More untimely errors plagued the Stony Brook women’s volleyball team in its trip to Pennsylvania. The Seawolves competed in the Saint Francis Tournament in Pennsylvania this past weekend and once again lost two out of three matches to stay under .500.
Though it played its best series of the year, the Stony Brook baseball team was swept for a third-straight week to open the 2023 season. The Seawolves (0-9) are off to their worst start in exactly 10 years. After being swept in three games by the No. 13 University of North Carolina (UNC) Tar Heels, Stony Brook has lost each of its first nine games.
After having their 2021 season spoiled by rain, the Seawolves had their 2022 season begin with a ban from the postseason tournament.

Now in the Colonial Athletic Association (CAA), Stony Brook has a chance to get back to the NCAA tournament, but a much tougher route to get there.
