Stony Brook, N.Y. - The Stony Brook men's basketball program will be without starting guard Larry Jennings when the 2001-02 season begins on November 17 at St. John's.

The junior guard suffered a hairline fracture of a bone in his left foot when he landed on a teammate's foot during Friday's practice. An MRI is scheduled for Tuesday to determine the extent of the injury and how long Jennings will be out of action.

Jennings, a standout at St. John's Prep, sat out last season after transferring from St. Joseph's (Pa.)
