Senior Reflections<br />
Elizabeth Zorovich<br />
I chose to attend Hofstra<br />
University because it<br />
offered me the opportunity<br />
to excel academically and<br />
athletically. Hofstra gave<br />
me the chance to explore<br />
my academic passions<br />
that have helped me to<br />
gain the experience I will<br />
need for my future career.<br />
My athletic experiences<br />
have taught me how to<br />
be strong, dedicated and<br />
confident. I have gained a<br />
great deal of knowledge<br />
and strength from my four years of being a student-athlete at<br />
Hofstra University but what I will remember most are the lifelong<br />
friendships I have made and the supportive efforts from my<br />
family and others that have helped me along the way.<br />
Jaclyn Pandolf<br />
Playing for the Hofstra<br />
Women’s Lacrosse<br />
team has created<br />
unforgettable memories<br />
for me. I have learned<br />
what it really means<br />
to be a part of a team<br />
and how far hard work<br />
and dedication can go.<br />
I may not remember<br />
all of the scores of<br />
the games that I’ve<br />
played, but I will<br />
always remember the<br />
teammates that were<br />
beside me. I am expecting nothing but great things out of this<br />
<strong>2012</strong> season and I am planning to end my lacrosse career with a<br />
CAA championship.<br />
Chrissy Jones<br />
I chose to attend Hofstra<br />
because I felt it was a<br />
place where I could enjoy<br />
my college experience,<br />
and grow and excel as<br />
a student-athlete. The<br />
challenges and adventures I<br />
have endured through both<br />
lacrosse and academics<br />
have helped shape me into<br />
the person I am today. As a<br />
senior I am grateful for the<br />
unforgettable experiences<br />
and all the friends I have<br />
made along the way.<br />

Head Coach Abby Morgan<br />
Abby Morgan, a<br />
three-year assistant<br />
coach for the Pride,<br />
became the eighth women’s<br />
lacrosse coach in school<br />
history on August 7, 2006. In<br />
her first season at the helm,<br />
she led her team to a 12-7<br />
overall record, a 6-1 Colonial<br />
Athletic Association (CAA)<br />
mark, the team’s first CAA<br />
championship and its secondever<br />
NCAA Tournament<br />
appearance. Morgan brings a<br />
47-38 career record into her<br />
sixth season at the helm in<br />
<strong>2012</strong>.<br />
Hofstra is <strong>com</strong>ing off a<br />
2011 season that could be<br />
categorized as rebuilding. The Pride posted a 6-10 record and was 2-5 in<br />
the CAA. Senior Katie Hertsch and sophomore Jill Maier were All-CAA<br />
selections and the team once again excelled in the classroom, earning<br />
IWLCA Academic Squad accolades.<br />
The 2010 season saw Morgan lead her team to a 12-6 record and advance<br />
to the CAA title game. The team was ranked 15th in the final IWLCA<br />
Poll, the highest final ranking in program history. In addition, Morgan<br />
coached then-senior Corrine Gandolfi to her second All-America honor<br />
is as many seasons and also saw rising junior Hertsch earn a spot on<br />
the United States Women’s Senior National Team. Statistically, the team<br />
led the CAA in goals, assists and points per game and ranked eighth<br />
in the nation in draw controls. In the classroom Morgan saw her team<br />
earn IWLCA Merit Squad honors and boast the top team GPA in all of<br />
Division I women’s Lacrosse.<br />
Morgan guided Hofstra to a 10-6 overall record in 2009, and the team<br />
was recognized nationally by earning IWLCA Merit Squad honors for<br />
having one of the top three cumulative grade point averages nationally.<br />
In addition, Morgan assisted in the development of Corrine Gandolfi,<br />
who became just the seventh player in program history to earn All-<br />
American honors.<br />
In 2008 Hofstra <strong>com</strong>piled a 7-9 overall record and a 4-3 mark in the<br />
CAA. Hofstra finished in a tie for fourth in the conference and beat two<br />
squads ranked in the top 20 during the season. In addition, the Pride<br />
had four players named to postseason All-CAA teams, including two<br />
members of<br />
the All-CAA<br />
first team.<br />
The Pride<br />
was ranked<br />
16th in the<br />
final IWLCA<br />
Poll of the<br />
2007 season,<br />
which was,<br />
at the time,<br />
the team’s<br />
highest final<br />
ranking in<br />
program<br />
history.<br />
Morgan also<br />
saw one<br />
of her star<br />
players, Kimberly Hillier, named a third team All-American<br />
and get selected to play on the United States Developmental<br />
Team. The 2007 squad finished the year ranked 22nd in<br />
winning percentage (.632) and was 23rd in the nation in<br />
scoring defense (10.16 GAPG).<br />
Morgan joined the Hofstra staff at the start of the 2003-04<br />
academic year after a two-year stint as the top assistant at<br />
Monmouth University in West Long Branch, New Jersey.<br />
Since Morgan’s arrival the Pride has totaled 74 wins. In<br />
addition, Hofstra made three straight appearances in the<br />

