BROOKLINE, Mass. -- The Northeastern Huskies (31-18, 20-7 CAA) completed a three-game sweep of the Stony Brook Seawolves (20-28, 12-15 CAA) with a 7-4 victory on Sunday afternoon at Friedman Diamond, sweeping their final home series of the 2026 regular season behind a dominant bullpen effort from Cooper Maher and Andrew Wertz.
After falling behind early, the Huskies answered with three runs in the first inning and two more in the second to take a 5-4 lead before Stony Brook's bats went cold. Maher earned the win with five scoreless innings of one-hit relief after entering in the third, while Wertz closed the door with two hitless frames to pick up his fourth save of the season. Offensively, Harrison Feinberg reached base three times, AJ Aschettino collected three hits and two RBIs, and Henry DiGiorgio drove in the go-ahead run in the fifth to cap another productive weekend from the bottom of the order.
- Stony Brook jumped on the Huskies early with a pair of singles followed by a balk to lead 1-0.
- Northeastern responded with three runs in the bottom of the first, taking advantage of a walk to Feinberg, a catcher's interference call that put Gerety on base, and a balk that moved both runners into scoring position. Feinberg scored on a Stony Brook throwing error, Gerety came home on an Aschettino RBI single to first, and Brinker scored on a passed ball after Musacchia walked and stole second, giving the Huskies a 3-1 lead.
- The Huskies added two more in the second to extend the lead to 5-2. Feinberg singled to center to send Tyler Harmony, who had walked, to third. Gerety singled to center to drive in Harmony, and Feinberg scored on a wild pitch for the fifth Northeastern run of the game.
- Maher entered in the third inning after Stony Brook had closed the gap to 5-4 and delivered five shutout innings, allowing just one hit while striking out two. He induced five fly-ball outs and six ground-ball outs, keeping the Seawolves off balance and giving the Husky offense time to add on.
- DiGiorgio provided the go-ahead insurance run in the fifth, singling to center field to score Aschettino from second base after a sacrifice bunt by Musacchia moved him into scoring position.
- Northeastern added another run in the sixth when Feinberg was hit by a pitch, stole second, moved to third on a Gerety single, and scored on an Aschettino sacrifice fly to center field for the 7-4 lead.
- Wertz entered in the eighth and was dominant, striking out two and working around a walk and a double to strand runners at the corners in the frame. He then retired the side in order in the ninth, capping the save with a 12-pitch strikeout to end the game.
- Carmelo Musacchia stole his 89th career base in the first inning, tying Cam Maldonado's program record. Musacchia can break the all-time mark the next time he takes the basepaths.
- Northeastern now holds a two-game lead over Monmouth in the CAA North standings with three conference games remaining. The Huskies are 20-7 in CAA play, just the fourth 20-win conference season in program history. All four 20-win conference seasons have come in the Mike Glavine era.
- Feinberg reached base in all but one of his plate appearances, going 2-for-3 with a walk, a hit-by-pitch, a stolen base, and three runs scored. He has reached base safely in 27 consecutive games.
The Huskies travel to UConn on Tuesday for a midweek non-conference game before closing out the CAA regular season next weekend at Towson. Tuesday's first pitch is scheduled for 6:05 p.m.
