BRITTAIN ALTOMARE

When we were freshmen, all we heard repeatedly was, “just watch, it goes by faster than you think.” Now that we’re seniors, we know how

true that really is. I wish then I had known to cherish every moment, because it truly does go by faster than I could have ever imagined. I am infinitely thankful for the memories and friendships I have made while being a member of the Hofstra Women’s Lacrosse team. Through seemingly impossible practices and inexpressible wins, I have had my best friends by my side every step of the way. Being part of the Pride has taught me what it means to be relentless, determined and hard working. I will carry these valuable lessons and priceless memories with me for the rest of my life. Go Pride!

KAITLIN AYRES

My four years at Hofstra have been amazing. I have learned so much through the different experiences and opportunities I have had on

the field and in the classroom. My family, teammates, coaches and athletic trainers have all contributed to my growth in many different ways and I cannot thank them enough for this. I am so grateful for all of the unforgettable memories I have from my four years here, and for the life-long friendships I have formed. I would like to thank my teammates, coaches, parents and everyone else who has supported me in my time at Hofstra. I am proud to be apart of the 2015 class, and am excited to see what the future holds for the six of us.

KELSEY GREGERSON

When I was younger it had always been a dream of mine to play lacrosse at Hofstra University. I still remember being dropped off my freshman

year at Hofstra and my mom telling me, “enjoy these four years because this is where you will meet your best friends for life.” In these past few years I have gained best friends and a second family. Looking back at my time here at Hofstra, I will take away great memories with my amazing teammates for the rest of my life. Through being a part of this amazing lacrosse program, I have learned hard work and dedication can help you reach

your dreams. I would like to thank my teammates, the Hofstra Lacrosse program and my coaches for everything they have done for me. Before every game I would sit in the locker room and receive a text from my mom saying, “just have fun” and before I stepped on to the field Coach Smith would stop me and say, “just have fun.” They were both right. Each game my teammates and coaches allowed me to enjoy the game that I love so much. I would like to make a shout out to the rest of the seniors - I couldn’t imagine ending my lacrosse career with anyone else. You each have taught me something different that I will take with me for the rest of my life and we have gained friendships that will last for a lifetime.

APRIL IANNETTA

Writing a “senior reflection” was something I thought I had a lifetime to think about, but here I am, a senior, looking back on freshman year like it was

yesterday. It is absolutely crazy how fast these four years at Hofstra have gone, but they are four years that I wouldn’t want to spend anywhere else, with any other group of girls. Because of the friends I have met and the memories we have made – like early morning practices, preseason speed camps and those great times off the field – I can truly say I have become a better person. Lastly, to my fellow seniors – the original six – we’ve made it! I am so grateful for every one of you and the accomplishments we have made together. This entire last year has been filled with reminiscing over old memories, so lets go out there and make this last season another one to remember.

SAM LENOX

Reflecting back on these four years, I can’t help but feel blessed to have been a part of this team – my second family. It is hard to believe that this remarkable

ride is almost over, leaving me with years of memories and unforgettable friendships to carry along with me as I go. I’ll leave this program having learned so much by just being a part of it, and I owe that all to my teammates and coaching staff. So smile at the simple stuff, cause this road isn’t quite long enough. Team. Together. Pride.

ABBY WILSON

I remember the first day of freshman year seeing familiar faces, and meeting some for the first time, that I would be spending the next few years with. I didn’t realize at the time

that these people would become my family away from home and my best friends. I couldn’t have asked for a better five seniors to spend the last four years with, us being the originals, coming in together from day one. Looking back on my time at Hofstra, I would not change a thing. I have learned what it takes to be successful on and off the field. If it were not for my teammates, my coaches, Bobby and Jimmy, I would not be who I am today. Leaving these days behind is something that I did not know would come so soon. Although I am sad that my lacrosse career is coming to an end, I would not have wanted to spend the past four years anywhere else or with anyone else. I have truly learned something from each and every person along my journey, and I thank everyone who made it possible and who gave me such a great experience that I can take away for a lifetime.

SENIOR REFLECTIONS


Shannon Smith, a three-time first-team lacrosse All-American who is among the most decorated players in the sport, is

now in her third season as the head women’s lacrosse coach at Hofstra University.

Smith became the ninth head coach in the history of the Hofstra women’s lacrosse program in July 2012.

Smith has coached the Pride to a 19-18 record in her first two seasons and led her squad to the CAA Championship Tournament each year. She has coached senior April Iannetta to back-to-back CAA Defensive Player of the Year Awards, as well as Becky Conto to the 2013 CAA Rookie of the Year Award.

