Shania Johnson continued her incredible senior season in leading the third-seeded Seawolves into the semifinals.
Johnson broke her own school record with 16 assists (she's fourth in the country in the category) and added 14 points and India Pagan scored a career-high 21 points (on 10-of-13 shooting) in Stony Brook's 69-58 win.
Johnson's back court mate Jerell Matthews' night became sort of an afterthought, but it shouldn't have been. The 5-9 senior drained six 3-pointers (on 10 attempts) and scored 20 points to go along with a team-high eight rebounds.
The Seawolves erased a six-point halftime deficit thanks to a dominant third quarter (28-15).
Vermont got a game-high 28 points from Hanna Crymble.

Game 424 - Thanksgiving eve matinee
Farmingdale State women at Stony Brook
November 22 at Island Federal Credit Union Arena in Stony Brook, NY
espn3.com
This had the look of a Division 1 team hosting a Division 3 school as Stony Brook used another stifling defensive performance to cruise to a 76-25 victory.
Stony Brook is 4-0 for the first time since 1997-98.
Farmingdale made just 10 field goals (18%) from the field and three from behind the arc in 26 attempts (11%). Senior forward Essence Casey came into the game averaging 18.2 points through Farmingdale's first four games, but struggled Wednesday, scoring just eight points on 3-of-16 shooting.
Through four games, the Stony Brook defense is surrendering just 31% shooting from the field and 18% on threes.
On the other hand, the Stony Brook offense has a bit of work to do. Facing a smaller, slower Division 3 team, the Seawolves turned the ball over 16 times and didn't score their first point until the 5:06 mark of the opening quarter. The hosts did follow with a 16-0 run that effectively put the game away.
Carl Reuter
Let me start by saying 1. I really love saying and writing Farmingdale. 2. Also: Reuter was by himself for this broadcast. No color commentator. That's rare, and I commend anyone handling a broadcast by her/himself.
I should know all about it. I broadcasted 7 minutes of a game once.
BUT, that doesn't mean Carl didn't provide some nonsense:
* Farmingdale was playing its second game in as many nights, and Tuesday it lost in overtime to Brooklyn, so Carl said seven times that the Rams had "tired legs".
Honorable mentions
"dribble drive"
!
[4:50 left in the third quarter]
"leak out
"she's strong, she's durable, and a take charge player"
"building the culture"
"stick a J"
"take the air out of the ball"
"snakes her way and the foul!"
"in the act of shooting"

Game 335 - (7) Binghamton at (2) Stony Brook
America East quarterfinals

Lucas Woodhouse was named first-team all-conference before the tournament began, then went out and hit five 3-pointers on his way to 24 points and a 70-60 win for the 2 seed.
The senior guard, in his second season with the Seawolves after transferring from Longwood, led the way amongst the starters, while Akwasi Yeboah paced the reserves. Yeboah showed why he was an all-rookie team selection as the redshirt-freshman finished with career highs in points (21) and rebounds (16) in 26 minutes.
Yeboah came into the night averaging 8.9 points and 4.4 rebounds.
Stony Brook is the defending tournament champions and will host third-seeded Albany (100-71 winner over No. 6 Hartford in the quarterfinals) in Monday's semifinals.

Game 176 - (3) Vermont at (1) Stony Brook
America East championship
March 12 at USB Sports Complex in Stony Brook, NY

Stony Brook had never been to the NCAA Tournament and it looked like that drought would continue on Saturday morning.
Vermont led 48-33 about five minutes into the second half and you could hear a seawolf drop onto a catamount.
But Jameel Warney was absolutely fantastic. The senior scored 43 points - 23 of which came over the final 15 minutes - on 18-of-22 shooting, and sent the Seawolves to the NCAAs for the first time in school history.
I don't know much about translating college size into NBA size, but Warney is 6-8, 260, so small forward? He's already got an NBA post game that continues to develop and is also an excellent defender (America East DPOY). Before he graduates to the pros, though, Worley certainly gives the new America East champions (maybe a 14-seed?) a shot at a first-round upset.
