Stony Brook’s Player of the game went to stand out rookie forward Matt Crockett for his stellar defensive play, blocking six shots and scoring his first goal of the year to tie the game.
The second game Stony Brook started out slow but would pour on the pressure and never looked back as they toppled the Orangemen 9-1. Leading the scoring for the Seawolves was Senior forward Tyler Underhill with a hat-trick and Assistant Captain Andrew Cetola with three assists.
