THIS IS HOFSTRA UNIVERSITY 

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 76-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 50 states 

and territories, and 72 countries around the world. The beautiful campus 

is an accredited arboretum with 115 buildings on 240 acres. There are 

approximately 4,000 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, Frank G. Zarb School of Business, School 

of Communication, School of Education, Health and Human Services, 

School of Law, School for University Studies, Honors College, Hofstra 

University Continuing Education and Hofstra North Shore-LIJ School 

of Medicine at Hofstra University. Bachelor’s degrees are offered in 

about 150 areas of study. Graduate degrees are offered, including Ph.D., 

Ed.D., Psy.D., Au.D., J.D., and M.D. degrees, advanced certificates and 

professional diplomas, in more approximately 160 programs of study. 

Hofstra joined with North Shore-LIJ Health System in announcing plans 

to establish 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. 

In 2011 Hofstra announced that it would launch a School 

of Engineering and Applied Science with a co-op education 

program that will partner with a network of industry leaders 

to offer students substantial work experience before they 

graduate. 

The new school, set to open in September 2012, 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, integrating resources and faculty 

from other parts of the institution, including the Hofstra North 

Shore-LIJ School of Medicine and the Frank G. Zarb School 

of Business. 

Hofstra’s School of Communication is one of the largest, 

most advanced non-commercial television facilities in the 

East. Students take classes and work in Dempster Hall, a 

sophisticated television production/post-production facility 

with two broadcast-quality studios and control rooms; two 

advanced online video edit suites; two Avid non-linear digital 

editing systems and several cuts-only video work stations. Two 

satellite dishes are available with one dish providing special 

news feeds for the broadcast journalism room, which also 

has access to Associated Press, Lexis-Nexis and Dow Jones 

services. In addition, the facility is capable of broadcasting 

student-produced programming to the entire campus on our 

own cable channels. Also located here is the University’s radio 

station (WRHU/88.7-FM), audio production studios, a film/

HEAD COACH KRISTINA HERNANDEZ 

2004 that had won just five matches the 

previous season and immediately doubled 

their win total in her first campaign and 

by her fourth season the team won 22 

matches. That win total was the most for 

the Loyola program since the 1992 squad 

set a school record with 25 victories and 

was the second-most in the Metro Atlantic 

Athletic Conference (MAAC) last season. 

Kristina Hernandez is in her fourth 

season as the head coach of the 

Hofstra Volleyball program. 

Hofstra University Director of Athletics 

Jack Hayes named her to the post on 

March 27, 2008, following a four-year 

stint at Loyola (MD). 

In her three seasons with the Pride, 

Hernandez has recorded a record of 41- 

57. 

In 2010 Hernandez guided an injury-riddled Pride squad to 

10 victories as Hofstra played without the services of Anissa 

Whitney for the entire season and saw Taylor Moore miss the 

majority of the season as well. 

Hernandez saw her 2009 team win 13 matches and battle for a 

spot in the CAA Championship until the final weekend before 

falling just short. Senior Monica Knight led the league in kills 

and was a second team All-CAA selection, while Whitney was a 

third team all-league pick. 

A strong recruiter whose 2007 team 

featured 14 players from seven different 

states, Hernandez guided the Greyhounds 

to 13 conference wins in 2007. It 

marked the most-ever for the program, 

which had never won more than seven 

conference matches in a previous season 

in the MAAC. In fact, the 20 combined 

conference wins over her last two seasons 

for the Greyhounds were more than the 

program had won in the previous six 

seasons combined. 

During the 2007 campaign Loyola 

finished in the top three in the MAAC 

for the first time since 1997 and had three different players earn 

postseason accolades from the conference. With the conference’s 

rookie and setter of the year, as well as an All-MAAC first team 

member and two All-MAAC second team honorees, it was 

the first time since 2002 that Loyola had players named to the 

All-MAAC teams. The team would also set school records for 

winning percentage and consecutive home and road wins. In 

addition, the team established new school marks for kills, assists, 

digs and total blocks in a season (rally scoring format). 

