The Emperors

The Latin Dukes

The Bronx Knights

AECOM Boys

Each team is unique, with its own story to tell. The Emperors, perhaps the most well known NY stickball team, were defeated by the Latin Dukes, a league rival. The Bronx Knights played three great games, but were edged out in the finals by this year's borough champs, the Latinos. And the surprise of the day was the competitive play of the AECOM Boys (Albert Einstein College of Medicine) who were playing for the first time.
