THREE STONY BROOK FOOTBALL GAMES TO BE TELEVISED IN 2008



Games Against Hofstra, Maine and VMI Will Be Televised

Stony Brook, N.Y. - Three of Stony Brook University's football games will be televised live in 2008, including the annual contest for bragging rights on Long Island between Stony Brook and Hofstra as well as games against the University of Maine and the Virginia Military Institute. The combination of the three games will bring Stony Brook football to sports fans all along the East Coast, from Maine to South Carolina. The battle between the Seawolves and Pride will be moved from Saturday, September 27 to Friday, September 26 and will air live in prime time at 7:00 p.m. on MSG network. Others games scheduled for television coverage are games at Maine on September 13 and the final game of the season at home against VMI on November 15.
A time change for the contest with VMI, one of five Big South games Stony Brook will play in its inaugural season in the league, will be made for the broadcast on the Mid-Atlantic Sports Network (MASN). The game will move from a 1:00 p.m. start to 3:30 p.m. on November 15 and will be the first meeting ever between the Seawolves and Keydets. The MASN network is available in the New York area through either Direct TV or Dish Network satellite services.
The game at Maine, which will be the first football visit to the Orono campus for Stony Brook, will be carried on both WABI-TV5 in Bangor and CW/My TV in Portland.
Live video streaming for all 11 of Stony Brook's games in 2008 will be available through the official Stony Brook Athletics website at www.goseawolves.org.
