A Night of Momentum
The Massapequa baseball squad entered the state tournament with a season marked by steady improvement and a fierce desire to prove themselves on the big stage. Their Class AAA NYSPHSAA semifinal was set for June 12, 2026 at Union-Endicott High School, a venue that would soon witness a cascade of memorable plays.
In the opening frame, Chris Sultana stepped up to the plate and delivered a decisive RBI double to right field, driving in a run that put Massapequa ahead early and set the tone for the contest.
Moments later, Brady Love celebrated with his teammates after crossing home plate, the excitement evident in his grin as the crowd roared in support of the home side.
On the mound, Jack Mulligan showed poise beyond his years, navigating the first inning against Monroe-Woodbury with a mix of fastballs and off‑speed pitches that kept the opposition off balance.
The combined effort of the players, including contributions from Caiden Erker, Antony Carello, and Michael Monda, underscored the depth of the roster, while the team’s chemistry hinted at a promising future in the tournament.
Looking Ahead
As the game progressed, the Massapequa faithful remained hopeful that the early momentum would carry them through to the championship bracket, a prospect that seemed within reach given the energy displayed on the field.
