2022 Playoff Schedule and Tournament Results

The Catholic High School Athletic Association baseball playoffs begin Wednesday with seeding games involving three Westchester County teams, each with a good shot at contending for the city championship. Of course, getting there will be a long and challenging road, and below is an overview of what it takes to get there.

The CHSAA will first host seeding round matches – some to determine an archdiocesan champion, plus five best-of-three series as tournament qualifiers – and then play an intersectional double-elimination tournament to crown a city champion.

Nine of the 12 teams in the city championship tournament will be from the Archdiocese, with the other three from the Diocese of Brooklyn-Queens, which will have a separate bracket to determine these seeds.

St. Joseph by-the-Sea of ​​Staten Island is the city’s defending champion. Kennedy finished last season as runner-up.
