This past Saturday the Seawolves hockey team and Stony Brook Ice Girls participated in The League of Yes, Long Island’s baseball game at Bald Hill Park in Farmingville, NY. The League of Yes Long Island, was created in 2010 by Executive Director and Founder, Kristine Fitzpatrick. This foundation is dedicated to providing children with special needs the opportunity to play baseball. The backbone of this program is the BUDDY system; which stands for, Because Unbelievable Dedication Deserves YOU! The Buddies help the players hit the ball and navigate around the bases. While in the outfield, they play and socialize with the players and keep them safe from baseballs. The Stony Brook Seawolves hockey team had a phenomenal time participating as BUDDIES for the day, we would like to thank The League of Yes Long Island for allowing us to be a part of this special day. The Seawolves look forward to next year’s big game with their friends at The League of Yes Long Island!
Don’t forget, Stony Brook’s home opener for the 2018-2019 season will be Saturday night October 6th at 8:30pm and Sunday night at 3:30pm against the University of William Paterson. Saturday night the Seawolves will be raising money for the Canine Companion foundation and Sunday afternoon’s game, the Seawolves will be taking donations for the League of YES. All Stony Brook students who present their Stony Brook ID will get in the game for free. Come down and cheer on your Seawolves as they start their road towards a national championship and to support the fundraisers!
All home games are played at the Rinx in Hauppauge, NY 660 Terry Road.
