LOWELL, Ma. – Stony Brook head coach Matt Senk collected his 800^th career victory on Friday afternoon the Seawolves' America East Conference doubleheader split against UMass Lowell at LeLacheur Park.
 
The Seawolves (29-22, 12-11 AE) claimed game one, 3-0, while the River Hawks (23-27, 12-11 AE) took game two, 2-0. Both UMass Lowell and Stony Brook remain in a second-place tie in the America East standings with one game to play.

Stony Brook was able to break a scoreless tie in the seventh inning when senior LF Andruw Gazzola (Coram, N.Y.) walked to open the inning, senior 3B Bobby Honeyman (Massapequa, N.Y.) reached on an error on a bunt attempt, sophomore 1B Chris Hamilton (Schenectady, N.Y.) bunted the runners over and sophomore RF Michael Wilson (Colonia, N.J.) hit a sacrifice fly that scored Gazzola from third.
