After a memorable 2025 season, the team is focused on continuing “The Viking Way”, playing quality baseball, the right way, every day. Coach Milano laid out the team’s goals clearly. Success this season is defined by four key areas: league titles, playoff runs, championshi...
Wantagh Claims Nassau Class A Title, Defeats Seaford 6-1 in Series Finale
by Tucker Terranova Wantagh takes home the title! They defeat Seaford, 6-1, in Game 3 of the Nassau A Finals to capture the County Championship🏆 They will face Sayville in the Class A Long Island Championship next Thursday at Middle Country Athletic Complex at 4:30 pm. pic.twitter.com/lZXM4KZnm4 — Axcess Baseball LI (@axcessbaseball) June 1, 2025 It’s a well-known fact that pitching wins championships. Wantagh, which lost in three games to Clarke in last year’s Nassau County Class A Championship Series, proved that again over the weekend. After Christian Danzilo twirled a complete game gem in game one of the best-of-three set, Saturday was Dom Cusumano’s turn – and he delivered. Bouncing back after surrendering a walk-off single in relief in game two that pushed the series to a decisive th...
GAME RECAP: Alt’s Single Forces Game Three, Lifts Seaford to Extra-Inning 3-2 Win Over Wantagh
by Tucker Terranova Final: Wantagh 2, Seaford 3 Dylan Alt forces a decisive game three with a walk-off single! pic.twitter.com/6CD8fQaaTp — Axcess Baseball LI (@axcessbaseball) May 30, 2025 “Don’t doubt the Vikings.” It’s a phrase Jordan Cassuto said has resonated with his Seaford squad all season. Five times this postseason, the sixth-seeded Vikings have faced elimination — and five times, they’ve lived to play another day. After dropping the first game of their three-game championship series to Wantagh, 6-1, Seaford once again found itself in a familiar spot: needing a win to keep its season alive. In a contest that stretched nine innings and nearly three hours, the Vikings outlasted Wantagh, 3-2, decided by a walk-off single from Dylan Alt. Alt was the conductor of the Vikings’ come-fr...
GAME RECAP: Danzilo’s Complete Game Lifts Wantagh to 6-1 Game One Victory
by Tucker Terranova Final: Seaford 1, Wantagh 6 Wantagh takes a 1-0 series lead in the Nassau County Class A Finals thanks to a complete game from Christian Danzilo. pic.twitter.com/67fxvkkRdp — Axcess Baseball LI (@axcessbaseball) May 29, 2025 Some players simply have a knack for playing their best when the lights are brightest. For Christian Danzilo, who earned a clutch save in game one of last year’s finals and got the start for top-seeded Wantagh in this year’s series opener, it’s beginning to look like this is the case. The senior southpaw committed to SUNY Oneonta allowed just one run, struck out three, and carried a no-hitter into the sixth inning on 98 pitches, delivering a complete game for the Warriors in a 6-1 victory over A-2 #3 Seaford. It was a performance that Wantagh head ...
GAME RECAP: Seaford Tops Plainedge 6-2 to Punch Ticket to Class A County Finals
by Tucker Terranova Final: Seaford 6, Plainedge 2 The Vikings knock out top-seeded Plainedge and advance to the County Finals for the first time since 2023! pic.twitter.com/pFW0mkhgMw — Axcess Baseball LI (@axcessbaseball) May 25, 2025 Getting no-hit in the opening game of a best-of-three semifinal series is far from ideal. But having been in the same situation during the quarterfinal round against Clarke, Seaford knew what it would take to pull off a comeback. The No. 3 seed bounced back the only way it knew how—shutting out top-seeded Plainedge in Game 2, then sealing the series with a 6-2 win in Saturday’s rubber match. The victory sends the Vikings to the Nassau Class A county finals for the first time since their 2023 title run. “We just want to keep playing with our seniors,” junior ...
Mike Milano’s Seaford Vikings Enter the 2025 season with 11 seniors
Special thanks to Metamorphosis Landscape Design for sponsoring this year’s series by Joe Bello Coach Mike Milano is preparing for his 22nd season at the helm of Seaford High School baseball. The Vikings bench boss is excited and ready for what is to come in the 2025 season. The Vikings went 15-8 during the 2024 season, making the playoffs but eventually falling to Mineola in the Class A quarterfinals. “We won 6 in a row to close out the season as the #3 seed in Class A Playoffs and took an experienced Mineola team to 3 games where they pitched out of a bases loaded, one out jam to win the quarterfinals series.” Milano said. “With one senior in 2024, we won the series vs Island Trees & North Shore and swept CSH & LV. Only lost 2 out of 3 to Class A Champion Clarke and 2 of th...
