STONY BROOK, N.Y. – The Stony Brook men's basketball team returns home for the first of three at Island Federal Arena on Wednesday night, taking on LIU Brooklyn at 7 p.m.
 
The Seawolves received a 23-point performance from redshirt-junior Akwasi Yeboah (Chigwell, England) and a career night from sophomore Anthony Ochefu (West Chester, Pa.), but saw its six-game winning streak come to an end in a 71-69 loss to Brown on Saturday afternoon in Providence, R.I.
 
THE OPPONENT
LIU Brooklyn comes in with wins in two of its last three outings, most recently a 74-58 favorable decision against Saint Peter's on Saturday afternoon. Raul Frias scored 21 points, all on 3-pointers, in 28 minutes off the bench. The team's leading scorer, Raiquan Clark, added 16 points and 15 rebounds in all 40 minutes of action in Jersey City.
 
The Blackbirds attempt the most threes in the NEC, taking 277 this season. That number is also good for 20th in the country. Clark enters Wednesday night averaging 20.6 points per game and grabbing 5.8 rebounds while shooting 53.5 percent from the field.
 
THE SERIES
The two teams have split the previous two meetings, with the latest coming last season in Brooklyn, when the Blackbirds took the game 75-71. The Seawolves won at Madison Square Garden on Thanksgiving in 2014, 73-54. Senior guard Jaron Cornish (Abaco, Bahamas) had 15 points off the bench for Stony Brook and also grabbed six rebounds on the night.

KRUNCH TIME KIDS
The Seawolves have rarely wasted an opportunity to put a team away under third-year head coach Jeff Boals. Stony Brook currently sits 31-3 when ahead with two minutes to play under the Ohio graduate and is 29-10, including 7-0 in 2018-19, when ahead after 20 minutes of action.
 
CHEF IS COOKIN'
Sophomore Anthony Ochefu (West Chester, Pa.) had a career afternoon in Providence, R.I. on Saturday, accumulating 13 points and five rebounds, both of which were career highs. 
The double-figure effort is the West Chester native's second of the season, putting up 12 against South Carolina in the other such performance. He is currently shooting 64 percent from the field and 75 percent from the charity stripe in 12 minutes a game for the Seawolves.
 
1K-WAS WATCH
Redshirt-junior Akwasi Yeboah (Chigwell, England) currently sits 23 points away from 1,000 for his career. He would become the 25th Seawolf in program history to reach the mark and the ninth to do it in the 20-year Division I history of the program. He would be the fifth to do it in his third full season with the Seawolves and the third to do it in his third season since 2012.
 
TAKING CHARITY          
The Seawolves made 34 free throws on Wednesday night in 41 attempts, resulting in just under half of their offensive output in a 69-62 win over Manhattan. This is the most free throw attempts in a game since the 2016-17 season when the Seawolves attempted 46 against UMBC. Stony Brook entered Monday's action seventh in the country in free throws made and ninth in free throws attempted in the country.

UP NEXT
The Seawolves continue their homestand on Sunday afternoon, welcoming the Delaware Blue Hens for a 2 p.m. tip at Island Federal Arena.
