Evan Giordano’s clutch hit completed two monumental comebacks in one swing, as the Stony Brook baseball team captured the 2022 America East regular season title.
The Seawolves traveled down to Newark, New Jersey and took two out of three games from NJIT. A couple of good pitching performances along with some hot hitting helped Stony Brook win their sixth conference series of the year.
The Seawolves continued their up-and-down season with a 9-2 loss on April 27 to the Stags. The game marked head coach Matt Senk’s 1500th career game coached with Stony Brook, making him one of 15 active coaches in the NCAA to reach that milestone.
“We were unselfish today,” head coach Anthony Gilardi said. “If you look at the box score a lot of guys got involved. Just like our last game against Dartmouth, the more guys we have on the scoresheet the better offense we are playing.”
After 21 years, the Seawolves’ America East chapter was officially finished with an 87-68 victory over the NJIT Highlanders. After a flurry of off-court controversy and difficulties, it brings the season to an end.
Typically an offensive-driven team, the Stony Brook men’s basketball team locked down shooters to send its senior class off with a 66-50 win over the Albany Great Danes on Saturday, Feb. 26.
The Seawolves sought vengeance for numerous things — the postseason ban, an uncharacteristic defeat earlier in the season — and left no questions about their talent.
A game-winning 3-pointer with two seconds left from forward Miles Coleman sent the Seawolves to their second straight defeat, 65-62 against the NJIT Highlanders on Saturday, Feb. 5.
After the news broke about the Stony Brook women’s basketball team’s ban from America East postseason play because of the school’s decision to move to the CAA next season, the Seawolves came out cold despite playing an opponent with a poor record.
