Key Stats Head Coach Scott Marr: "That was the rivalry right there.  This was the last time we play Stony Brook in-conference.  I'm really happy that we won.  I'm so proud of my team and my coaching staff for really coming together this week, taking a deep dive into ourselves and coming out and playing for each other and playing hard and playing with a great attitude and unbelievable effort today.  I couldn't be more proud of the guys diving and soaking shots and making one more pass.  We really played like a team today.  It was a much-needed win.  I talked about it being a must-win, and I'm really happy about the response that we got.  We made some changes defensively this week and tried to play more to our strengths, and we were really happy that that worked out.  John Maloney has done a great job with our defense and it was nice to see that pay off."
