Out of the nearly 10 decades of Stony Brook Athletics, the 2010s stand apart as perhaps the most successful in our school’s lengthy history. 63 team titles were secured, the most of any 10-year span in Blue & White history. The most Long Island, Suffolk County, and League Championships won in a single decade were claimed in the 2010s as well as the second-most Regional and individual State Championships.

Before another decade of success dawns for the Brook, let’s look back at the titles won in the last one.