In 2014 Hofstra posted an 8-10 record while finishing 12th in the nation in scoring defense. Junior goalkeeper Kelsey Gregerson ranked fourth in the country in save percentage and eighth in goals against average. In addition to Iannetta’s Defensive Player of the Year trophy, five other players received All-CAA accolades and two (Brittain Altomare and Iannetta) were named to the IWLCA all-region team.

In her first season at the helm, Smith led the Pride to an 11-8 mark and a berth in the CAA

Championship game. The Pride posted a six-win improvement from 2012 and ranked in the top 20 nationally in scoring defense, ground balls per game and caused turnovers. Iannetta shared the CAA Defensive Player of the Year Award, Conto took home CAA Rookie of the Year accolades and Altomare set a new school record for assists under Smith’s tutelage.

Smith completed a four-year playing career at Northwestern in May 2012. Among her many highlights included winning three NCAA titles, earning three first team All-American honors (2010, 2011, 2012) and capturing the 2011 Tewaaraton (presented annually to the NCAA women’s and men’s lacrosse player of the year) and lacrosse Honda (recognized as the top collegiate female athlete in her sport, and the award is considered by many as one of the highest honors a female college athlete can receive in the nation) Awards.

Smith is very adept at the business side of lacrosse as well. Since 2009, she has served as a director with Long Island Top Guns girls lacrosse club. Smith has assisted with every aspect of the club and helped organize and coach a training program for over 300 players. From managing the business side of the club to coaching

teams, Smith has played a vital role in the development of one of the top club programs in the area. Through her work with Long Island Top Guns, Smith manages a total of four camps, while overseeing a staff of over 20 people.

2015 ROSTER


Following two consecutive appearances in the Colonial Athletic Association championship, including a trip the finals in 2013, the Hofstra Women’s Lacrosse team is poised to take that next

step in 2015.

Third-year Head Coach Shannon Smith has a formidable core of returning players and welcomes an equally-talented recruiting class that should hit the ground running and fill several open spots in the Hofstra lineup.

Leading the group of returning players are preseason Inside Lacrosse All-American April Iannetta, who was the 2014 CAA Defensive Player of the Year, as well as All-CAA goalkeeper Kelsey Gregerson. The Pride attack features the return of leading scorer and All-CAA selection Brittain Altomare.

Here is a position-by-position look at the 2015 Pride:

ATTACKAltomare has led the Pride in scoring in each of her three seasons, and is coming off a season that saw her post 30 goals and a school record 36 assists. She set the school mark for the second time in as many years and led the conference in assists for the second consecutive season. In addition to her scoring prowess, Altomare is counted on to help in other areas as her 62 draw controls and 21 ground balls were second and third, respectively, on the team in 2014.

Joining Altomare on the Hofstra attack is sophomore Tiana Parrella, who played in 14 games as a freshman. Parrella scored nine goals in her first season in a Hofstra uniform and will be looked upon to increase that total in 2015. Classmate Morgan Knox is another sophomore that Coach Smith is counting on this season. As a freshman, Knox played in seven games and had one goal.

Seniors Sam Lenox and Kaitlin Ayres return and will provide experience and veteran leadership to the position. Lenox started all 18 games in 2014 and was third on the team in scoring with 17 points on 16 goals and one assist. Ayres appeared in one game and tallied one goal.

Five newcomers to the team – freshmen Drew Shapiro, Zoe Gomez Katie Kirk and Samantha Torrico and junior Taylor Tabel – will also have the opportunity to carve out playing time on the Hofstra attack.

Shapiro was a four-time All-New Hampshire selection at Bedford High School and scored a state record 342 goals during her scholastic career. Gomez was an Under Armour All-American as a senior after tallying 79 goals and 15 assists at Wissahickon High School in Pennsylvania. Kirk was a member of three Suffolk County championship teams at Bay Shore High School, while Torrico joins the Pride from Ward Melville High School on Long Island where she posted 17 goals and eight assists as a senior. Tabel played scholastically at Cortland Junior-Senior High School where she was a four-sport athlete.

Alfano played in 17 games last season and has played in 36 contests during her first two seasons. She posted five goals and one assist in 2014 and also added 11 ground balls, eight caused turnovers and six draw controls. Conto, who was the CAA Rookie of the Year in 2013 after tallying 16 goals, missed all but four games due to injury last season. In her limited time, Conto did score two goals and added two assists. She also had eight draw controls. A healthy Conto gives the Pride another proven offensive threat that will alleviate pressure from Altomare, who scored 20-percent of the Pride’s goals in 2014.

