Waterloo, IA - With Thursday's 7-2 win over the Battle Creek Bombers, the Waterloo Bucks tied the Northwoods League record for wins in a season. Waterloo's 50th win ties the mark originally set by the Rochester Honkers in 2006. The Bucks (50-17) will look to add to that win total and set a new NWL record in their final three games this season, including home games on Friday and Saturday.

With both half titles and the best overall Northwoods League record (and therefore home field advantage throughout the playoffs) in the bag, the Bucks' home playoff schedule has been set. Regardless of their opponent, the schedule for the North Divisional Playoffs is as follows:

Game One - Monday, August 12 - at North Division Team with Second-Best Overall Record - Time TBA

Game Two - Tuesday, August 13 - at Riverfront Stadium, Waterloo - 6:35 pm

Game Three ( if necessary) - Wednesday, August 14 - at Riverfront Stadium, Waterloo - 6:35 pm

If the Bucks win the North Divisional Playoffs, they will advance to the Summer Collegiate World Series where the NWL Champion will be crowned. The schedule for that series, regardless of their opponent, is as follows:

Game One - Thursday, August 15 - at South Division Champion - Time TBA

Game Two - Friday, August 16 - at Riverfront Stadium, Waterloo - 7:05 pm

Game Three (if necessary) - Saturday, August 17 - at Riverfront Stadium, Waterloo - 7:05 pm
