The 2007 America East Conference baseball tournament took place from May 24 through 26 at Farmingdale State Baseball Stadium in Farmingdale, New York. The top four regular season finishers of the league's seven teams qualified for the double-elimination tournament. In the championship game, third-seeded Albany defeated first-seeded Binghamton, 1-0, to win its first tournament championship. As a result, Albany received the America East's automatic bid to the 2007 NCAA tournament, the program's first.[1][2][3]
