As always, hoping this is the year this program finally makes
the final four. As for the schedule, it appears we have
problems with getting other top-ten programs who�ll agree to
play us. After Denver/Syracuse (which are scheduled on a Monday
and Tuesday, why?) the strength of schedule falls off
dramatically on paper. This never helps come tourney time and
seeding. I see this team as having to go undefeated in order to
to even sniff a potential seed in the top 8. We shall see how it
all unfolds.

2024 NCAA Lacrosse Preview: No. 10 Stony Brook (Women)
https://www.usalaxmagazine.com/college/women/2024-ncaa-lacrosse-preview-no-10-s…
[quote]
NO. 10 STONY BROOK
2023 Record: 15-4 (7-0 CAA)
Final Ranking (2023): No. 10
Head Coach: Joe Spallina
Assistants: Greg Miceli, Sydney Pirreca
It�s strange to call a second-round exit an early one for Stony
Brook, but after bowing out in the opening weekend of the NCAA
tournament from 2013-16, the Seawolves had made four of the last
five quarterfinals.
The 2024 Seawolves roster includes six returning graduate
students: Jolie Creo, Kailyn Hart, Morgan Mitchell, Erin
MacQuarrie, McKenzie Mitchell and Charlotte Verhulst.
�They don�t want to leave, and I don�t want them to leave,�
Spallina said. �They feel they're playing for something more
than a school. They�re playing for the Long Island lacrosse
community. It�s a player-driven model. We empower the heck out
of our players. It�s hard to say goodbye.�
TOP RETURNERS
Ellie Masera, M, Sr. (71G, 24A, 90DC)
Kailyn Hart, A, Gr. (55G, 23A SV)
Clare Levy, Sr., D (58DC, 16CT, 27GB)
Spallina expects Masera, the lefty Hart and senior midfielder
Jaden Hampel (31G, 20A) to comprise a three-headed monster.
KEY ADDITIONS
Emily Manning, G, Gr. (123 saves at Binghamton)
Haydin Eisfeld, A, Fr. (Helped Bayport-Blue Point to a N.Y.
Class C state championship)
Olivia Schorr, M, Fr. (Under Armour All-American at Canandaigua
Academy)
NOTABLE DEPARTURES
Graduations: Haley Dillon, D; Ella Whitehouse, D; Hailey
Duchnowski, G
X-FACTOR
Alex Finn, A, Gr. (42G, 40A at UMass)
Finn is also a key addition, but we�re spreading the wealth here
� which Finn also does on offense. She finished second to Fiona
McGowan in assists last season at UMass and brings experience
playing for a team that competes annually for conference titles
and NCAA berths. What�s more, she gives the Seawolves something
they�ve been lacking since Taryn Ohlmiller turned her tassel in
2021: A feeder from behind the cage.
Stony Brook will have a challenging stretch in March, playing
other top 15 teams in Syracuse (March 5), Johns Hopkins (March
9) and Denver (March 11). A 3-0 run and cleaning up in
conference play won�t hurt come Selection Sunday.
Heading into the 2024 season, Stony Brook is returning 98% of
its offensive production from a unit that finished 9th in the
country for adjusted offensive efficiency.

4. Stony Brook
The Seawolves had a disappointing finish in 2023, as a team
that�s frequented the Elite Eight in past seasons, seeing their
year come to an end in the second round. They�ll return multiple
key players on their offense in 2024 who have proven the ability
to score in a frequent fashion.
Kailyn Hart (55G, 23A): Hart returns for her fifth season with
the Seawolves after an illustrious career at Stony Brook. She�s
served as an anchor at X for her entire career, starting 60 of
her 62 games thus far.
Ellie Masera (71G, 24A): A speedster who relentlessly attacks
the cage, Masera never seems to run out of energy when the ball
is in her stick. Just as soon as the defense sits back, Masera
takes advantage, and it often pays off. While Masera will take
the occasional rep on defense, her impact on the offensive end
is unmatched.
Morgan Mitchell (43G, 20A): Coming off a career-high 63 points
last season, Mitchell provides the Seawolves with another option
on the offense as a newly established scoring threat. She�s got
the ability to capitalize in big games, too, notching a hat
trick or more on six occasions last season. [/quote]