In Morgan’s first year as head coach, she launched her own <strong>com</strong>pany<br />
called InCrease Lacrosse Camps, Inc. The <strong>com</strong>pany provides quality<br />
lacrosse instruction and <strong>com</strong>petition for girls of all ages. InCrease<br />
Lacrosse offers various clinics and camps throughout the year that<br />
introduce the game to new<strong>com</strong>ers and advance players to the next<br />
level. Through her work with InCrease Lacrosse, Morgan is continually<br />
developing youth lacrosse on Long Island while promoting Hofstra to the<br />
local <strong>com</strong>munity.<br />
At Monmouth she helped guide the Hawks to Northeast Conference<br />
regular season first and second place finishes in 2002 and 2003,<br />
respectively. Morgan was responsible for developing the attack at<br />
Monmouth, and mentored four All-NEC attackers and five All-NEC<br />
midfielders during her tenure. Morgan was also the team’s academic<br />
advisor and facilitated fund-raising efforts for the Hawks.<br />
CAA championship game from 2005 to 2007 and was ranked<br />
nationally at the conclusion of five of the last seven seasons.<br />
Under Morgan’s tutelage, 16 Pride student-athletes have earned CAA<br />
postseason honors, and four members of the program have garnered<br />
All-America accolades. Morgan has coached four of the greatest<br />
players in school history in Hillier, Becky Thorn, Casey McGrath<br />
and Corrine Gandolfi. Hillier and Gandolfi (twice) and Thorn were<br />
each All-Americans, while the four players earned All-CAA honors<br />
13 times between them. The group <strong>com</strong>bined to score 561 goals and<br />
rank two through five on the career goals list, and are in the top six in<br />
career points. Hillier’s 73 points in 2006 is tied for the school record,<br />
as are her 82 career assists, while Thorn graduated as Hofstra’s alltime<br />
leader in draw controls.<br />
As an assistant coach, Morgan worked with the Hofstra defense, as<br />
well as serving as recruiting coordinator. Under her tutelage in 2005<br />
the Pride ranked ninth in the NCAA in caused turnovers and All-<br />
American defender Bridget Eder led the nation in caused turnovers<br />
and was 11th in ground balls. Hofstra’s goalkeepers also fared well<br />
under Morgan’s direction as Maisie Osteen was sixth in the nation in<br />
goals against average, while Lisa Papa ranked 19th in save percentage.<br />
In 2004 the<br />
Pride ranked<br />
10th in the<br />
NCAA in<br />
ground balls<br />
per game,<br />
and Eder led<br />
the nation in<br />
ground balls<br />
and was 11th<br />
in caused<br />
turnovers and<br />
draw controls,<br />
while Papa<br />

18th in the<br />
nation in<br />
goals against<br />

the Huskies in scoring as a freshman and was third during her sophomore<br />
year. She finished her junior year eighth in the nation in assists and<br />

