After a short hiatus, Baseball on the Island<\/i> returns. Not a moment too soon either.<\/p>\n

The playoffs are right around the corner for some teams–and already upon us for some–and Long Island teams are gearing up.<\/p>\n

St. Josephs begins the first-round of the Skyline tournament today as they face Maritime in a win-or-go-home matchup.<\/p>\n

Here is where the rest of the teams stand as May begins:<\/p>\n

Adelphi<\/b>: Despite their 21-22-1 record, the Panthers have played their best ball in the division. They have four games remaining, including a crucial three-game series against New Haven who ended their season last year. They currently hold the fourth and final playoff spot in the Southwest Division of the NE-10 with a two-game lead over Assumption.<\/p>\n

Dowling<\/b>: The Golden Lions are 18-18-1 (12-8 in the ECC),\u00a0they will play today against Felician. They will conclude their regular season with a four-game set against Mercy prior to the ECC playoffs commencing.<\/p>\n

Farmingdale<\/b>: The Rams clinched the No. 1 season for the Skyline Conference with a 15-1 record. They will wait to play the winner of St. Joe’s vs. Maritime on Friday at home. They will host the playoffs.<\/p>\n

Stony Brook<\/b>: With their 9-12 conference record, the Seawolves are currently fifth in the six team America East. They still have ten games remaining and can potentially sneak into a playoff spot.<\/p>\n

Hofstra: <\/b>The Pride are in eighth in the ten-team Colonial Athletic Association Conference with an 8-10 record. They have 11 games remaining, including three-game series against conference foes William & Mary.<\/p>\n

C.W. Post<\/b>: They have fallen on some hard times, suffering a 5-15 April. They have a 6-14 conference record and will most likely be on the outside looking in during the playoffs.<\/p>\n

Old Westbury: <\/b>The Panthers finished the regular season with the No. 2 seed for the playoffs and have an overall record of 23-13. They will play the winner of Mount Saint Mary and Purchase on Friday at Farmingdale.<\/p>\n

NYIT<\/b>: They have a 5-11 conference record, and stand at 7-35 overall. They will play Army today at West Point.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
