Miguel Maysonet picked up 83 yards in the final performance of his collegiate career. "You have to give Montana State a lot of credit," coach Chuck Priore said. "A couple of miscues in the red zone probably would have changed the scoreboard in our direction.  But we fought and I was proud of our team's effort."

Women's Hoops Wins Two Straight but Falls to Youngstown State. Stony Brook was undone by 13 three-pointers by Youngstown State in a 76-43 loss on Friday. Jessica Previlon had 13 points and 6 rebounds for the Seawolves (3-3), winners of two straight during a road trip in which they went 2-2. "We didn't start well in either half and it cost us tonight," coach Beth O'Boyle said. "Early on, we were sloppy with the ball and they took advantage. Offensively, we didn't execute well and at the defensive end, we didn't get enough stops. We have to put this effort behind us and learn from it going forward."
