From BR Bullpen

The 1998 Northeast Conference baseball tournament was held in Jersey City, NJ. The tournament was originally scheduled to be a double-elimination tournament at Waterfront Park. Rain forced the tournament to be moved and to be a single elimination format. #2 Monmouth University defeated #1 St. Francis College for the title. Joe McCullough of Monmouth was named MVP.
