After going 2-0 in their non-league schedule the Blue Dragons baseball team opened up its league season, with a 14-2 victory over Valley Stream South. Josh Flinn was Division's winning pitcher going six innings, and allowing only two hits while striking out 11 batters, and allowing no runs.

The Blue Dragon's offense was led by Scott Porter, a junior first baseman who had three hits and two home runs. Scott finished the day with three RBIs and three runs scored. Tom Messina has a bases loaded double for three RBIs while another junior Ray Montoro, added two hits and two RBIs. Chris Castellano and Shawn Sewith both added two hits. Chris also threw out the only runner attempting to steal by at least 10 feet, as he continued to excel defensively.

Junior Jesse Darcy pitched a very strong game scattering four hits while striking out 12 batters. Big hits for Division were by juniors Ray Montoro and Scott Porter as well as sophomore Brian Chenicek. The real offensive key to the victory was the base running of Jeff Tamamez, Keith Feldman and Brian Chenicek.
