Final Stats
Stony Brook, N.Y. - The Stony Brook women's basketball team (3-2) couldn't overcome a slow first quarter, which pitted them in a 13-point hole, falling to Ole Miss 72-57 on Friday at IFCU Arena.
McCombs Reaction
"We didn't play our style of basketball today," said head coach Caroline McCombs. "We did a lot of the things we needed to do to win, especially getting to the foul line, but we have to convert on our chances and knock down shots when we get there."
