🏆⚾ THAT’S A WRAP ON THE 2026 NEW YORK STATE AMERICAN LEGION BASEBALL SEASON ⚾🏆

The 2026 New York State American Legion Baseball season was officially brought to an end yesterday when our Senior and Junior State Champions finished their campaigns in the respective Regional Tournaments.

The American Legion Baseball season in New York was nothing short of remarkable.

🇺🇸 2026 NYS SEASON RECAP

⚾ 6 Active Districts
⚾ 50+ Teams Across New York State

🏆 Senior State Champion
Kingston/Saugerties Posts 150/72

🏆 Junior State Champion
Liquid Prime — Hiscock-Fishbaugh American Legion Post 788

🏆 Prep State Champion
Utica Post 229

Hundreds of players, coaches, families, Legionnaires, volunteers and communities all contributed to making the 2026 season possible, from the very first game of the regular season through to the district tournaments, state championships and regional competition.

But we’re not stopping here.

Talk regarding the 2027 season has already started – and further teams are considering joining.

Our aim extends beyond adding teams; we would like to strengthen the existing districts, rekindle baseball in areas of the state where Legion Baseball has disappeared, expand opportunities for Junior and Prep players, and establish a sustainable statewide program for future generations of New York ballplayers.

Would you like to be involved in 2027?

If you are a coach looking for a home for your team, if your American Legion Post would like to sponsor baseball, or if you are interested in helping to start or develop American Legion Baseball in your district, then get in touch with us.

Let’s build on 2026.

More teams, more districts, and more opportunities—leading to a stronger New York State American Legion Baseball program. 🇺🇸⚾

In 2027, the work will now begin. Learn more at https://www.nylegionbaseball.com/

🏆⚾ AN OUTSTANDING RUN FOR OUR NEW YORK STATE JUNIOR CHAMPIONS ⚾🏆

The regional journey has come to an end for Liquid Prime, representing Hiscock-Fishbaugh American Legion Post 788.

After opening regional play with an impressive 9-0 victory over Connecticut State Champion Tanguay-Magill Post #80, Liquid Prime battled the Massachusetts State Champion, Franklin – Edward L. Grant Post #75, in a hard-fought game.

FINAL
Massachusetts — 2
Liquid Prime (NY) — 1

With the Junior Regional Tournament being single elimination, today’s result concludes Liquid Prime’s incredible 2026 postseason run.

From capturing the 2026 Department of New York Junior Division State Championship to representing New York on the regional stage, these players and coaches gave our state plenty to be proud of.

Congratulations to Liquid Prime and Hiscock-Fishbaugh American Legion Post 788 on an outstanding championship season and for representing New York American Legion Baseball with pride throughout the postseason. 🇺🇸⚾

2026 NEW YORK STATE JUNIOR CHAMPIONS. 🏆

⚾ KINGSTON/SAUGERTIES’ 2026 RUN COMES TO AN END ⚾

The 2026 New York State Senior American Legion Baseball Champions, Kingston/Saugerties, saw their regional run come to a close today after a hard-fought battle with Pittston (PA) Post 437.

FINAL
Pennsylvania — 4
New York — 3

Kingston/Saugerties battled until the final out. After falling behind 3-2 in the sixth, New York entered the bottom of the seventh trailing 4-2 and pushed another run across, but the comeback fell just short.

They finished with 9 runs and came down to the very end.

While their regional journey ends today, what this team accomplished in 2026 does not.
