SEATTLE — Jameel Warney banked in a short runner with 30 seconds left to give Stony Brook its first lead and the Seawolves beat No. 13 Washington 61-57 on Sunday night.

Warney finished with 15 points, and Kameron Mitchell added 12 on 4-of-5 3-point shooting.

Stony Brook (7-5) overcame a late 11-point deficit to stun the Huskies (11-1).

Rayshaun McGrew cut it to three and Carson Puriefoy hit a 3-pointer from the left wing with 1:07 left to pull the Seawolves even at 57. Mitchell made three 3-pointers during the late run. Stony Brook was 2 of 9 from 3-point range in the first half, then made six of its first seven tires in the second.

Robert Upshaw had 10 points and 11 rebounds for Washington. Williams-Goss also scored 10 points.

The Huskies were looking to get off to their best start ever under 13th-year coach Lorenzo Romar.

The Huskies had a double-digit lead for much of the night, but were unable to put away the Seawolves. Nigel Williams-Goss scored six straight points early in the second half to spark an 8-0 run that gave Washington a 47-31. Stony Brook answered with a 9-2 run to stay within striking distance.

The Seawolves started 3 for 15 from the floor and didn’t hit a 3-pointer until their sixth attempt.
