From the Sports Network via ABC 7 News:

Stony Brook men's basketball coach Nick Macarchuk announced Thursday that he will retire at the end of the 2004-05 season.

The PL old-timers out there best remember Nick as the guy who had no respect for the flow of the game, running players in and out at every whistle while winning the league title the first two years of its existence in 1991 and 1992. Macarchuk also led the Rams to a share of the regular season title in 1994 before giving sportswriters around teh league a break by taking his team and his tough to spell name to the Atlantic 10 after the 1995 season.
