Roland Dempster ran for 179 yards and two scores and Stony Brook defeated Campbell 24-17 on Saturday in the Coastal Athletic Association opener for the Seawolves.

Stony Brook (3-1) built a 21-0 lead in the second quarter but after a two-touchdown rally by Campbell it was late in the fourth quarter before the Seawolves regained a two-score lead. Leading 21-14, the Seawolves took five minutes off the clock with a 10-play, 53-yard drive that culminated in a 39-yard field goal by Enda Kirby and a 24-14 lead.

Campbell hadn't crossed midfield since a third-quarter touchdown drive, the score coming on a 37-yard pass play from Chad Mascoe Jr. to Aiden Valdez that made it 21-14. With two minutes left and a 10-point deficit, the Fighting Camels drove to the 12-yard line, but with time running out they opted for a short field goal to get within seven points, potentially leaving enough time for a Hail Mary attempt. But Stony Brook recovered the onside kick and took a knee to run out the clock.

Dempster scored twice in the first quarter, his 2- and 3-yard runs staking Stony Brook to a 14-0 lead.

Malachi Marshall completed 13 of 30 passes for 157 yards for Stony Brook.

Mascoe was 9 of 14 passing for 160 yards with one touchdown for Campbell (1-3, 0-2).
