1995 North Atlantic Conference baseball tournament
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The 1995 North Atlantic Conference baseball tournament was held at Frawley Stadium in Wilmington, Delaware. The top six regular season finishers of the league's nine teams qualified for the double-elimination tournament. In the championship game, first-seeded Delaware defeated fifth-seeded Drexel, 12-2, to win its first tournament championship. As a result, Delaware received the North Atlantic's automatic bid to the 1995 NCAA tournament play-in round.[1][2]
