In Friday’s matchup versus Bryant, the Seawolves trailed by six going into the second half. Stony Brook put up a 44-31 deficit from there and lost 79-60. Tyler Stephenson-Moore led the team on 21 points with four rebounds. 

PICK: I’m going to stick with Sacred Heart. There’s really not a lot to like here, though. The Pioneers are sitting on a three-game losing streak and they haven’t been scoring well lately. Sacred Heart has posted 66 or fewer points in four straight games. That said, the Pioneers shouldn’t have too much trouble setting the pace here. Stony Brook has a couple of good scoring outings lately but they’ve routinely finished below 60 points this season.