Newcomers Carlee Ancona, Amanda Seekamp, Elena Schorr, Shea McAvoy and Jessica Geiersbach will also look to make a mark on the midfield unit. Ancona was a five-year member of the East Islip (NY) lacrosse team and was an All-Suffolk County performer. Seekamp also played lacrosse for five years in high school and was a two-time All-Suffolk County selection at East Hampton High School. She also led the county in assists as a junior. Schorr comes to Hofstra from Medina High School in Ohio where she was a member of two state championship teams. McAvoy played scholastically at Ward Melville High School on Long Island and was an all-division pick as a senior. Geiersbach earned All-Suffolk County accolades three times as a member of the lacrosse team at West Babylon (NY) High School.

DEFENSEIannetta, a two-time league defensive player of the year, returns to anchor an experienced back line that features classmate Abby Wilson and junior Shelby Milne. Iannetta played in all 18 games and led the team with 64 draw controls, and 26 caused turnovers. She also added 34 ground balls to go along with 12 goals and four assists.

Wilson started all 18 games and had 17 ground balls and 19 draw controls. Milne, who was a CAA All-Rookie selection in 2013, started 10 of 16 games and posted 13 ground balls and 10 caused turnovers.

The trio of returnees will be pushed by sophomore Audrey Byrd and freshmen Grayson Corbett and Carolyn Carrera. Byrd was a member of the team in 2014, but did not see any game action. Corbett was a two-time All-Howard County first team selection at Wilde Lake High School in Maryland. An offensive player in high school who scored 277 career goals, she will be shifting to the defensive end as a collegian. Carrera, who is also a member of the Pride Women’s Soccer team, was a two-time Brine High School All-America selection at Riverhead High School.

2015 OUTLOOK


GOALKEEPERGregerson has become one of the top keepers in the country and will look to improve on her league-best 7.93 goals against average and .500 save percentage from 2014. She ranked fourth in the nation in save percentage and was eighth in goals against average.

Sophomore Alexis Greene, who saw action in one game last season, will once again serve as the understudy to Gregerson. In her one appearance, Greene made two saves in just more than 11 minutes of action.

SCHEDULEThe Pride will face a formidable schedule in 2015 as five of their 16 opponents – Maryland, Johns Hopkins, Ohio State, Towson and Stony Brook – advanced to the NCAA Tournament in 2014. In addition, nine of the teams on the schedule won at least 10 games a season ago.

The highlight of the schedule will be a visit to Hempstead from defending National Champion Maryland on February 28. The Terps captured their 12th national title last May with a 15-12 victory over Syracuse.

The Pride will also travel to Columbus, Ohio, for a meeting with Ohio State and will host both Johns Hopkins and Stony Brook. When Johns Hopkins visits Hofstra on March 8 it will be the first trip to Hempstead for the Blue Jays since the two squads faced each other in the 2007 NCAA Tournament at James M. Shuart Stadium. The Stony Brook contest will be the first meeting between the schools since a 17-7 Hofstra victory in 2010. The Seawolves are coming off a 17-win season and a trip to the second round of the NCAA Tournament.

Hofstra University provides a dynamic college experience tailored for engaged and ambitious individuals.

Students find pride and purpose at Hofstra, through small classes, a faculty whose primary concern is teaching, cutting edge technology, extensive library resources, internships, and active and compelling educational programs that appeal to their interests and abilities. The Hofstra community is driven, dynamic and energetic, helping students find and focus their strengths to prepare them for a successful future.

In its relatively short 79-year history, Hofstra has established itself as a world-class institution of higher education and cultural enterprise. Each academic year, the Hofstra campus and the programs offered grow and change to meet the demands of our students and our community.

Hofstra opened in 1935 as a commuter school with all classes and offices housed in one building. Since those early days, Hofstra has evolved into an international institution with a student body hailing from 48 states and 69 countries around the world. The beautiful campus is an accredited arboretum with 115 buildings on 240 acres. There are approximately 3,800 students living on campus, and Hofstra offers them, and all students, an extensive array of academic and social activities. Additionally, Hofstra’s close proximity to Manhattan means that students have easy access to the wondrous cultural, social and career offerings of the city.

While the campus and its offerings have changed, what has remained consistent throughout the years is the sense of community on campus, the eagerness of our students to learn and the commitment of the Hofstra faculty and administration to provide

a challenging education that encourages the pursuit of lifelong learning.

The Colleges and Schools of the University are: Hofstra College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, Honors College, Frank G. Zarb School of Business, Herbert School of Communication, School of Education, School of Engineering and Applied Science, School of Health Sciences and Human Services, Maurice A. Deane School of Law, Hofstra North Shore-LIJ School of Medicine at Hofstra University, School for University Studies and Hofstra University Continuing Education. Hofstra offers six undergraduate degrees in 140 different areas of study. Thirteen graduate degrees are also offered with 155 programs of study to choose from. The University offers three first professional degrees and 16 dual degrees as well.

Hofstra joined with North Shore-LIJ Health System in establishing a medical school on the University campus in October 2007. The

new school, which welcomed its first class in July 2011, is the first allopathic (MD) medical school in Nassau County and the first in New York State since 1963.

