Mitchell Beauford was named the Stony Brook Athlete of the Week after his efforts over the weekend for the men's basketball team. Beauford led the Seawolves to a 1-1 record and averaged 22.0 points per contest.
In the Seawolves opening game of the 2006 campaign, Stony Brook defeated Colgate on the road, 65-59. Beauford netted 20 points and scored the final eight points of the game, including 6-for-6 from the free throw line in the final 39 seconds as the Seawolves held off Colgate down the stretch.
In a 76-72 loss at Cornell, Beauford tied his career-high in points scored with 24, including 15 in the first half. He dished out a team-high four assists and went 9 for 20 from the field.
The Seawolves return to action when they take on Penn State on Friday evening at 7:30 p.m.
