Women's soccer just beat #22 Boston College 4-1 in the first round of the NCAA tournament! Is this the best night in Hofstra history for both team's combined?

Amazing win! Might be biggest in program history considering BC was ranked #22. Next a winnable second round game against Wisconsin, who was 36 in RPI.

Boston College had more shots, 28 to 6, and more shots on goal, 8 to 4, but didn't have any saves. Olivia Vaughn, who was tied for 85th with 9 goals before the NCAA Tournament, had 10 shots of which 4 were on goal.

Hofstra goes to Stanford, who is undefeated and the defending champions. Hopefully the area isn't affected by fires. It's nice to play Wisconsin at a site that isn't near either team. Compare that to Softball, where South Carolina hosted Hofstra's regional, and UNC Greensboro and Liberty were much closer to it than Hofstra was. There was also Hofstra's Softball regional at Florida where the other teams were Florida Atlantic and Florida Gulf Coast.

Congrats to our volleyball team who have clinched a regular season CAA title and #1 seed in the CAA tourney with a 3 set win over Northeastern.

First time being the #1 seed since 2006, per Hofstra Volleyball twitter. WRHU announcers kept saying JMU would be #1 due to have a higher win percentage, I guess someone didn't do their homework with that research.
Huge congrats to the team, and the best part is how young they are.

I said it was a partial rebuilding year earlier and I caught some heat for that. We were picked third preseason. Appleton and Skinner both freshmen were big contributors this year.

Men's soccer lost the CAA title game in penalty kicks. Rough way for the season to end.

This was a typically good Richard Nuthall team. Starts off the season slow as he figures out his rotation and the team gets stronger as the season goes on. He has them well prepared for the CAA tournament. Unfortunately the team doesn't have a strong enough resume to get an at large this year.

Down 61-30 after 3 you'd think we were playing Uconn, not a mediocre America East team... Looks like not much improvement since last year.

The fourth quarter was better to lose 77-49. Brozoski led us with 11 points but shot field goals 3-for-15.
Should Women's Basketball get its own topic? It's a winter sport, not a "fall" sport like the title says.

"Wisconsin vs. Hofstra (November 16, 2018, 7:35 p.m. ET — Laird Q. Cagan Stadium, Stanford, California)

The Badgers and the Pride both outscored their opponents by three goals in the first round of the NCAA tournament, and now these two teams will face each other on Friday in an offensive battle. Leading the way for Hofstra is Jenna Buoncore, Lucy Porter and Sabrina Bryan, each of whom have scored over 20 points this season. Wisconsin also brings a trio of double-digit point-scorers to the match, with Lauren Rice, Dani Rhodes and Cameron Murtha owning 16, 14 and 14 point totals this season, respectively. The winner of this game will compete against the winner of top-ranked Stanford vs. Mississippi on November 18."

The game is at 7:35 P.M. at Stanford. Stanford is 18-0-2 and plays Mississippi (Ole Miss) at 10:05 P.M. The winners play at 4:35 P.M. on Sunday.

Hofstra says https://pac-12.com/live/stanford-university will have video.

We allowed a goal 1:05 in and trail 2-0. The game was supposed to start at 7:35 P.M. but it started about an hour and a half late. The video isn't working. They're 30:47 in.

Video isn’t working because there is no video due to the location change. The game had to be moved off site because of poor air quality from the fires. The team toured San Francisco yesterday and had to wear masks so they didn’t breathe in the smoke.

Hofstra lost 6-0. Santa Clara, the 3 seed in another region, lost penalty kicks, leaving all of the last 16 from the top six conferences, so no mid-majors went farther than us. The ACC has 7 teams, the Big East has 1, the Pac-12 has 3, the Big 12 has 1, the Big Ten has 2, and the SEC has 2.

Volleyball beat Towson 3-2 to advance to the championship game tomorrow!

Congrats to the volleyball team on their CAA championship

The score has 3-2. The last set was 15-10. http://stats.statbroadcast.com/statmonitr/?id=235108 has statistics.

So we get 2 CAA championships this fall. we almost had a third but mens soccer came a shootout short of the third. Kudos to all the teams players and coaches for a great fall season.