On October 16, 2012, Hofstra hosted its second Presidential Debate, held in the “town hall” format, between President Barack Obama and former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney. Hofstra also hosted the third and final presidential debate of the 2008 election cycle, between then Senator Barack Obama and Senator John McCain, on October 15, 2008. The debate was a transformational moment for the University, highlighting the achievements of our students and faculty and their engagement in the political process. Leading up to the first debate, students and the entire community were engaged by the year-long Educate ’08 program – almost 150 lectures, conferences, and events focused on the issues, history and politics of the presidency – followed by Define ’09, which looked at the first year of the Obama presidency. The University continues to host important political events, such as the New York State Gubernatorial Debate in 2010 and a visit from Newark, NJ, Mayor Cory Booker to kick of the Debate 2012 - Pride, Politics & Policy program.

Hofstra opened its School of Engineering and Applied Science in September 2012. The new school features a co-op education program that will partner with a network of industry leaders to offer students substantial work experience before they graduate. The School of Engineering and Applied Science will combine and expand the University’s existing Engineering and Computer Science departments to develop a curriculum that emphasizes high-tech research, practical work experience and inter-disciplinary study,

TRUSTEES/HOFSTRA UNIVERSITY ADMINISTRATION


Jeffrey A. Hathaway is in his third year as the Vice President and Director of Athletics at Hofstra University in 2014-15.

Hofstra University President Stuart Rabinowitz introduced Hathaway, formerly the Director of Athletics at the University of Connecticut and the chairman of the NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Committee, on May 15, 2012.

In his first year at Hofstra, Hathaway oversaw a department that produced four Colonial Athletic Association championship and NCAA Tournament teams, as well as two other teams that reached the conference championship game. In addition, Hofstra Athletics saw three student-athletes earn Academic All-America accolades and five garner CAA Scholar-Athlete of the Year honors. One of those Academic All-Americans, Joe Burg, also was a finalist for a Rhodes Scholarship in 2012, becoming just the second Hofstra student to ever earn the distinction. In 2013-14 Hofstra made two NCAA Tournament appearances (wrestling and softball), two Academic All-District selections, two CAA Players of the Year and two CAA Defensive Players of the Year.

During his two years, more than 500 student-athletes have earned 3.0 grade point averages or better and 26 have posted a perfect 4.0 GPA.

The Pride has not only flourished on the fields and in the classroom, but also in the area of athletic development under Hathaway. The Hofstra Pride Club has enjoyed banner years with more than $1.1 million in cash funds raised in each of the past two years.

Hathaway has also overseen areas of capital improvement with the completion of the Hofstra Basketball Practice Facility this past July as well as the replacement of turf at James M. Shuart Stadium, the Hofstra Soccer Stadium and University Field. Hofstra student-athletes have also participated in more community service endeavors over the past two seasons, earning a pair of awards from Hofstra’s Office of Student Leadership and Activities in 2014 for their service initiatives.

Hofstra student-athletes have increased their community service efforts during Hathaway’s tenure, earning a pair of awards from Hofstra’s Office of Student Leadership and Activities in 2013-14. Pride student-athletes

received the Good Neighbor Award for their work during this year’s Shake-A-Rake initiative, as well as the Community Service Event of the Year for the annual Reading With Pride project.

In 2013 Hathaway was named to the NCAA Division I Leadership Council, continuing his long tradition of service on a national level. He served a five-year term as a member of the prestigious NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Committee, representing the BIG EAST Conference, and was chair of the committee in 2011-12. As a member of the 10-person committee, Hathaway took part in the selection and administration of the NCAA Men’s Basketball Championship and the administration of the CBS/Turner television contract.

During his tenure at both Colorado State and UConn, he was a member of the NCAA Division I Championships/Competition Cabinet. On the conference level, Hathaway was the chair of the BIG EAST Athletic Directors Executive Committee through November of 2009. He is also past chairman of the BIG EAST Championship and Competition Committee as well as the league’s Finance Committee, and also served on the Television Committee. Hathaway is a past member of the Division I-A Athletic Directors Association Board of Trustees and the Executive Committee of the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics (NACDA). In 2004 The Sporting News named Hathaway to its “Power 100 List” - comprised of the 100 most powerful people in sports.

Hathaway guided the University of Connecticut (UConn) Division of Athletics

through an unprecedented period of academic and athletic achievement during his eight years as director of athletics from 2003 to 2011. At the same time, he became an influential leader for college athletics on both the national and conference level.

Hathaway played a vital role in UConn’s success story for nearly 20 years as he was the executive associate director of athletics at the school from 1990 to 2001. In his two years away from the Storrs campus, Hathaway enjoyed a successful tenure as the director of athletics at Colorado State University from 2001 to 2003.

