Stony Brook University’s women’s basketball team has been picked to finish
seventh in the America East this season, according to the conference’s preseason
coaches’ poll. The poll was released today during the 2009 America East
Basketball Tip-Off Event in Hartford, Conn.
Head coach Michele Cherry has four returning starters in a lineup
that will be looking to improve upon last season’s seventh place finish. Junior
Kirsten Jeter (Elmont, N.Y.) enters the season just 350 points shy of 1,000
and 179 rebounds away from 500, while junior Misha Horsey (Wyncote, Pa.)
has started all 60 games of her career.
Defending league champion Vermont just edged Hartford for the top spot in
the preseason poll. Binghamton was picked third and New Hampshire and Boston
University finished in a tie for fourth. UMBC finished one spot in front of the
Seawolves while Maine and Albany rounded out the poll.
Stony Brook’s first home game will be November 13 against
Princeton and it will open America East play on January 2 on the road at
Hartford.
