NEWARK, DEL.—Anthony Gilardi is used to it. The Stony Brook head coach spent eight seasons as an assistant at Towson. He is familiar with the gritty, blue-collar, dirt-under-the-fingernails ethos of the Colonial Athletic Association. So, when the Seawolves joined the CAA this season, Gilardi provided the tools for their accelerated CAA learning curve.
It's been a nice welcome, sparked Thursday night by the No. 3-seeded Seawolves’ 13-10 victory over No. 2 seed Drexel in the CAA Tournament semifinals at Delaware Stadium.
