They and the Campbell Fighting Camels will face off in a Coastal Athletic battle at 7:00 p.m. ET at Stony Brook Arena. The Seawolves have now lost seven straight, leaving the team hunting for their first win since December 21.
Stony Brook is headed into this one after the oddsmakers set last week's over/under low at 131.5, but even that wound up being too high. They fell to Towson 53-49. The match marked the Seawolves' lowest-scoring game so far this season.
Stony Brook's defeat shouldn't obscure the performances of Jared Frey, who scored 16 points, and Joe Octave, who earned 16 points in addition to six rebounds. Frey had some trouble finding his footing against Delaware on Thursday, so this was a step in the right direction.
Perhaps unsurprisingly given the score, Stony Brook struggled to work together and finished the game with only five assists. That's the fewest assists they've posted since back in January of 2024.
Meanwhile, Campbell posted their biggest victory since December 12, 2024 on Saturday. They blew past Monmouth 81-58. The oddsmakers were on the Fighting Camels' side, but they didn't give the team enough credit as the margin was unexpectedly wide.
