Football returns to Stony Brook on Saturday, September 7th , 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."