Turning around a program which didn’t have a recent winning 

tradition never seemed to faze Hernandez, who guided Loyola to 

Following a successful first campaign with the Pride, in which 

the team posted and 18-14 mark and earned a spot in the Colonial 

Athletic Association Championship semifinals, Hernandez was 

recognized on a pair of occasions for her work in the volleyball 

community. In February 2009 Hernandez was named an 

inaugural American Volleyball Coaches Association (AVCA) 

“Thirty Under 30” award recipient. The AVCA created this award 

to honor thirty of the up-and-coming volleyball coaches under 

30 years of age in the sport at all levels of the game. Hernandez 

would follow that up in May 2009 when she was named an 

assistant coach with the USA Volleyball Women’s Junior A2 

squad that competed in an international-style competition in July 

in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. 

Hernandez completed a remarkable turnaround of the Loyola 

Greyhound volleyball program as she took over a squad in 

The Hofstra Volleyball Staff 


ack-to-back winning seasons for the first time since the program 

won 12 matches in 1996 and 14 in 1997. 

A 2003 summa cum laude graduate of North Carolina A&T, 

Hernandez played setter for the Aggies, was the team’s rookie 

of the year as a freshman and earned Mid-Eastern Athletic 

Conference (MEAC) All-Academic honors from 2001 to 2003. 

Hernandez has also expanded her coaching horizons away from 

the Hofstra campus. A veteran of the USA Volleyball Summer 

Program, Hernandez has served as a court coach with the USA 

Volleyball High Performance tryout camp in each of the past 

four years. In 2007 she took part in the USA High Performance 

Championships in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, where she served as 

a coach for the USA Youth National A2 team. In 2008 Hernandez 

served as an assistant coach with the USA Volleyball High 

Performance Youth A2 squad in Tucson, Arizona, while in 2009 

she was an assistant with the USA Volleyball Women’s Junior 

A2 squad. In 2010 Hernandez served as the head coach for the 

Women’s Junior Continental Team with USA Volleyball High 

Performance Camps 

In 2004 Hernandez got her first taste of collegiate coaching as she 

was a volunteer assistant coach with the St. Mary’s College (CA) 

volleyball team. 

Also active in the club community, Hernandez was the associate 

club director for the TCA Baltimore Volleyball Club, for which 

she served as the head coach of the 16-1’s team. She began the 

TCA New York club in 2008 and the program now has six teams. 

In addition, after graduating from college Hernandez worked 

as a head coach with the Golden Bear Junior Olympic Club in 

Berkeley, California. 

Hernandez was the MAAC representative on the American 

Volleyball Coaches Association (AVCA) Division I Head 

Coaches Committee in 2006 and 2007. She has also increased her 

knowledge of the sport by serving as an intern in 2003 with USA 

Volleyball and its Beach Volleyball, Disabled, Grassroots and 

Education Program. 

Hernandez is single and resides in Long Beach, New York.

2011 Preview 

With just five returnees and nine newcomers, the 2011 

Hofstra Volleyball team will be short on Division I playing 

experience. But fourth-year Head Coach Kristina Hernandez 

feels that what her team lacks in experience will be made up for with its 

overall talent. 

Hofstra is coming off a 10-24 season a year ago, but the won-loss record 

was skewed due to the absence of Anissa Whitney (Norwood, NJ) and 

Taylor Moore (Redondo Beach, CA) due to injury as both were expected 

to play prominent roles. But both seniors are healthy entering 2011 and, 

along with junior Kylee Maneja (Kapolei, HI) and sophomores Nikki 

Kinnier (Elkton, MD) and Caity DeCoster (Crystal Lake, IL), form a 

solid nucleus to build around. 

Preseason practice will be important as the new players will need to learn 

Hernandez’ system and the team will have to develop chemistry on the 

court in a short period of time. 

“The team has made tremendous progress during the first week of 

preseason camp,” said Hernandez. “We have all of our systems in 

place and the connections with our setters are becoming consistent. 

Even though we have a lot of new faces on the team, they have a lot 

of experience playing at high levels so it has helped us move forward 

quickly. I am excited to see this team compete.” 

OUTSIDE HITTER 

Kinnier will anchor an outside hitting position after leading the Pride 

with 363 kills in 2010, her first full season with the team after missing 

most of the 2009 campaign due to injury. Freshman Kelsie Wills 

(Matamata, New Zealand) will also see a great deal of time at outside 

hitter. A four-time Most Outstanding Player selection at Matamata 

College, Wills was also a member of New Zealand’s U17 and U19 Indoor 

and Beach Volleyball teams. 

