Re: Jack Styczynski

Another article on Jack with cause of death included which makes news even more awful. Just shows we truly never know the demons some people face. https://dailyvoice.com/new-york/harrison/obituaries/man-killed-by-metro-north-train-was-lifelong-sports-fan-writer-from-harrison/861306/ Sent from my iPh...

Re: Men's Lacrosse 2023

The other excuse is that the lacrosse world has changed. That's true - we now stink and everybody else does not. I wouldn’t go that far as plenty of other programs who once thrived are facing same struggles, but while there is much more competition now from other schools investing more in sport, th...

womens lax 2023

With Nikki Mennella healthy this would have been an entirely different season. What a devastating loss that's but give us credit for being a really competitive team under adversity. No doubt we would be in much better shape in conference play had Niki not gone down, but we also had some frustrating...

Re: womens lax 2023

This beyond frustrating season continues to get worst with a brutal 17-16 overtime loss to Monmouth that basically ends any realistic hope of making CAA playoffs. Led by 1 and had ball bur Monmouth forced turnover and tied score with 12 seconds left . Then to add further insult to injury we had free...

Re: womens lax 2023

Close game as we lose in O/T 14-13. Nobody knows less about lacrosse then I do but did watch some of this game and I know we fell behind but came back to lead only to let them tie the game. We had a last shot opportunity in regulation but blew it. Some of the goals scored by UCONN were shots right ...

Re: womens lax 2023

Tough loss in tough weather conditions in a game where we could just never get over the hump. If Niki hadn’t gone down I think solid chance we are 2-0 in CAA now instead of 0-2.

Is possible Utah Valley may have hosted that anyway but def would have been unique opportunity either way to punch ticket to NIT semis.

Re: 2023 NIT

I don't disagree with how you're characterizing the season for HU, but whoa, this was not by any stretch a dream SEASON for FDU. They didn't even qualify for the NCAAT. They got there by default. They went 10-6 in one of America's weakest leagues. They lost to 5-23 Hartford, which is an independent...

Re: 2023 NIT

Did I not start what I said by saying this? "It goes without saying that this is merely a consolation tourney and not the goal." I believe I did. But to completely dismiss what this would mean for Hofstra's program - a program that has no D-I NCAA wins and a mere TWO NIT wins (both in 200...

Re: 2023 NIT

IF the students show up big tomorrow, have a great time, tell their friends how much fun it was, and it leads more student interest in future seasons then win or loss it will probably be more beneficial than losing in the first rd of NCAAs would have been (as much as I'm dying to see them back ther...

2023 NIT

Sorry we all wish we were in the NCAA but given a win or wins in the NIT I'LL TAKE THAT ANY DAY OVER A LOSS IN THE NCAA especially a blowout loss which has happened all too often to our CAA representative teams over the years. Just embarrassing! Blowout in ncaa would still mean our many long suffer...

Re: 2023 NIT

With San Diego State's win today, Hofstra will be the last CAA team to play basketball in the 2022-23 season. It would have been cooler to lose in the NCAA Tournament then to win a game or two in the NIT though. I couldn't disagree more with this. When is a loss better then a win in a tourney. This...

Re: 2023 NIT

Obviously, I would rather be in the NCAA than the NIT tournament, but given that we are in the NIT I want to see us make the best of it and go on a run It will create a buzz but more on the local level than the national level We can agree there! Let’s make lemon out of lemonade with this opportunit...

Much rather have a run in the NIT than a one and done in the NCAA...I remember when we beat Nebraska and St. Joe's and then got the home game against ODU...huge buzz for that experience. 1000% disagree, especially with what happened to us in 2020 and how long many Hofstra fans have waited to be par...
