championship game

This would have been right at home in playgrounds from
Farmingdale to Farmingville.
For 40 minutes, at the Entertainment and Sports Arena in
Washington on Monday night, Stony Brook and Hofstra were engaged
in a Long Island street fight. The Seawolves and Pride traded
body blows, heavy and hard. Both sides giving as good as they
got.
And in the end, it was Stony Brook, in its second year as a CAA
member school, landing one more punch.
The seventh-seeded Seawolves outlasted third-seed Hofstra,
63-59, in the CAA men’s basketball semifinals. As a result,
Stony Brook will meet top-seeded Charleston in Tuesday’s
championship game. The Cougars topped fifth-seed Towson, 61-56,
in the day’s first semifinal game.
Tyler Stephenson-Moore led Stony Brook (20-14) with 23 points.
Chris Maidoh added 13. Aaron Clarke chipped in with 12.
Tyler Thomas led Hofstra (20-13) with 32 points, nine rebounds
and six assists. Jaquan Carlos had 13 points and six assists.
Entering the game, Hofstra was 28-6 against Stony Brook
all-time, including four straight wins and nine wins in the
previous 10 matchups. The teams played twice in the regular
season, with Hofstra winning both games. The Pride took an 80-74
decision at Island Federal Credit Union Arena on Jan. 22. On
Feb. 1, at the Mack Sports and Entertainment Complex, Tyler
Thomas’ baseline 17-foot jumper with four-tenths of a second
remaining allowed Hofstra to escape with a 72-71 win.
Thirty-nine days and 256 miles later, Hofstra and Stony Brook
picked up right where they left off.
At halftime, Stony Brook led 32-30. Stephenson-Moore scored 14
points and shot 4-for-9 from the field, including 3-for-6 from
beyond the arc, to spark the Seawolves.
The gritty nature of the game continued in the second half.
Stony Brook shot 2-for-7 from the field in the first 6 1/2
minutes, which was slightly better than Hofstra’s 2-for-9 clip.
And it seemed as if whistles were blown on every possession.
Darlinstone Dubar’s three from beyond the arc gave Hofstra its
first lead since midway through the first half, 44-41. Clarke
came right back and knock down a three of his own to tie the
game.
Thomas converted a layup to put Hofstra ahead 46-44 with 10:54
remaining.
Neither team scored for the next four minutes until Dean Noll
knocked down two free throws to knot the game at 46.
The Pride went ahead 49-46 on Silas Sunday’s free throw and
Carlos’ layup but Stephenson-Moore brought the Seawolves to
within one with two free throws.
After Thomas’ floater allowed Hofstra to stretch the lead back
up to three, Stephenson-Moore tied the game 51-51 with a three
in front of the Seawolves’ bench.
Both teams did not score over a span of two minutes and five
seconds until Maidoh converted a spinning layup. On the next
possession, Maidoh blocked Thomas’ layup attempt, which led to
Stephenson-Moore’s layup on the other end that extended the
Seawolves’ lead to 55-51 with 1:57 left.
Stony Brook pushed the advantage to 58-51 after Noll knocked
down a three with 57 seconds left. Clarke made 3 of 4 free
throws to stretch the Seawolves’ lead to 61-51.
In the final half minute, Thomas drilled a three and made two
free throws to cut the deficit to 61-56, but Clarke and Keenan
Fitzmorris knocked down free throws to put the game out of
reach.

i saw sunday put a high screen on that i thought was a moving
pick. next time, called for it. not sure how much trouble he
caused, shooting 0/1 with 3 boards.
anyway- a good pregame summary in one post:
[quote]- They have OT wins over both Drexel and UNCW
- Beat Delaware by 23 last week
- Took Towson to OT on the road
- Had a 15 pt 1st half lead on Charleston
- And of course the 2 very close games vs us[/quote]
and a bad one after the loss:
[quote]The team had a great year, but Stony Brook sucks, and
they were playing their 3rd game in 3 nights. There were no
adjustments from us in the 2nd half. But credit to them, they
outplayed and outcoached us by a wide margin tonight.
