Dragons Blaze Their Way Through Wild Card Tournament
Undefeated Saturday puts club in the MAW Playoffs

The Dragons, who entered the tournament as a #2 seed, defeated the 5th seeded Old Line Wiffle Club in the first round, then the Longballs out of Ridley Park to set up a matchup with the top-seeded New School Risers. The Risers then fell to the Goon Squad in the loser’s bracket final to set up the championship series.
The Dragons won Game 1 on a walk-off home run from Frankie Campanile.
The Dragons followed that up with another 1-0 win in the 2nd game to win the tournament with a perfect 5-0 record.
The Dragons will advance to September 17th’s MAW Playoffs, where they will be joined by the York Yaks, Stompers, ERL, Voodoo, and the regular season champions the Juggernauts.
