· NCAA Men's Basketball
Johnson, West Virginia hold off Stony Brook 75-64
The Mountaineers (10-2) only led 28-24 at the half and after building a 19-point lead in the second half the Seawolves (4-9) got within nine with more than 2 1/2 minutes to go.
Erik Stevenson added 16 points for West Virginia and Joe Toussaint had 12. Seth Wilson was 3-for-3 shooting from 3-point range in the second half, including a clutch basket to blunt the last Stony Brook rally.
West Virginia forward Emmitt Matthews, averaging 10.8 points per game, missed his second straight game with a left knee injury. He is listed as day to day.

West Virginia, which shot at least 50% in its last three games, was 3 of 12 behind the arc and shot 34.5% overall in the first half. Johnson was the only Mountaineer with much success, scoring 12 points.
Stony Brook got within 33-32 on a Policelli 3-pointer 2 1/2 minutes into the second half but Tre Mitchell and Stevenson had back-to-back 3's to close an 8-0 run immediately after that. That's when the Seawolves started cooling off and the Mountaineers heated up.
Toussaint had a 3-pointer and Wilson hit consecutive 3s in a 15-2 run that broke it open. Wilson's second triple made it 60-41.
Stony Brook made a last push, scoring seven straight and then Keenan Fitzmorris hit a jumper to cut it to 66-57 with 2 1/2 minutes to go. Wilson hit another 3 and that restored the double-figure lead down the stretch.
