good news / bad news for my alma mater

First this: Senior guard Muhammad El-Amin (Lansing, Mich.) of the Stony Brook University men's basketball team was named the Kevin Roberson America East Player of the Year on Friday at the conference's annual awards banquet. The leading scorer on the America East's top team during the regular season, El-Amin is the first player in program history to earn the conference's top honor. Stony Brook head coach Steve Pikiell became the first coach in school history to earn America East Coach of the Year honors after leading the Seawolves to their first America East regular season title and a 21-7 overall record. In addition, sophomores Bryan Dougher (Scotch Plains, N.J.) and Tommy Brenton (Columbia, Md.) were named to All-America East second team and senior Andrew Goba (Durban, South Africa) was selected to the America East All-Academic team. Brenton also earned a spot on America East All-Defensive team. El-Amin also became the first Stony Brook player ever selected to the five-player All-America East first team. Then, they lose to BU in the conference tournament, blowing their shot at getting to the NCAA tourney. Also, SB alum Joe Nathan blows out his elbow. But I-Con is back, in 2 weeks. So there's that.

S'okay. We're winning the NIT this year.
