason loss occurs, it results in a long, long off season. In perhaps one of the most exciting games in recent playoff history, Port Washington fell to Plainview in 12 innings last season. This game took over the course of two days to eliminate them from the playoffs. Clearly, this one hurt. As a result, Port Washington is eager to avenge their playoff loss. Not only are their players working hard this off season, but the numbers for winter workouts are higher than ever. Saying the Vikings are hungry is an understatement. Port Washington finished last season with a regular season record of 9-8-1, but they know they were better than that. Two of their regular season wins came against Massapequa and Oceanside, the two teams that compete...

The final pitch of the game came a little after 5PM on Monday evening. On Sunday evening, this w...