Jason Berthel’s Grand Slam Is the Difference In Seaford’s Win over CSH
by Max Edelman It’s a GRAND SLAM for Jason Berthel! He puts the Vikings back on top. Seaford leads 5-3 in the bottom of the fourth. pic.twitter.com/GZkbdXaa3T — Axcess Baseball LI (@axcessbaseball) April 11, 2024 The Seaford Vikings used a Jason Berthel grand slam to fuel them to a 5-3 victory over the Cold Spring Harbor Seahawks. Down 2-1 in the bottom of the fourth inning, Berthel sent a towering fly ball over the left-center field fence to give his Vikings a 5-3 lead, a lead they would never relinquish en route to a home victory. The Vikings were the team to strike first, as after Dylan Alt doubled to lead off the game, and eventually scored on a sacrifice fly hit by Luke Walsh. Walsh had a solid day at the plate, going two for three with a stolen base to go along with the sacrifice fl...
Seaford Enters 2024 as Reigning Nassau Class B Champs and With Brand New Turf Field
Here’s the final out for Seaford as they captured the first County Championship in program history 🏆 pic.twitter.com/IY6F0pRDCj — Axcess Baseball LI (@axcessbaseball) May 27, 2023 Seaford captured the first County Championship in program history in 2023 as they defeated Wheatley without allowing a run. It was a truly special year for Michael Milano‘s club, who dropped down from Class A, and are right back up there this year. They finished with a record of 22-2, losing to Wheatley in a regular season game and Babylon in the Class B Long Island Championship at St. Joseph’s University in a game that they led 5-2. Coach Milano, who has been at the helm since 2004, spoke to Axcess Baseball about their incredible season. “When you have a group like that, there is a whole new l...
Babylon Pulls Off Dramatic 9th Inning Comeback to Stun Seaford and Capture Class B LIC
A stunning comeback by Babylon as they overcame a 5-2 deficit in the Class B Long Island Championship with the winning run coming in on a walk-off walk Babylon 6, Seaford 5 pic.twitter.com/dN02nDZ6RG — Axcess Baseball LI (@axcessbaseball) June 1, 2023 In a season of magic for Babylon, it makes sense that something so improbable would happen in the Class B Championship. Two teams with just 1 loss on the season squared off at St. Joseph’s University, and there was a number of twists & turns in this one. Ultimately, the Babylon Panthers trailed 5-2 entering the bottom of the 9th, and were also down to their last strike trailing 5-3 with Daniel Madsen, whose been at the center of all their magic this season. Madsen lined an 0-2 pitch to center field against Adelphi-commit Billy Kind,...
GAME RECAP: Sean Costello Fires 4-Hit Shutout in Game 1 of Nassau Class B County Finals
Bottom 4: Stephen Ierides bloops an RBI single and it’s 2-0 Seaford pic.twitter.com/0b2PKApwtx — Axcess Baseball LI (@axcessbaseball) May 25, 2023 Although it’s important to have a roster with depth, the most important thing is having star players that perform like stars in big games. Seaford, who entered the Nassau Class B playoffs, as the No. 1 seed thanks to a 1-loss regular season, have continued to dominate their competition and now are on the brink of a County Championship for the first time in program history. They had been a Class A school up until last year which certainly made the path more difficult. Led by two of the top pitchers in Nassau County this year and a relentless top of the order, the Vikings cruised to a 6-0 victory over No. 5 Wheatley, who were the only team t...
Ken Kortright State Farm Game of the Week: Seaford Overcomes 3-1 Deficit in 7th Inning to Remain Undefeated
Trailing 3-1 in the 7th inning, Seaford mounted a comeback with the go-ahead hit coming on an RBI single by TJ Harrington. Seaford won 6-4 to improve to 13-0 on the season to defeat previously undefeated Mepham @GCsports pic.twitter.com/rtXfMQYhde — Axcess Baseball LI (@axcessbaseball) April 29, 2023 This one might’ve been a non-league game but that doesn’t make a difference to the players. Make no mistake, pursuing a perfect season still matters and both Seaford and Mepham entered with unblemished records as the calendar approaches May. We covered Mepham’s win on Tuesday over MacArthur and they were able to finish the sweep. Seaford swept Locust Valley – including a perfect game by senior RHP Billy Kind, so both teams approached Friday’s non-league game which...
Led By Conference A4 Pitcher of the Year, Seaford Ready to Return to Postseason
by Brian Honka Uncommitted RHP Sean Costello (Seaford 2023) up to 88 MPH. Was named All-County and Conference Pitcher of the Year pic.twitter.com/BKLf1rlZw2 — Axcess Baseball LI (@axcessbaseball) June 24, 2022 Seaford is looking to improve upon a season that featured a 12-10-1 record and 2 playoff wins over Garden City and Island Trees giving them a trip to the quarterfinal. Unfortunately, the season didn’t end the way they hoped as they lost to the 3rd seed MacArthur Generals. Coach Milano said that last year was something to be extremely proud of coming out of arguably one of the toughest leagues in Class A. The team lost All-Conference SS Evan Block (SUNY Maritime), the team will also need to replace battery mates RHP Jack Kellner (SUNY Maritime) and C Joe Bello (Baruch) who received Al...