Nikki Kinnier 

Fellow freshmen Kainoa Ocasek (Waipahu, HI), Emily Burke (Staten 

Island, NY) and Adama Aja (Columbia, MD) will also be in the mix for 

playing time at outside hitter. Ocasek as an All-Hawaii selection and 

named to the Volleyball Fab 15 Honorable Mention team as a senior at 

University High School. Burke was the Staten Island Player of the Year at 

Wagner High School after averaging 10 kills per set as a senior in 2010. 

Aja was team Most Valuable Player and a two-time conference all-star at 

Seton Keough High School.

HOFSTRA UNIVERSITY DIRECTOR OF ATHLETICS 

JACK HAYES 

Hofstra University Director of Athletics 

Jack Hayes is in his eighth year as director 

of athletics at Hofstra University in 2011- 

12. Hayes was appointed by Hofstra 

President Stuart Rabinowitz as the University’s 

director of athletics on October 4, 2004. Hayes 

came to Hofstra after serving as an associate 

director of athletics at the University of 

Connecticut for three years. 

Hayes, the eighth director of athletics at 

Hofstra, leads a department that includes 17 

Division I teams, 90 coaches and administrative 

staff members and 350 student-athletes. 

Hayes’ proven expertise in enhancing 

academic and athletic success of studentathletes, 

strategic planning, fund-raising, 

marketing, university relations, facility 

enhancement, budgetary management, and 

NCAA compliance complements Hofstra 

University’s athletic department in its quest to 

further enhance its athletic program, and assist 

Hofstra’s student-athletes both on and off the 

field. 

The Hofstra Athletic program has 

flourished under Hayes’ leadership, 

winning 20 CAA Championships and 

making 33 postseason appearances, 

including 25 NCAA Tournaments, 

since the 2004-05 academic year. In 

2010-11 four Pride teams advanced to 

postseason play with women’s soccer 

and men’s lacrosse reaching the NCAA 

Tournament as at-large selections. In 

addition, Hofstra hosted the NCAA 

Men’s Lacrosse Quarterfinals in 2009 

and 2011, setting a James M. Shuart 

Stadium attendance record in 2011. 

Hayes has placed a significant emphasis 

on fund-raising during his tenure. Pride 

Club membership reached all-time 

highs, both in terms of the number of 

contributors and funds raised as the 

organization topped the $1 million 

mark for the three consecutive years. 

In addition, Hofstra Athletics signed its 

largest corporate sponsorship deal in 

department history when it partnered 

with W.B. Mason in 2010. 

Resources generated through fundraising 

efforts have been used to 

enhance programs and facilities 

available to student-athletes. Recent 

initiatives include the construction 

of the W.B. Mason Pride Lounge on 

the lower level of the Mack Sports 

Complex, baseball’s Quinn Family 

Grandstand and the Fried Family Student- 

Athlete Development Center on the second 

floor of the James M. Shuart Stadium Building. 

Other recent renovations include locker rooms, 

the wrestling room, athletic training rooms 

in Margiotta Hall and the Physical Education 

Center, the basketball media room in the Mack 

Sports Complex, a press box at the Hofstra 

Soccer Stadium, replacement of the turf at 

James M. Shuart Stadium and the construction 

of the Hofstra Field Hockey Stadium. 

In 2006 Hayes reintroduced the Hofstra 

Athletics Hall of Fame after more than a 50- 

year absence, inducting five classes since that 

time. He also led an effort to retire the uniform 

numbers of prominent Hofstra student-athletes 

with 20 jersey retirement ceremonies held 

during the 2008-09 academic year. 

Active on a national level, Hayes served on 

the NCAA Division I Lacrosse Committee 

from September 2006 to September 2008. 

In September 2010 he was appointed to the 

NCAA Leadership Council, which is an 

advisory body to the Division I Board of 

Directors. 

Hayes came to Hofstra with more than 14 years 

of athletic administration experience, including 

management positions at four Division I 

institutions – Connecticut, Fordham, St. John’s 

and Fairfield. 