During Hathaway’s career, he has always made the academic success of student-athletes a top priority. In the classroom, more than 50% of UConn’s 650 student-athletes achieved a 3.0 “B-or better” semester grade point average during the spring and/or fall semesters of the 2010 calendar year, including 16 who earned a perfect 4.0 grade point average. In addition, the Division of Athletics consistently maintained a 99 percent academic retention rate among its student-athletes.

The National Consortium for Academics and Sports (NCAS) saluted Connecticut three times under Hathaway’s watch for its community service efforts. UConn was also honored by the NCAS in 2006 and 2007 for its efforts to assist former student-athletes in earning their college degree.

During his time at Connecticut, private fundraising averaged more than $13 million a year. Hathaway was also responsible negotiating several key revenue and partnership agreements, securing major gifts, and guiding the building of two LEED certified athletic facilities, UConn’s first, which received recognition from the

University and from the Connecticut Real Estate Exchange.

Hathaway led a head coaching staff that is one of the most experienced in the country. At the conclusion of Hathaway’s tenure, UConn had 12 head coaches that had been in their current position 10 or more years as of the 2010-11 academic year.

In Hathaway’s final year with UConn, the Huskies experienced great athletic success. The men’s basketball team won its third NCAA Division I Championship while the football team played in the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl. In addition, the women’s basketball team played in the NCAA Final Four for the fourth consecutive season and set a college basketball record for most consecutive wins with 90. The UConn baseball team made history with its first-ever appearance in NCAA Super Regional play. The men’s

soccer, women’s soccer and field hockey teams participated in NCAA tournaments while representatives from men and women’s track and field and women’s diving also took part in NCAA action.

Hathaway originally came to Connecticut in November of 1990 as senior associate athletic director. In that role, he oversaw the day-to-day operations of the division of athletics and served as a program administrator for several sports.

During Hathaway’s tenure at Colorado State, he oversaw a 15-sport program – nine women’s teams and six men’s. Hathaway was an extremely successful fundraiser during his time in Fort Collins. The school drew national attention for a $15.2 million gift for football stadium renovations and expansion.

Prior to joining UConn, Hathaway served in a number of capacities at his alma mater, the University of Maryland, from 1982 to 1990, including assistant athletics director for marketing and communications, acting assistant athletics director for business affairs, athletics business manager and men’s basketball trainer.

Hathaway earned his degree in athletic administration from Maryland in 1981. He later received a master’s degree in general administration from Maryland and is currently continuing work on a PhD in the department of educational leadership at the University of Connecticut.

Hathaway and his wife, Paula, have two children – Meghan (23) and Michael (19).

Opened in 1992, Margiotta Hall, a magnificent three-story, 22,500-square-foot building, is a centerpiece of the Hofstra University Athletics program. The state-of-the-art field house,

combined with Hofstra’s 13,000-seat stadium, has created one of the finest facilities in the nation. The facility was named after Joseph M. Margiotta ’50, a former Pride student-athlete and long-time supporter. Margiotta, who founded and served as President of the Hofstra Pride Club for more than 20 years, passed away in November 2008 Margiotta Hall features a 3,500-square-foot weight room on the first floor. The building also contains locker rooms for men’s lacrosse and women’s lacrosse, all of which have undergone major renovations since 2008.

The state-of-the-art athletic training room, also located on the first floor, has hydrotherapy and electrotherapy areas, cardiovascular and isokinetic equipment, as well as taping areas, a rehabilitation area, an aerobics room, and athletic trainer and physician offices. On the second floor, an attractive multi-purpose room, enclosed by a glass wall, provides a panoramic view of

James M. Shuart Stadium. Meetings and receptions for alumni, parents and friends of the Hofstra Athletic program are held in this area. Located on this level are the offices for the men and women’s lacrosse coaching staffs.

The lacrosse office was the benefit of a major renovation project in 2008. The offices are equipped with video equipment, a 12-seat theater with stadium seating for group film and meeting sessions, as well as a viewing room with hardwood flooring and a 50-inch flat screen television that overlooks the field.

In 2010 Margiotta Hall was the recipient of a “Traditions Project” that provides a sense of history of the lacrosse programs. The walls of the second floor of Margiotta Hall contain pictures and brief text

descriptions of the key moments and people in Hofstra Lacrosse history. The project was made possible through the generosity of former lacrosse All-American James C. Metzger ’83. The lower level of Margiotta Hall contains a 178-seat theater, additional meeting rooms and an indoor golf training facility.

PRACTICE FACILITY

The Pride has use of the Hofstra Indoor Practice Facility that formerly was the property of the New York Jets of the National Football League. The 50-yard turf field gives Hofstra a unique environment that many teams in the Northeast do not have. The practice bubble is located on the North Campus, behind the Mack Sports Complex.

