Massapequa captures the Class AAA Long Island Championship with a 7-0 victory over Connetquot ! 🏆 They advance to the NYS Semifinals next weekend in Binghamton against the winner of Pine Bush-Ketchum pic.twitter.com/JlcUKy76D6 — Axcess Baseball LI (@axcessbaseball) June 8, 2025 After a one-year hiatus, Massapequa (19-8) regained their status as the top public school on Long Island. In what was a rematch of 2019, the Chiefs scored early and often as they cruised to a 7-0 victory over Suffolk Class AAA Champion Connetquot , who entered with wins in 5 straight elimination games.

GAME RECAP: Farmingdale Walks Off on Balk, Takes Game One Against Massapequa 1-0
by Tucker Terranova Final: Massapequa 0, Farmingdale 1 A walk-off balk gives Farmingdale the win and a game one series lead. pic.twitter.com/bqgfHqQn5f — Axcess Baseball LI (@axcessbaseball) May 30, 2025 It’s felt like Massapequa and Farmingdale have been on a collision course all season. Massapequa – the longtime powerhouse with six straight county titles before last year – and Farmingdale – the team that took the title in 2024 – have been two of the best in what is arguably Nassau’s toughest public school league this spring. With a combined 27-5-1 record in conference play, Thursday’s showdown delivered on what was billed as a clash of titans. Thursday’s encore offered an old-fashioned pitcher’s duel as Massapequa left-hander Thomas Harding and Farmingdale right-hander Colin Horowitz exc...
GAME RECAP: Harding Shines, Massapequa Takes Down Syosset 9-1
by Tucker Terranova Final: Massapequa 9, Syosset 1 A big afternoon from Thomas Harding leads the Chiefs to their eighth consecutive conference victory. pic.twitter.com/q8KByYALM6 — Axcess Baseball LI (@axcessbaseball) May 12, 2025 No team on Long Island may be more determined to reclaim a county championship than the Massapequa Chiefs. “We’re very hungry, especially after how last season ended,” said St. John’s-commit Thomas Harding in a post game interview. “We’ve been playing harder than ever.” After their six-year reign atop Nassau County was ended by Port Washington in 2024, the Chiefs know exactly what it takes to return to the top: dominant pitching, timely hitting, and catching fire at the right moment. The 2025 version of the Chiefs checked all those boxes Monday night. Harding spu...
GAME RECAP: Kyle Scheurer Throws Out Runner at Plate to Secure 2-1 Win
by Max Edelman FINAL: Oceanside 2 – Massapequa 1 An unbelievable throw by center fielder Kyle Scheurer throws out what would’ve been the tying run for the Chiefs. Pitcher Dylan Beirne pitches all seven innings, allowing only one run as the Sailors take the series over Massapequa pic.twitter.com/B2Vxh8I3qd — Axcess Baseball LI (@axcessbaseball) April 14, 2025 In rare instances, games are remembered for one play, and on a rare Monday morning showdown between the Massapequa Chiefs and the Oceanside Sailors, the game will be remembered for how it ended. Trailing 2-1 with two runners on and two outs in the top of the seventh, Chiefs pinch hitter Ryan Moore delivered what most believed to be the game tying base hit. However, a miraculous throw by Sailors center fielder Kyle Scheurer, foll...
