QUOTES FROM THE SEAWOLVES
"The Riverhawk Invitational, hosted by UMass Lowell, allowed both teams to compete at the world-class New Balance indoor facility that hosted the NCAA Championships last year," head coach Andy Ronan said. "The men competed on day 1. It was a mixed day of results. We were hoping for a better day than we got, but the main thing is we have time to get performances to where we want them for later in the season." 

UP NEXT
With its busy January schedule now coming to a close, Stony Brook will return to the track on Feb. 7 for the Fastrack National Invite at the Ocean Breeze Athletic Complex in Staten Island.
