The Stony Brook football team earned a spot in the AFCA Coaches Top-25 Poll for the first time since 2019 as the organization announced the Seawolves at No. 24 on Oct. 21. 
 
The Seawolves have tallied votes from the AFCA poll for the last seven weeks and have been recognized on the Stats Perform list for the last six weeks. They have also received votes in the CBS Sports FCS Top-25 poll this season. 

In their last time out, Tyler Knoop threw for a career-high 387 yards and broke the program record with six passing touchdowns, while Roland Dempster put up 103 yards on the ground as Stony Brook dominated Towson, 52-24, on the road on Oct. 19.

The Seawolves head back to Long Island for their next battle as they host No. 15 William & Mary for Homecoming on Saturday, Oct. 26th. The Seawolves are 1-4 all-time against the Tribe and are looking for their first victory over W&M at LaValle Stadium. Kickoff is set for 3:30 p.m. and the contest will air live on SNY and stream live on FloFootball.