Originally opened in 1963 as Hofstra Stadium and renamed James M. Shuart Stadium in

August 2002, the facility serves as the home to Hofstra’s lacrosse teams.

Named after the former Hofstra President, who played football and lacrosse during his undergraduate days at Hofstra, James M. Shuart Stadium has served as the host for the NCAA Division I Men’s Lacrosse Championship Quarterfinals and first round games in the NCAA Men’s and Women’s Lacrosse Championships, numerous conference championship contests, the Long Island All-Star

Football Game, the Fun City Bowl featuring the New York City Police and Fire Department teams, the Empire Challenge Football Game between Long Island and New York City, and various Long Island high school and New York state championship games. The stadium also served as a home for the Long Island Rough Riders of professional soccer’s A-League.

In addition to Hofstra, the Long Island Lizards of Major League Lacrosse and the New York Cosmos of the North American Soccer League call James M. Shuart Stadium home.

In 1968 the stadium became the third college facility in the nation to install an artificial playing surface. James M. Shuart Stadium underwent a major renovation and expansion that was completed in the fall of 1996, making the facility into one of the premier complexes in the Northeast. The project included the expansion of the seating capacity from 7,000 to 13,000; the creation of the Howdy Myers Pavilion in the southeast corner of the stadium; and the installation of scoreboards in both end zones. The renovation transformed James M. Shuart Stadium into the largest outdoor sports and entertainment complex on Long Island. In 2007 the artificial turf at James M. Shuart Stadium was replaced with FieldTurf, then in 2009 new scoreboards were installed in the north and south end zones. In 2012 the existing FieldTurf was replaced by the new FieldTurf Revolution playing surface.

The largest crowds in James M. Shuart Stadium history occurred during the hosting of the NCAA Lacrosse Quarterfinals. A stadium record of 13,519 people, the largest-ever lacrosse crowd on Long Island, were in attendance for the 2014 NCAA Quarterfinals. A crowd of 13,447 people witnessed the 2011 NCAA Quarterfinals, while 12,292 fans witnessed the 1999 NCAA Quarterfinals featuring Hofstra versus Johns Hopkins. In 2009 11,292 fans were present and 10,510 fans attended the 2001 quarterfinals that featured Hofstra against Syracuse.

Through a comprehensive athletic training program, Hofstra University student-athletes are provided excellent health care during their time at the University. A coordinated effort between

the University Health and Wellness Center, the Athletic Department and outside health care providers ensures every student-athlete the best medical attention possible. University student-athletes have direct access to a myriad of health care services. Managing the coverage of every practice and competition event is Hofstra University’s Athletic Training staff, which is led by Head Athletic Trainer Evan Malings and features six full-time athletic trainers and numerous student athletic trainers. The athletic trainers provide injury management, rehabilitation and treatment to the entire Athletic program. Utilizing three state-of-the-art athletic training rooms, these professionals work tirelessly to ensure the safe participation of Hofstra’s student-athletes and to return injured athletes to play quickly and safely.

Supporting the athletic trainers is team physician Dr. Deena Casiero and team orthopedist Dr. Michael Schwartz and their team at Pro Health Care, Inc. Physical therapists Roger Gerland and Brian Krebs of STARS of North Shore-LIJ Health System also aid in Hofstra’s student-athlete care.

Hofstra University sponsors a fully accredited, highly competitive undergraduate degree program for athletic training majors, in which Hofstra student athletic trainers participate in all aspects of the health care system.

ATHLETIC TRAINING


Hofstra University is committed to the pursuit of academic and athletic excellence. The University views

participation in intercollegiate athletics as benefiting the student-athlete in an educationally enhancing experience beyond any other opportunity available. Hofstra also realizes the time commitment made by student-athletes and has committed the facilities and resources to support all students.

The University Tutorial Program (UTP) provides free tutoring in every subject area to any Hofstra student. Students are able to obtain up to 1 1/2 hours of individual tutorial assistance per week for up to three courses. They are also able to utilize the various help labs on campus, which specialize in providing assistance in writing, business and QM, and biology and chemistry. In addition to this service, student-athletes are assigned an academic advisor, through the Center for University Advisement, who helps address the various needs of student-athletes. The academic advisor emphasizes four areas in their efforts to ensure the academic success of Hofstra’s student-athletes.

Area one is academic counseling. Services are provided in the areas of academic planning, career planning, personal counseling, and campus and community referrals. The advisor also meets with prospective student-athletes, at the coach’s request, to share the many benefits of a Hofstra University education.

Area two is academic advising. The academic advisor serves as the primary advisor for first-year and undecided student-athletes, and also assists upperclassmen who have declared a major.

