Stony Brook, N.Y. - Coming off a share of the Big South Championship in just its second year in the conference, the Stony Brook football team will meet with the media at the league's annual Media Day on Thursday at the Renaissance Hotel in Charlotte.

The Big South will broadcast the event from approximately 1:45-3:30pm on BigSouthSports.com, with a coach and student-athlete from each of the seven schools available for an interview session.

Each team's head coach and student-athlete will be interviewed in 10-minute intervals.
