After a disappointing step back on Tuesday with two loses to Rutgers University, the Stony Brook University softball team picked up the pieces and managed to pull out both games of a Thursday doubleheader...

Stony Brook softball needed just four and a half innings to put away Hartford on Sunday, which finished off a three-game sweep. Starting pitcher freshman Allison Cukrov pitched well again for the Seawolves, as she picked up her eighth victory of the season. She gave up just four hits and struck out four batters in five innings of work.

To a student athlete like Bernadette Tenuto, the improvements to many of the athletic facilities at Stony Brook are a welcomed addition to the campus environment. As a senior majoring in business management, Tenuto has played first base on the softball team before, during and after the renovations, giving her a close insight to the changes that have occurred among the chalk lines and bleachers.

The softball team dominated the Florida Gulf Coast Tournament this weekend, winning its sixth straight game in the process.
