Plateau came up on the short end of the 5-1 score as Bill Cole (who would later be named the Tournament MVP was 3 for 3 with a HR). Plateau finished in third place with a 6-2 record.

ASA National – Jones Beach, NY – 4th Place 5-2 (Game Scores – Musicaro)
Musicaro was one of the favorites to win this event, especially playing in their own friendly confines of Jones Beach. They started out very strong out scoring their first 4 opponents by a score of 57-4. Duke King was pitching great and collected 2 shutouts behind the strong Musicaro defense. In the Semi-Final game, they had an 11-2 lead in the sixth inning and the announcers were already telling the two undefeated teams to report to the field for the Winner's Bracket.  Skip Hogan of Pittsburgh was there waiting. Musicaro was announced to be on their way. But, a strange thing happened. Gatliff Auto Sales, a multiple ASA National Champion did the unthinkable. they came back from a 11-2 deficit to win 12-11. Duke King and his team was in disbelief of what just transpired.  The team gathered themselves and proceeded to eliminate a strong Bill Elliott's team from Pittsburgh 13-1. They now had to face the 1962 ASA National Champion, East Side Sporting Goods of Detroit. The had to defeat Detroit, they defeat Gatliffs (who lost the winner's bracket game to Skip Hogan), and then beat undefeated Hogan AC twice.  They had the home town crowd going crazy, but lost the game 9-7.  They finished the tournament with a 5-2 record

Musicaro Foods, Massapequa-Long Island - beat Mousetrap, Rockville Centre-Long Island 17-8 in final
MVP - Jim Galloway, Musicaro Foods (9-14, .643, 4 HRs, 10 RBIs)
Note - Duke King, Musicaro's (4-0 Pitching)

NOTE- County Sports added former professional football player Bill Brown who was an absolute beast on the mound and

also averaged 2 hits and a HR a game for the Levittown squad. Add that to the already impressive power ot Ray Frisch and

Cliff White and this team seems unbeatable. But something happened on the way to the finals. They got caught in a Mousetrap

and finished up a disappointing 5th place. With Duke King pitching and Jim Galloway hitting the ball in orbit, Musicaro's

romped to their second straight NYC Metro Crown. Oscar Steadman and Lou Russo also came up big at the plate.

Empire County Sports was undefeated and waiting on the tea to emerge from the Losers Bracket. South Shore Outdoor had just eliminated Hicksvile Astros. South Shore was now playing the NY Nets in the loser's bracket final.  The Nets lodged a formal protest that County Sports had a former professional athlete (Bruce Cerone, who played semi-pro football for the Long Island Chiefs). The protest was upheld and South Shore Outdoor Stores was awarded the Regional Championship based on having the best record amongst the teams left.

NOTE - The tournament started in Hempstead and was halted due to rain with the Trenton Caps waiting to play the Red Door Diplomats in the losers bracket final. The winner would play undefeated County Sports.  The two New Jersey teams played their game in Ewing, NJ in which Trenton won 12-6 in the strength of two HRS from Bill Pollock. Trenton had already cinched 2nd place in the Regional and a berth to the National and did not want to drive to Long Island to play the final.  So Tournament Officials declared County Sports the Winner and Trenton Caps, the runner-up team.
