Winners Bracket Final Recap
July 27, 2025 | 
Double Elimination Tournament
#2 Northern Lights def. #4 EELS — 7–1
The Northern Lights are headed to the Championship Round after a dominant all-around performance in the Winners Bracket Final! Backed by an early offensive outburst and an elite outing from their ace, they now stand one win away from the tournament title.
PLAYER OF THE GAME: Brian Herman
Herman was untouchable on the mound:
7.0 IP | 1 H | 0 R | 14 K | 0 BB
He set the tone early and never let up — mixing command, velocity, and poise to shut down the EELS offense and keep the Lights firmly in control.
Team Highlights
Scored 7 runs in the first 3 innings 10 hits, 6 players with RBIs
Error-free defense
Key offensive sparks from Kreitzer, Murray, and B. Licursi
The EELS, after a solid tournament start, now move to the Losers Bracket Final. Their path to the title remains, but it’s steep — they’ll need to win the bracket final and then beat the undefeated Northern Lights twice to capture the crown.
The Lights? They’re locked in and just one win from the CMBL Title.