Area three is academic monitoring. The advisor monitors the academic progress of student-athletes to ensure compliance with Hofstra University, NCAA and conference regulations. The advisor’s regular

communication with the faculty and coaches provide opportunities for early intervention should academic difficulties arise.

Area four is study halls. The University Tutorial Program supports athletic study halls by providing tutors in various subjects as necessary. The academic advisors also assess the needs of individual student-athletes to provide the most effective study environment. The assessment tool administered by the Center for University Advisement is also used to provide various enrichment seminars for the student-athletes such as time management, writing skills, campus resources, and surviving the college transition.

In 2010 The Fried Family Student-Athlete Development Center was opened on the second level of the James M. Shuart Stadium Building. The center houses the offices of the academic advisors as well as the student-athlete services staff. A large computer lab with printer access for use by Hofstra student-athletes, a quiet study area with wireless internet access and two group study/tutor rooms with power point access and white boards are also available.

LONG ISLAND/ NEW YORK CITY


The Colonial Athletic Association, which has built a reputation as one of the nation’s top collegiate conferences

both athletically and academically, celebrates its 30th anniversary in 2014-15.

The CAA encompasses many of the nation’s largest metropolitan areas with a geographic footprint that stretches from Boston to Charleston, S.C. The conference has produced 16 national team champions in five different sports, 33 individual national champions, 13 national players of the year, 12 national coaches of the year and 13 Honda Award winners. Just as impressive, however, are the honors accumulated away from competition, which include five Rhodes Scholars and 24 NCAA post-graduate scholars. In 2013-14, nearly 2,000 of the league’s 4,000 student-athletes received the Commissioner’s Academic Award after posting at least a 3.2 grade point average while lettering in a varsity sport. The conference had 30 teams in 18 different sports receive NCAA Public Recognition Awards based on the latest Academic Progress Report released in 2014.

The landscape of the conference stretches along the majority of the East Coast, and includes several of the nation’s top media markets – New York (1), Philadelphia (4), Boston (7), Washington, D.C. (8) and Baltimore (27). The number of television homes in the CAA market exceeds 19 million.

The CAA conducts championships in 22 sports. Male athletes compete for championships in baseball, basketball, cross country, football, golf, lacrosse, soccer, swimming & diving, tennis and track & field. Female athletes battle for conference titles in basketball, cross country, field hockey, golf, lacrosse, rowing, soccer, softball, swimming & diving, tennis, track & field and volleyball. In 2013-14, 22 teams earned NCAA Tournament berths and 40 student-athletes received All-America honors in 14 different sports.

The conference has made its presence known nationally in men’s basketball with two teams – George Mason (2006) and VCU (2011) – advancing to the NCAA Final Four over the past eight years. CAA teams have combined to win 43 games in postseason play since 2006, including 14 victories in the NCAA Tournament. The CAA has posted at least one NCAA Tournament win in six of the past nine years, including four of the last five. The conference has seen five or more teams reach postseason play in four of the last six seasons.

In women’s basketball, CAA champion James Madison made its ninth consecutive postseason appearance and knocked off Gonzaga in the first round of last year’s NCAA Tournament. In 2013, Delaware became the 12th CAA team to reach the Sweet 16 of the NCAA Tournament and Drexel captured the WNIT championship with a 46-43 victory over Utah. CAA teams have gone 23-12 in postseason play over the past three years.

The conference also excels in many other sports. Three men’s soccer teams earned NCAA Tournament berths last season and each current member of the conference has reached the NCAA Tournament since 2006. A pair of CAA softball teams (Hofstra and James Madison) reached the NCAA’s for the second year in a row and the Pride advanced to the NCAA Super Regionals in 2012. In baseball, College of Charleston became just the fourth No. 4 seed to advance to the NCAA Super Regionals and was the first CAA squad to accomplish that feat since 2001. CAA squads have combined to win 10 field hockey national titles since the championship began in 1981. At least two women’s soccer teams have reached the second round of the NCAA Tournament three times in the past seven years. William & Mary’s women’s cross country squad finished 12th in the 2013 NCAA Championship, while the Tribe men’s team has made the NCAA’s in 12 of the past 15 years. Delaware and Towson have each reached the Final Four of the NCAA Men’s Lacrosse Championship and Drexel advanced to the quarterfinals in 2014. The CAA has had at least 11 players selected in 10 of the last 12 Major League Baseball drafts. The conference also had individuals earn All-America honors in volleyball, track and field and swimming & diving last season and had players nationally ranked in tennis and golf.

CAA member institutions are committed to excellence in the classroom. The Colonial Academic Alliance was created in 2002 by the league’s presidents with a goal of expanding their partnership to all aspects of university education and life outside of intercollegiate athletics. Programs established include an undergraduate research conference, coordination of study abroad programs, visiting faculty programs and a recent partnership with NBC Learn to provide educational videos to over 8,500 public schools across the United States.

