2025 World Championship Series - Stade Maples (90-72) vs. Brooklyn Knights (101-61)
Game 1: Brooklyn 7, Stade 0
Game 2: Brooklyn 4, Stade 1
Game 3: Stade 6, Brooklyn 4
Game 4: Brooklyn 8, Stade 0
Game 5: Stade 4, Brooklyn 3
Game 6: Stade 3, Brooklyn 2
Game 7: Stade 2, Brooklyn 1
Series MVP: C Lorenzo Torres (Stade Maples)
For the second straight season, the underdog Stade Maples emerged as NALB World Champions. They faced the same formidable opponents as last year—the St. James Crusaders and the Brooklyn Knights. They dispatched the Crusaders, a team that won 95 games in the regular season, in a five game League Championship Series. In the World Championship Series, they needed a full seven games to defeat NALB's top team, the Brooklyn Knights. It was a particularly impressive performance considering the Maples lost the first two games and trailed 3-1 after four games. They won the final three games by a single run, however, to take the title once again. The Stade Maples are building quite a dynasty, having won the championship three times in the last four seasons.
