PROVIDENCE – After 10 games of disappointing, disjointed play to open this season, the Providence College Friars can only hope for some needed change when the next stage of the schedule tips off Saturday night.
PC welcomes Stony Brook to the Dunkin’ Donuts Center (8 p.m.) eight days after a dispiriting road loss to Rhode Island. As the players juggled semester exams and a case of the blues, coach Ed Cooley and his staff worked this week to make some important changes and also learn some valuable lessons from a 5-5 start that’s left everyone close to the program more than a bit surprised.
