Meanwhile, American came up short against the Duquesne Dukes on Sunday, falling 88-79. Forward Matt Rogers had a pretty forgettable game, finishing with 12 points on 6-for-12 shooting in his 28 minutes on the court.
Stony Brook is now 2-3 while American sits at 2-5. A couple defensive numbers to keep in mind before tip-off: The Seawolves have allowed their opponents to shoot 49.70% from the floor on average, which is the third highest shooting percentage allowed in college basketball. The Eagles have experienced some struggles of their own as they have allowed their opponents to shoot 51% from the floor on average, which is the 354th highest shooting percentage allowed in college basketball. The good news? The teams might be seeing more of their shots fall.