Hayes received a master’s degree in 

education in 1992 with a concentration in 

sport management from the University of 

Connecticut. He holds a bachelor’s degree 

(1989) from Providence College, where he was 

a member of Providence’s lacrosse team. He 

was also awarded a certificate of completion in 

2001 from the Sports Management Institute, 

Consortium of the Universities of Michigan 

and Texas. 

A native of Providence, Rhode Island, Hayes 

graduated from the Providence Country Day 

School where he lettered in football, basketball 

and lacrosse. He was inducted, as a member 

of his high school basketball team, into the 

Providence Country Day Athletic Hall of 

Fame in October 2004. In October 2010 Hayes 

became a two-time member of Providence 

Country Day’s Athletic Hall of Fame when he 

was inducted along with the rest of his high 

school lacrosse team. 

Hayes resides in East Northport, New York, 

with his wife Bridget, daughter Katie (9), and 

sons Matt (6), Tommy (3) and Michael, who 

was born in April 2011.

LONG ISLAND AND NEW YORK CITY 

About Long Island… 

Long Island has a rich history as an active, vibrant community, a summer playground, 

and home to some of New York’s most prominent families. 

Five distinct regions make up Long Island: 

• North Shore, otherwise known as the Gold Coast, with dozens 

of historic sites dating back to colonial days and Gatsby-era 

mansions. 

• South Shore, the Island’s spectator sports and entertainment 

center, with world-famous Jones and Fire Island Beaches, and 

home to the New York Islanders. 

• Central Suffolk, with beautiful forests and natural inlets, the 

world’s largest factory outlet center and a huge water park. 

• North Fork, with an array of vineyards, waterfront ports and farm 

stands. 

• South Fork, widely known as “The Hamptons,” with its pristine 

beaches and exclusive villages. 

You can catch a Hofstra shuttle bus to Jones Beach – a state park with 

six miles of gorgeous coastline, a boardwalk, swimming pools, golf and 

outdoor concerts. 

With everything from : 

• museums, historical sites and lighthouses, 

• to sophisticated malls, designer outlets and shopping villages, 

• to wineries and farm stands, 

• to family fun parks, aquariums and zoos, 

...there is plenty to do on Long Island! 

Hofstra is located only 30 miles from New York City – the capital of culture and finance. You can visit Carnegie Hall, South Street Seaport, 

Hard Rock Café, Grand Central Station, Central Park, NBC Studios in Rockefeller Center, Little Italy or Chinatown. 

About New York City… 

Study the world’s finest sculptures and paintings at the Metropolitan 

Museum of Art. 

Go and cheer along with the crowd at a Yankees, Mets, Rangers or 

Knicks game. 

Wave at the TV cameras in the street-level studios of FOX, CNN, NBC, 

CBS or ABC 

Walk through the financial capital of the world at the New York Stock 

Exchange on Wall Street. 

Take the subway to Coney Island for a Nathan’s hot dog and a ride on 

the Cyclone, the last of the great wooden rollercoasters. 

Get half-priced tickets to Broadway’s finest shows at the TKTS booth in 

a new, glittering Times Square. 


ATHLETIC ACADEMIC SUPPORT 

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 Student-Athlete 

Services Staff, as well as 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. 


SPORTS MEDICINE/ATHLETIC TRAINING 

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 ninth-year 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. Michael 

Yorio. Dr. Yorio, a physician with Pro Health Care, Inc. in Lake 

Success, New York, is in his third year on Hofstra’s medical 

team. Yorio is an internist with specialized training in sports 

medicine. He earned his undergraduate degree at Villanova 

University, and received his medical degree from the SUNY 

Health Science Center in Syracuse. Yorio previously served 

as a sports medicine fellow with the University of Maryland 

Orthopedics. Prior to that, he was a resident physician in internal 

medicine at Carolinas Medical Center in Charlotte, North 

Carolina. 

Yorio was named the Director of Player Medical Services for the 

2008 U.S. Open Tennis Tournament in Flushing, New York, and is 

on the medical staff for the New York Islanders. He also worked 

as a team physician for the University of Maryland from 2003 to 

2005. 

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.

DAVID S. MACK PHYSICAL EDUCATION CENTER 

The Pride Volleyball team calls 

the Hofstra University Volleyball 

Venue at the David S. Mack 

Physical Education Center its home. The 

building, which was called the Physical 

Fitness Center, was renamed in 2010. 

