Seawolves football home opener set for September 7


Judith Brown Clarke Vice President for Equity and Inclusion Chief Diversity Officer | Stony Brook University

Football returns to Stony Brook on Saturday, September 7, as the Seawolves take on the Stonehill Skyhawks at 3:30 pm at LaValle Stadium, in Head Coach Billy Cosh’s first season at the helm.

The home opener celebration welcomes Seawolves fans back to LaValle Stadium with the 2024 Welcome Back Bash, as well as Faculty and Staff Appreciation Day, with free tickets for all Stony Brook faculty and staff. Additionally, select faculty and staff members will be recognized on the field for their dedication.

"Show your Seawolf pride and hype up the team as they walk from Gate 6 to Gate 4 with the Spirit of Stony Brook and spirit squads 90 minutes before kickoff!" Then, from your seat, experience the new team run out from the Coach K Bridge in the southwest corner of the stadium.

The Seawolves Fun Zone will be unveiled in the north end zone this season. SBU Eats will offer popcorn and pretzels for the youngest Seawolves fans as they catch the Seawolves spirit. This year, the Fun Zone will feature glitter tattoos, face painters and a mobile photo booth.

Stony Brook students should stay on the lookout for giveaways and raffles all season long in the Sherwin Williams Red Zone, located in the south end zone.

Everyone is invited to stay after the game for more from "the Spirit of Stony Brook Marching Band."

Season tickets, mini plans and single game tickets are all on sale now. Secure your seats today by calling 631-632-WOLF or visit StonyBrookAthletics.com/Tickets.

Don't Expect Bregman to Pay Off

This week, one of the bigger names in the free agency cycle signed with the Chicago Cubs, and fantasy managers everywhere sighed. Usually, anyone heading to Wrigley Field is viewed as a positive, but for Alex Bregman, more information has emerged suggesting this move could spell trouble for his fantasy outlook. Bregman is a right-handed pull hitter who previously played in two of the more favorable home parks for that profile in Houston and Boston. Both parks feature short left-field dimensions that reward pulled fly balls and help inflate power numbers.

Futures Bettors Will Be Smiling

The College Football Championship is set, and it pits two of the more unlikely teams against each other. Indiana may have the largest living alumni base in the country, with more than 800,000 graduates, but few expected the Hoosiers to reach this stage. They feature zero five-star recruits and have instead relied on depth, discipline, and consistency while dominating all season long.