No. 10/11 Stony Brook women�s lacrosse going for gold with
expiring window
https://sbstatesman.com/124383/sports/no-10-11-stony-brook-womens-lacrosse-goin…
[quote]
As always, expectations remain high for the Seawolves, who were
picked to win the Coastal Athletic Association (CAA) in the
coaches� preseason poll. The 2024 season will be the final one
for eight of their starters from the 2023 campaign, which
includes their top seven scorers. Before entering a new era,
Stony Brook will aim for history with its veteran group.
�When your standard is winning the national championship, there
is always going to be pressure,� Spallina said in an interview
with The Statesman. �We all feel the urgency to win, but I don�t
think it�s very different than the last five or six years.�
In the 2023 regular season, Stony Brook went 3-2 against ranked
opponents. It stacked its schedule again in 2024, as it is set
to show down with No. 5 Syracuse and No. 4 Denver. The Seawolves
will host Denver at Kenneth P. LaValle Stadium, from where they
currently own a 34-game winning streak.
The team�s attack is as stacked and healthy as ever. From a
statistical standpoint, the Seawolves lost just nine goals and
one assist in the offseason to either graduation or the transfer
portal. Their returning players combined to score 97.6% of the
team�s points (goals plus assists) last year.
�We�re all returning and a majority of us have been with each
other from the start,� Hampel said. �I think the bond that we
have with each other is our biggest strength. We realize from
losing those big games that we have to be willing to die for the
person next to us or do that one extra thing. I think all of us
have that agreement and our bond is unbreakable.�
�We�re returning the same offense, so if we keep doing what we
did last year, my role could fall into place with that,� Creo
said. �The only reason I was able to [lead the team in assists]
was because I had such good teammates around me. Getting in the
right position, putting themselves up so that I could feed them
and get those passes off.�
Another All-CAA Second Team selection that had a career year in
2023 was midfielder Charlotte Verhulst. Outside of her 25 goals
and nine assists, Verhulst also handled the majority of the
team�s duties in the draw circles. She finished third on the
team with 55 draw controls and helped the Seawolves achieve the
ninth-best draw control percentage (.584) in the nation last
season.
Another impact player on both sides of the ball in 2023 was
midfielder Erin MacQuarrie. She tallied 10 goals and eight
assists to go along with 24 ground balls and 11 caused
turnovers.
Masera, Hart, Mitchell, Hampel, Creo, Verhulst and MacQuarrie
are all entering their final collegiate season. Although the
seven have proven to make up a championship-caliber offense,
they will get help from another player in her last year:
attacker Alex Finn.
�Everyone on this team is super competitive,� Finn said. �That�s
kind of what drew me here. Everyone wants to prove other teams
wrong, so I really like that gritty aspect.�
Another fresh face that could find a spot on the Seawolves�
rotation is freshman attacker Haydin Eisfeld, who Spallina is
very high on.
Another freshman who could see time on the field is two-way
midfielder Isabella Caporuscio. Additionally, Allie Masera �
Ellie�s younger sister � will see an increase in playing time in
her sophomore season with Stony Brook. Also on the midfield is
Alexandra Fusco, who led the bench unit last year with seven
goals scored.
Spallina called Hines the �best defender that no one knows� and
believes she is going to have an All-American-caliber year. In
her first two seasons with the Seawolves, Hines played in just
13 games and started just one.
Manning is still in competition with freshman goalkeeper Natalia
Altebrando for the top spot. Aaliyah Jones � a senior who led
the team with a .485 save percentage last year � is out with an
undisclosed injury.