Built in 1970, the Physical Education 

Center has established itself as a showcase 

for volleyball in the metropolitan area. The 

800-seat arena hosted Hofstra’s NCAA 

Tournament first round match in 1995 and 

has hosted regional and national United 

States Volleyball Association events, 

including the 1983 exhibition between 

the United States Olympic team and the 

Japanese Olympic team. Hofstra’s Physical 

Education Center also served as the 1987 

home of the New York Liberties of Major 

League Volleyball and as the training site 

for the 1989 United States Maccabiah 

teams. It also is the home to various high 

school championships. 

The arena was refurbished in 1978 with 

a new ticket lobby and refreshment area. 

In 1991 new scoreboards were added, 

replacing the four-sided scoreboard that 

had served Long Island sports fans at the 

Island Garden in Hempstead and at the 

Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum, 

adjacent to the University. 

The Physical Education Center was 

resurfaced for the second time in 1995 

with a wooden Thrust-A-Pad floor, which 

covers the entire 40,000-square-foot 

building and gives Hofstra the second 

largest indoor wooden facility on the 

East Coast. The floor has been placed 

over the old synthetic surface and adds 

greater flexibility, thereby decreasing the 

chance of leg injuries. The building is also 

outfitted with multiple Senoh Systems, the 

finest volleyball apparatus available. 

After the Mack Sports Complex was 

constructed, the Physical Education 

Center became a volleyball-only venue 

and received a new scoreboard that 

features space for in-match statistics to be 

displayed. The arena was also decorated 

with banners commemorating Hofstra’s 

NCAA Tournament appearances and 

conference championships, and in 2009 

the main court was completely redone, 

including new logos painted on the floor. 

The Physical Education Center has been 

home to five professional teams in its 

existence: The New York Nets (American 

Basketball Association), the New York 

Knicks Summer League team (National 

Basketball Association), the Long Island 

Knights and Surf (United States Basketball 

League) and the New York Liberties 

(Major League Volleyball). In addition, 

the building has hosted concerts, banquets, 

trade shows, conferences, commencement 

exercises and scholastic sporting events 

for the Long Island community. 


FIGHTING SPIRIT AWARD/VOLLEYBALL CAMP 

THE FIGHTING SPIRIT AWARD 

A 

memorial award established by former Head Coach Fran Kalafer in 2005, 

in honor of her mother Ruth Kalafer, The Fighting Spirit Award is given 

annually to a volleyball student-athlete that displays the most “fighting 

spirit” during the course of a season. Kalafer will make a donation, in the name of 

the recipient, to the Leukemia Foundation each year. 

In addition, the team partners with 1 in 9: The Long Island Breast Cancer Coalition 

to host the Spike Out Breast Cancer Volleyball Tournament each spring.

THE COLONIAL ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION 

The Colonial Athletic Association continues to build on its 

reputation as one of the nation’s top collegiate conferences both 

athletically and academically. 

The CAA encompasses five of the nation’s nine largest metropolitan 

areas with a geographic footprint that stretches from Boston to Atlanta. 

The conference has produced 16 national team champions in five 

different sports, 33 individual national champions, 12 national players 

of the year, 12 national coaches of the year and 12 Honda Award 

winners. Just as impressive, however, are the honors accumulated 

away from competition, which include five Rhodes Scholars and 22 

NCAA post-graduate scholars. In 2010-11, more than 1,900 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 21 teams in 12 different 

sports receive NCAA Public Recognition Awards based on the latest 

Academic Progress Report released in 2011. 

The landscape of the conference 

stretches along the majority of the 

East Coast, and includes six of the 

nation’s top 25 media markets – New 

York (1), Philadelphia (4), Boston 

(7), Atlanta (8), Washington, D.C. (9) 

and Baltimore (25). The number of 

television homes in the CAA market 

exceeds 20 million. 

