LINEBACKERS

Grade: B+

As with the defensive line, the linebackers did what they needed to do to stifle the Seawolves’ offense. Stony Brook’s main tailback, Ty Son Lawson, had to search for any open holes as players such as Noah Sewell closed the gaps quickly. Sewell led the Ducks with 10 tackles, three solo, and a number of freshmen got to see the field, as did a couple of walk-ons.
