Hofstra Ready to Compete With the Heavyweights
By Nakeem Grant Hofstra has not been to the Colonial Athletic Association (CAA) tournament since 2012 when they finished second in the CAA with a record of 20-10. Coach John Russo has a lot of confidence, however, that his offense will provide the punch needed to deliver them back to the dance. “We missed the tournament in 2013 and 2014 by half a game,” said Russo. In 2014, they were eliminated on...
Potter’s Pitch: Hofstra CF Was Team MVP
by PJ Potter When it comes to Steven Foster’s play on the field, he is humbled by those closest to him. As a freshman who struggled during the fall league for Hofstra, Foster was not expecting to play much in his first year of Division I baseball. “I had the jitters in the first month and I was doing too much to impress the coaches,” he noted. The speedster out of Sachem North High School in Lake ...
Bradley Camarda Commits to Hofstra
It was a typically cold Spring day on March 31 and when you factor in playing on the frigid east end and against the reigning Long Island Champions in West Islip, it was going to be a tough task for any pitcher. Half Hollow Hills West was faced with replacing Aaron Glickstein, their ace coming off a 10-0 season and with the ink barely dried on his letter of intent to Stony Brook, who had recently ...

Weissheier Brothers Are Making Rooting for Hofstra Very Easy For Their Parents
It’s the seventh inning of a crucial conference game between Hofstra and James Madison University. The Pride’s starting pitcher began the game strong but has began to nibble around the corners too much and walked the lead off hitter to put the tying run at the plate. He has fallen behind the batter 2-0 and the lead is very much in danger. The pitching coach walks over to the bullpen ph...

Hofstra Wins Slug Fest vs NJIT
Photo Credit: Hofstra Athletics It has not been a banner year for Hofstra to this point. But, when they get the offense going they are scary.

Hofstra Loses The Most Wild Game of the 21st Century
Photo Credit: Hofstra Athletics There’s a great saying when it comes to baseball–“you can’t run the clock out.” In juxtaposition to sports like football and basketball, it’s especially poignant because big leads late in baseball games guarantee nothing. Towson learned that the hard way on Sunday. Up 16-3 in the ninth inning, they needed three more outs to walk a...
