Stony Brook found a way to stay with Kentucky. I know, this isn't your father's Kentucky team that was a final four contender every year under Rick Pitino or your grandpa's team that dominated college ball under Rupp. But it's still Kentucky. And the Seawolves deserve credit for only losing 62-52. Hey, they actually trailed by six with less than six minutes to go. But as has been the case this season, the Seawolves couldn't score. Not even from the free throw line as they hit just 11 of 20 attempts.
The good news is Michael Tyree had another strong game with 13 off the bench. And he hit three from long range in the second half. Mitch Beauford had 20. The main one missing from action was Ricky Lucas. He is still the team's best player, but he hasn't been consistent scoring. He needs to start pouring it on at some point, or Stony Brook (0-6) will struggle every night.
