2019 Champs: Team '06-'11

​

It was a hard fought championship for Kenny Doonan's team.  Unlike 2017 when this team ran through the league registering the first perfect season, injuries slowed the two-time champions in 2019.  The 2013 champions, Glory Days, captained by Greg Keating and led by MVP-caliber play of Nick Delfico, came up just short in this rematch of  the 2016 Championship game.

2017 Champs: Team '06-'11

​

Kenny Doonan's team ran through the league registering the first perfect season. The defending champs were tested in the Finals by Mickey Schneider's team made up of Iona men from the early 90's. Michael Kiers continued his MVP-worthy performance, but the '06-'12 team proved to be too much in the end.

2016 Champs: Team '06-'11

​

Mira Fain's team took a year off from the finals but for the fourth year in a row Greg Keating's Glory Days Team contended for the league championship.  League newcomers captained by Sho Obemeata and Kenny Doonan proved too much in a hard-fought Final.  Despite an early lead and sharp shooting by Glory Days in the first half, the younger team mounted a comeback and prevailed.
