Men's Lacrosse holds first practice of 2011 season

Stony Brook, N.Y. - The Stony Brook men's lacrosse team began preseason practice with a workout at Kenneth P. LaValle Stadium on Monday. Head Coach Rick Sowell and his staff put the Seawolves through an afternoon practice, mixed in with meetings and film study.
Stony Brook, which boasted one of the nation's top offenses in 2010, returns all six of its starters at attack and midfield. Among the group is preseason All-American, senior Jordan McBride (New Westminster, British Columbia). McBride, who was drafted 14th overall by Rochester in Friday's Major League Lacrosse draft, had 48 goals last season, giving him 134 in just three seasons. Also in that mix is senior Kevin Crowley (New Westminster, British Columbia). The first overall pick in the 2011 draft, Crowley became the Seawolves' first ever first-team All-American after 51-goal, 26-assist effort last season.
Seniors Adam Rand (Niantic, Conn.) and Tom Compitello (Hauppauge, N.Y.), who also were drafted on Friday and named preseason All-American, return this season.
The Seawolves return experienced defenders in senior Bryan Reinert (Alletown, Pa.), junior Savaughn Greene (White Plains, N.Y.) and junior Greg Miceli (King City, Ontario).