The CAA conducts championships in 

23 sports. Male athletes compete for 

championships in baseball, basketball, 

cross country, football, golf, lacrosse, 

soccer, swimming & diving, tennis, 

track & field and wrestling. 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 

2010-11, 25 teams earned NCAA Tournament berths and 50 studentathletes 

received All-America honors in 13 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 five years. Three CAA 

teams earned NCAA Tournament berths for the first time in 2011 as 

conference champion Old Dominion was joined by VCU and George 

Mason. VCU knocked off USC, Georgetown, Purdue, Florida State and 

top-seeded Kansas, while Mason defeated Villanova. The Rams were 

ranked No. 6 in the final ESPN/USA Today Top 25 poll, which was the 

highest ranking ever for a CAA team. In 2006, George Mason captured 

the nation’s imagination by becoming the first mid-major program since 

1979 to reach the Final Four, posting victories over Michigan State, 

North Carolina, Wichita State and Connecticut along the way. 

Six CAA women’s basketball teams advanced to postseason 

play in 2011. James Madison represented the conference in the 

NCAA Tournament after capturing its second straight conference 

championship. Delaware, Drexel, UNC Wilmington, Old Dominion 

and VCU participated in the WNIT, with the Seahawks advancing to 

the second round. ODU, which won an NCAA-record 17 straight CAA 

titles from 1992-2008, boasts three national championships (1979, 

1980, 1985) and was national runner-up in 1997. 

The conference also excels in many other sports. 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 advanced to 

the second round of the NCAA Tournament in three of the past four 

seasons and William & Mary gave the CAA a team in the final 16 

of the NCAA Men’s Soccer Championship for the sixth time in the 

last nine years. In men’s cross country, William & Mary advanced 

to the NCAA Championship for the 12 th straight year and finished 

19 th overall. In the pool, Towson’s Meredith Budner finished as the 

runner-up in the 500 freestyle and 1650 freestyle at the 2011 NCAA 

Championship and received All-America honors along with George 

Mason’s Ashley Danner. Delaware and Towson have each reached the 

Final Four of the NCAA Men’s Lacrosse Championship in the past 

decade. The CAA has sent multiple teams to the NCAA Baseball 

Championship in nine of the last 14 years and has had at least 12 

players selected in the eight of the last nine Major League Baseball 

drafts. The conference also boasts numerous All-Americans in lacrosse, 

tennis, golf, track and field, women’s lacrosse and wrestling. 

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 life outside of 

intercollegiate athletics. Among the 

programs that have been established are 

an undergraduate research conference, 

coordination of study abroad programs 

and granting visiting academic status 

to student-athletes traveling to an away 

contest so that they have access to libraries, academic resource centers 

and computer labs. 

In 2002, two faculty members from CAA institutions were awarded 

academia’s most coveted distinction – the Nobel Prize. John B. Fenn, 

a research professor in the Department of Chemistry at Virginia 

Commonwealth University, received the Nobel Prize for chemistry, 

and Vernon Smith, a professor of economics and law at George Mason 

University, shared the Nobel Prize in economic sciences. 

Commissioner Thomas E. Yeager has guided the CAA since its 

inception. The conference traces its roots back to 1983 when three 

of its current members- George Mason University, James Madison 

University, and the College of William and Mary - were aligned 

with East Carolina 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 association. The 

transformation from ECAC South to CAA took place on June 6, 1985. 

Charter members George Mason, James Madison, UNC Wilmington 

and William and Mary were joined by Old Dominion University 

in 1991 and 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 on July 1, 2005. 


HOFSTRA IN THE COMMUNITY 

The Hofstra University Volleyball program believes it has a special responsibility to the Long 

Island community. Throughout the academic year, the Hofstra Volleyball staff and studentathletes 

attempt to be highly visible in the area. 

Several times each year, the Pride conduct youth volleyball clinics. These player clinics 

reinforce the fundamentals of the game taught by their own coaches. Hofstra players have 

also been involved with the Special Olympics, which have taken place in past years on the 

Hofstra campus, volunteering at several events and participating in the Opening Ceremonies. 

The Pride also sponsor canned food drives in conjunction with Long Island Harvest to assist 

needy families in the area. 

The Volleyball team is also involved in charitable causes, including the annual Spike Out 

Breast Cancer Tournament held at Hofstra each spring and the Light the Night Walk that 

benefits the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. The team is also involved in hosting the 

Think Pink Volleyball Tournament, a high school event that will take place in the fall. 

Pride volleyball players are active in Hofstra’s Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC) 

and take part in visits to local elementary schools for reading programs, as well as charity 

work with programs such as the Salvation Army and Alex’s Lemonade Stand.
