West Islip Baseball Team Wins Another County Title
West Islip High School's boys baseball team won the county championship on May 28.
From West Islip Schools: Led by a gritty performance by star pitcher Mike LaDonna, West Islip High School’s varsity boys baseball team won the Suffolk County Class AA championship on May 28 with an exciting 3-1 victory over host Eastport-South Manor. It was the third county title since 2014 for the Lions and coach Shawn Rush, and the win pushed West Islip’s winning streak – the longest on Long Island at that time – to 21 games.
The team moved on to compete in the Long Island championship game at SUNY Old Westbury on June 2, losing 7-1 to defending champions Massapequa, closing the books on another terrific Lions baseball season.
