These days, there's something besides Strat-o-Matic headquarters to get them interested in this part of Long Island. Local Stony Brook has them talking at the diners and coffee shops as it has become one of the hottest teams in the Coastal. Five wins on the spin (the last three on the road) have moved the Seawolves up to third place in the loop, with Milwaukee transfer G Erik Pratt (19.;5 ppg) emerging as a CAA star with recent back-to-back efforts of 31 and 39 points. Meanwhile, less consistency from King Rice's Monmouth, which fluctuates too much based upon top scorer Jason Rivera-Torres (15.6 ppg), twice scoring in single digits in recent Hawks losses. Play Stony Brook.
