ANALYSIS:
Regardless of what the win percentage says, Stony Brook isn't a very good team this year. Ranked 182nd overall (out of 353) in our most recent ratings, they presently have a record of 24-9. They are also ranked by this site as the #2 team (out of nine) in the America East (average ranking 250.6).

Based on their performances this year, Stony Brook will likely find more success on defense than they will on offense. Allowing about 100 points for every 100 possessions vs. AO, they currently occupy the #110 slot in the ratings for defensive efficiency. Stony Brook has done a very good job to prevent opponents from draining threes this year. They rank 26th in the NCAA in defensive three-point percentage, allowing AO to make just 31.2% of their attempts from afar. Stony Brook has also been pretty good preventing teams from hitting shots in the paint. They are ranked 55th in the country in defensive near-proximity percentage, allowing AO to make good on only 55.6% of their attempts from close-up.

Unfortunately, Stony Brook is not even remotely close to being as good on offense as they are on defense. The team is ranked 262nd in offensive efficiency, scoring about 98 points every 100 possessions vs. AO. Stony Brook won't enter the conversation if you're looking to list the best three-point shooting teams in the country. They are ranked 317th in three-point field goal percentage nationally and make just 31.4% of their attempts from long vs. AO.