CAA schools are also very active in community service projects. The CAA Blood Challenge, which is held each fall, has raised nearly 40,000 units of blood over the past 12 years. The CAA Food Drive Challenge last winter resulted in over 9,500 pounds of donated food and $2,700 in cash.

Commissioner Thomas E. Yeager has guided the CAA since its inception. The conference traces its roots back to 1983 when two of its current members- James Madison University and the College of William and Mary - were aligned with East Carolina University, George Mason University, the United States Naval Academy and the University of Richmond as a basketball league (ECAC South). During the next two years, the league added 11 sports, acquired two new members (the University of North Carolina at Wilmington and American University) and decided to form a new conference. The transformation from ECAC South to CAA took place on June 6, 1985.

Old Dominion University joined the CAA in 1991 and was followed by Virginia Commonwealth University in 1995. The conference added the University of Delaware, Drexel University, Hofstra University and Towson University in 2001. Georgia State University and Northeastern University became members of the conference in 2005. College of Charleston began its first year as a CAA member in 2013 and Elon University joined the conference on July 1, 2014.

The Hofstra Women’s Lacrosse team lends a great deal of time to the Long Island community.

This past holiday season the Pride participated in Holiday Magic, a program that Men’s Lacrosse Coach Seth Tierney initiated while he was at Johns Hopkins and brought with him to Hofstra. The team helped collect, wrap and distribute toys to underprivileged children, providing a bit of joy to those in need.

Hofstra is also actively involved in the fight against blood cancer through the HEADstrong Foundation, which was founded by Nick Colleluori before his passing as a result of Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma. The team has raised awareness and a great deal of funds through the sales of “Relentless” t-shirts and lime green shoelaces. Each year the team hosts the Nick Colleluori Classic at James M. Shuart Stadium. The event features a full-day of games and serves as a fundraiser for the HEADstrong Foundation.

The team has also been involved with Surfer’s Healing, which is an organization that teaches children with autism how to surf, along with other activities. Women’s Lacrosse student-athletes assisted with serving food as well as interacting with the children.

The team has taken part in the Tunnel to Towers Run to benefit the Stephen Siller Foundation. Siller was a firefighter, who lost his life on September 11, 2001. The run follows the path he took from the Brooklyn Battery Tunnel to the Twin Towers that day.

The team is also involved with a variety of initiatives with Hofstra’s Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC), including reading programs at local schools, the Special Olympics, Long Island Cares Holiday food drives, Big Brothers Big Sisters of Long Island Toy and Coat Drives and the Shake-A-Rake event that assists elderly and disabled community members with yard cleanups.

The team has also joined with the Friends of Jaclyn Foundation and is involved with physical fitness programs at local elementary schools, charity walk-a-thons, and cooking and serving meals at a local Ronald McDonald House.

HOFSTRA IN THE COMMUNITY


The team is quite active in the Nick Colleluori HEADstrong Foundation, which was founded by former Pride men’s lacrosse player Nick Colleluori and raises money and awareness for the

treatment of blood cancer. Colleluori started the foundation before succumbing to non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma in 2006.

The seventh annual Nick Colleluori Women’s Lacrosse Classic was held September 27, 2014, at Hofstra University and there were 15 teams in this year’s event as Hofstra, Central Connecticut State, LIU Post, Iona, LIU Brooklyn, Stony Brook, Villanova, New York Athletic Club, Adelphi, Siena, Yale, La Salle, Team HEADstrong, Wagner and Massachusetts-Lowell competed in the all-day tournament.

The Colleluori family was on hand sharing their personal experience and progression of their organization with spectators. During the event teams gathered for the inspirational HEADstrong presentation, in which Cheryl Colleluori addressed the players, recognized the coaches that made the event possible and shared her son’s legacy with all in attendance. The HEADstrong Foundation recognized players from each program with the Nicholas Colleluori Award, presented to a player demonstrating leadership, service and a relentless drive for success on an off the playing field. This year, the HEADstrong Foundation also recognized Hofstra Field Hockey alumnus Jillian Geysen ’13, who was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s Lymphoma in early 2014. The Foundation presented her with a check to help defray her medical expenses as well.

In its seven years of existence, the Nick Colleluori Women’s Lacrosse Classic has raised more than $200,000 for the HEADstrong Foundation.

“We are truly grateful to be so closely related to the HEADstrong Foundation, especially being that Nick was a player here,” said Hofstra Coach Shannon Smith. “Like the Colleluori family, our Pride family will continue carrying on his legacy to do whatever we can do to help people who are battling blood cancers.”
