The Retrievers were swept by Binghamton in a three-game series last weekend. UMBC was picked last in the six-team America East in the preseason coaches poll.

UMBC led 4-3 going into the ninth of the series finale against Binghamton on Sunday but the Bearcats scored two runs in their final at-bat to come away with the 5-4 victory. Senior Austin Drewyer went the distance for the third time this season and has walked just two batters in 57.1 innings.

Stony Brook won all six meetings between the teams last season.
