Stony Brook Takes Series, 100th All-Time Meeting With Albany

STONY BROOK, N.Y. – The Stony Brook baseball team scored two in the second and four in the fourth to take down UAlbany 7-4 on Saturday afternoon to win the series between the SUNY rivals and keep the Seawolves in first in the America East.
 
Junior Chris Hamilton (Schenectady, N.Y.) went a perfect 3-for-3 and freshman Brad Hispley (Saratoga Springs, N.Y.) added a two-hit day to aid the Seawolves at the plate. Redshirt-junior Aaron Glickstein (Dix Hills, N.Y.) went three and a third for the save, his first of the season.
 
SENK'S REACTION
"It feels great with the rivalry as well as keeping ourselves in a position to stay on top of the conference, especially with a tough stretch of conference weekends coming up. I'm proud of our guys and am really excited to win the series against one of our longer rivals."
