14. STONY BROOK
2024 record: 18-3 (8-0 CAA)
Last seen: Not having enough to beat Syracuse for the second
time since March 5 in the second round of the NCAA tournament.
Notable departures: Ellie Masera, M; Kailyn Hart, A; Alex Finn,
A; Charlotte Verhulst, M; Morgan Mitchell, A; Jaden Hampel, M;
Clare Levy, D; Erin MacQuarrie, M; Rachel Rosenberg, D; McKenzie
Mitchell, D; Emily Manning, G; Aaliyah Jones, G
Notable additions: Charlotte Wilmoth, A; Julia Fusco, M; Hailey
Huebner, M; Ava Mark, D; Braeden Siverson, M
Initial forecast: Joe Spallina’s Stony Brook teams have almost
always had the ability to retool on the fly. Lose one
program-defining star, more or less replace that star with
another up-and-coming one. But with the graduation of Tewaaraton
Award finalist Ellie Masera, the Seawolves don’t appear to have
their next big thing waiting in the wings.
In fact, Stony Brook loses its top six scorers, a problem that
obviously extends beyond the graduation of Masera. It also loses
Clare Levy, a defensive stalwart, on the other side of the
field. Oh, and both goalies who played a majority of the minutes
are gone, too.
That makes Stony Brook a little bit of an unknown, though
Spallina’s teams have always reveled in that concept. Perhaps
Courtney Maclay (14 G, 3 A) and Alexandra Fusco (11 G, 5 A) can
be the Seawolves’ next offensive duo, or maybe Isabella
Caporuscio (9 G, 3 A) steps up after drawing seven starts a year
ago. The addition of Charlotte Wilmoth from UMass at least gives
the Seawolves a steady presence on the attack. Defensively,
Avery Hines (45 GB, 66 CT) will be the focal point along with
Jordan Forte (14 GB), but there are other spots up for grabs.
It would not be surprising for Stony Brook to take some time to
find its footing before rounding into typical Seawolves form by
the midway point of 2025.

No “big time” top 10 matchups on the schedule seems like a
calculated decision by the program. They lost ALOT of talent to
graduation, and need to establish an identity with a lot of
unproven talent on the roster. Schedule won’t matter much cuz a
conference title is all that matters in terms of making the post
season. I Hope Spallina can turn a few of these unproven
players into stars quickly.

NCAA Women's Lacrosse Preview: A New Era for No. 14 Stony Brook
HTML https://www.usalacrosse.com/magazine/college/women/ncaa-womens-lacrosse-preview-new-era-no-14-stony-brook
[quote]
2024 record: 18-3 (8-0 CAA)
Head Coach: Joe Spallina
Assistants: Sydney Pirreca, Charlotte Verhulst, Clare Levy
Joe Spallina boasts a typical Long Island bravado, and his
made-for-TV-news soundbites can come off as hyperbolic,
especially in writing. But he’s not exaggerating when he says
that 2025 is the “next era” for Stony Brook.
More than a dozen players returned to Stony Brook for a fifth
year in 2024, and they’re gone. That includes Ellie Masera, the
program’s second-ever Tewaaraton Award finalist and leader in
goals (77), points (177) and draws (145).
In fact, the Seawolves lose all six of their leading scorers.
All-American defender Clare Levy returns … as a coach, and
starting goalie Emily Manning and primary backup Aayliah Jones
are also gone. But graduations are a common theme across
Division I entering 2025.
“It’s similar to when Kyle [Ohlmiller] and [Courtney] Murphy
graduated, and everybody thought we were going to be done,”
Spallina said. “Nobody knew about how great Ally Kennedy was
going to be.”
Spallina rinsed, washed and repeated — and was also right — with
Masera. So, who’s next?
TOP RETURNERS
Courtney Maclay, A, Sr. (14G, 3A)
Avery Hines, D., Sr. (66CT, 44GB)
Jordan Forte, D, Sr. (14GB, 3CT)
“I'm sure — much like Northwestern would that they're not going
replace Izzy Scane with one player — we’re not going to replace
Ellie Masera with one player,” Spallina said. “We've become a
little bit more by committee and system based.”
KEY ADDITIONS
Charlotte Wilmoth, A, Gr. (55G, 20AA, 13GB, 10CT at UMass)
Julia Fusco, M, Fr. (Bayport-Blue Point High School, N.Y.)
Ava Yancey, G, Fr. (Strath Haven High School, Pa.)
Julia Fusco joins sister, Alexandra, in the midfield, and
Spallina says she has a similar blue-collar style. And Ava
Yancey is neck and neck with junior Francesca Viteritti in a
four-goalie race for the starting nod along with sophomores
Hannah Hudson and Natalia Altebrando. Neither returning
netminder played in more than five games last year.
X-FACTOR
Casey Colbert, A, Sr.
Spallina gave two X-factors — Maclay was the other, but we
already covered her. Colbert has risen the depth chart and is a
prime candidate to occupy the starting spot at X. Colbert saw
time in six games as a junior and 13 games as a sophomore after
not playing her freshman year in 2022. She was a USA Lacrosse
All-American during her tenure at North Shore (N.Y.) High
School.
“This year, we’ll rely a bit more on X’s and O’s rather than
individual players to press the easy button to get us out of a
jam,” he said. “We’re going to get back to what our program is
about — giving players a chance and relying on the depth of the
players we recruited.”
The by-committee offense will include junior attacker Zoey
Kruger and freshman Angela Beardsley. An athletic midfielder in
Haydin Eisfeld is expected to contribute, and Molly LaForge will
likely see more time after playing in 20 games and scoring four
goals in 2024.
