While the Stony Brook football team prepares for their opening game on Thursday, many of the team’s former players have been attempting to find stable ground in the world of professional football.
The Seawolves' first year in the CAA did not go as smoothly as many expected. The Seawolves will need more consistency out of their special teams unit if they are going to take a step forward in 2014.
The Stony Brook football team had already been in this scenario multiple times this season. After playing a difficult CAA opponent tough for the majority of the game, the Seawolves were on the verge of another fourth-quarter collapse.
The Stony Brook football team put together a hard-fought second half against CAA powerhouse Maine on Saturday, but in the end, they could not come away with a season-saving victory. The Seawolves (3-5, 1-4 in CAA) lost by the score of 19-14, and were eliminated from FCS playoff contention.
Coming off of a tough defeat against the University of New Hampshire on family weekend, the Seawolves get no reprieve in their upcoming matchup against the University of Maine Black Bears.
After a dramatic, energy-driven win at Homecoming, the Stony Brook Seawolves look to ride the momentum as they leave the comfort of Kenneth P. LaValle Stadium to face off with the 1-4 Colgate Raiders in Hamilton, New York.
