STONY BROOK, N.Y. (AP) Carson Puriefoy and Bryan Sekunda scored 15 points apiece and two teammates had doube-doubles as Stony Brook rolled to an 89-54 win over Division III Merchant Marine on Sunday.

Jameel Warney added 13 points and Tyrell Sturdivant 11 and both had 10 rebounds as the Seawolves (2-2) dominated the boards 50-19, including 23 on the offensive end.

David Smith led Merchant Marine (0-4) with 21 points, Matthew Miller added 15 and Robbie Kennedy 10.
