“It wasn’t our best game of the series in a couple of ways, but we found a way to be gritty and grind out the win and get an important CAA sweep,” head coach Megan T. Bryant said. “That’s the sign of a good team… not firing on all cylinders and you find a way to win. I thought we could’ve been a little more productive offensively and we had an uncharacteristically messy inning defensively, but I thought Gabby was great in relief to give us a lift and get the W.”

The team visited St. John’s for a mid-week, non-conference clash on April 8. Results were not available as of press time.

With only relays left to be run, Stony Brook ended its weekend with a bang, topping the field to win the Distance Medley Relay thanks to strong runs from Grace Sisson, Omokeni, Goslar, and Cirrito.

DAY TWO HIGHLIGHTS

“Day two at the Colonial Relays is all about relays, and it was a really nice opportunity for our program to add Stony Brook to the long list of top programs on the East Coast that have won a relay event at this meet,” said Ronan. “We picked up wins for the men and the women today. The women took control of the DMR early with a strong opening leg from Sisson. The other three legs, Omokeni (400m), Goslar (800m), and anchor leg Cirrito (mile), kept the pressure up, and the ladies had a convincing win in the end.”
