Men's Lacrosse
Stony Brook first fielded a lacrosse program in 1983 and since then holds an overall record 214 wins and 178 losses. Lacrosse entered Division I in the mid-1990s and joined the America East Conference in 2002 season. That same year, Stony Brook finished the season with 10-7, 3-2 America East record and also were the Conference tournament winners with a 8-6 win over the Albany Great Danes sending the Seawolves to their first ever Men's lacrosse NCAA Tournament in their initial year. After a successful 2002 season, the Seawolves went on to defend their conference title but loss to Albany 11-5 in the 2003 Semifinals. For the next five years the Seawolves fell out of the national spotlight not being able to be Regular season or tournament champions. However, in the 2007, the Seawolves were under their new head coach Rick Sowell who led them to winning seasons in 2007, 2008, and conference tournament runner-ups in 2009 being a win shy from their second NCAA tournament appearance.

“Who ever hears of fat men heading a riot, or herding together in turbulent mobs?—No—no, ‘tis your lean, hungry men who are continually worrying society, and setting the whole community by the ears.”
