STONY BROOK, N.Y. --  Asiah Dingle led three players in double figures with 14 points, pacing defending champion Stony Brook (4-2, 2-0 AE) to a 55-47 win over Binghamton (0-4, 0-2 AE) in an America East women's basketball game on Sunday afternoon at the Island Federal Credit Union Arena. With the victory, the Seawolves sweep both conference games against the Bearcats this weekend, having won 61-52 on Saturday.

Dingle went 6-for-9 from the field and drained her lone three-point attempt. She was joined in double figures by Narimar Vargas-Reyes and India Pagan, each of whom finished with 10 points. 

Sophomore guard Denai Bowman tied Dingle for the game high with 14 points. She also finished with a career-best eight rebounds and dished out an assist.

Fellow sophomore guard Destiny Samuel scored a career-high 11 points, going 5-for-6 from the field in the process. She also grabbed five rebounds.

The Bearcats used a 12-3 run in a span of 5:50 to go up 25-15 with 2:21 left in the second period. Senior forward Kaylee Wasco punctuated the run with a three-point field goal, prompting Stony Brook to call a timeout.

The Seawolves regrouped and trimmed the deficit to 27-26 at the half. They then stormed out of the gate in the third quarter, going on an 8-0 run in the opening 3:30 to take a 35-27 lead.

Bowman pulled the Bearcats to within 43-39 when she hit a jumper with 7:12 left in regulation. Stony Brook, however, iced the game on back-to-back baskets by Vargas-Reyes and Dingle to go up 55-45 with 2:03 left to go. 

"Being such a young team, we just need to put four quarters together but that will come," head coach Bethann Shapiro Ord. "Denai did a great job attacking the rim and getting rebounds today and Destiny gave us a big spark off the bench. We got to continue to be more disciplined as a team but we will get there."

Wasco and junior guard Hayley Moore each finished with eight points. Sophomore forward Clare Traeger, meanwhile, grabbed seven rebounds and recorded a career-high four steals. 

Stony Brook held a 29-15 advantage in bench scoring.

Binghamton returns home for a two-game conference series against UMBC next Sunday and Monday. Tip off time for both games is set for 2 p.m.

NOTES: Samuel reached double figures for the first time in her career ... Bowman's previous career high in rebounds was seven, which she reached in a pair of games.
