Dana Ferraro notched a double-double for Stony Brook with 13 points and 10 boards. The Black Bears shot a blistering 60 percent from the floor in the first half and built a 37-27 lead heading into the locker room at halftime. Underwood scored 18 points in the opening 20 minutes, as Maine led by as many as 13.
However, the Seawolves outscored the Black Bears 40-19 in the second half to earn the come-from-behind win. SBU ran its record to 18-10 on the season and 14-2 in the league.