<strong>2012</strong> Outlook<br />
Coming off a 6-10 season in 2011, Hofstra Women’s Lacrosse<br />
Coach Abby Morgan is looking for a turnaround in <strong>2012</strong>. With<br />
19 players returning from that squad, including seven of the top<br />
eight scorers as well as a goalkeeper that led the CAA in saves and save<br />
percentage, the Pride possess both the experience and talent to rebound<br />
from an off year.<br />
Attack<br />
Junior Claire<br />
Brady and<br />
sophomore<br />
Claire Brady<br />
Lindsay McKinnon<br />
return to anchor<br />
the attack. Brady<br />
started 10 of 14<br />
games last season<br />
and ranked third on<br />
the team in scoring<br />
with 15 goals and<br />
a team-high 17<br />
assists. Brady has<br />
been a consistent<br />
distributor of the<br />
ball in her first<br />
two seasons (15<br />
assists as a freshman) and has upped her goal scoring in each of her first<br />
two seasons (six goals in 2010 to 15 in 2011). McKinnon was a pleasant<br />
surprise as a freshman, scoring 12 goals and adding five assists. She was<br />
fourth on the team in goals scored and had arguable the biggest goal of<br />
the season for the Pride when she scored the game-winner versus #17<br />
Notre Dame with eight seconds left in the second half. Both Brady and<br />
McKinnon will need to continue their offensive production in <strong>2012</strong>.<br />
Sophomore Jenn Ward, who played in all 16 games last season, will also<br />
play an important role on the Pride attack after tallying 15 goals and four<br />
assists in 2011.Ward was a Colonial Athletic Association All-Rookie<br />
selection last season and her versatility may allow her to slide into a<br />
midfielder role as well. Juniors Taylor Albright, Lauren Chandler and<br />
Jacquelyn Ardolino, and sophomore Julia Riemer will also fill valuable<br />
roles at attack. Albright made seven starts and played in 13 games as a<br />
sophomore and contributed three goals and an assist, while Chandler had<br />
Lindsay McKinnon<br />
one goal and one assist in 11 contests. Ardolino will provide an offensive<br />
jolt as evidenced by her 12 goals and an assist in 2011 before a seasonending<br />
knee injury.<br />
Sophomore Callahan Foley and freshman Kaitlin Ayres will provide<br />
added depth at the position. Foley made one appearance for the Pride<br />
last season, while Ayres <strong>com</strong>es to Hofstra from Bethlehem Central High<br />
School in upstate New York where she was the team’s Offensive Most<br />
Valuable Player a year ago.<br />
Midfield<br />
Jill Maier<br />
Hofstra’s midfield may<br />
be the deepest and most<br />
talented unit on the team<br />
led by All-CAA selection<br />
Jill Maier. The junior<br />
led Hofstra in scoring in<br />
2011 with 37 goals and<br />
three assists for 40 points.<br />
She was also a catalyst<br />
for the Pride offense as<br />
she led the team with 43<br />
draw controls. In her first<br />
year as Hofstra’s primary<br />
offensive threat, Maier<br />
showed she was up to<br />
the task as she upped her<br />
scoring by 15 goals from<br />
her freshman season.<br />
Classmate Casey Kellogg<br />
started 10 of her 16 games<br />
last season and plays a<br />
key role as a defensiveminded<br />
midfielder. She<br />
did contribute on the offensive end with three goals and an assist and<br />
showed as a freshman<br />
(nine goals) that she is a<br />
capable scorer as well.<br />
Senior Maryann Miller<br />
and sophomore Alex<br />
Mezzanotte also return<br />
to midfield roles. Miller,<br />
who had missed the entire<br />
2010 season, worked<br />
her way back into form<br />
in 2011 and finished the<br />
year with eight goals and<br />
five assists. Mezzanotte<br />
had an impressive rookie<br />
campaign as she recorded<br />
six goals and 10 assists<br />
for 16 points. The 10<br />
assists tied her for second<br />
on the team. She also<br />
added 15 ground balls,<br />
Casey Kellogg<br />
10 Hofstra University
which is second among returning players. Both Miller and Mezzanotte<br />
are expected to have even bigger roles this season.<br />
Junior Emily von Hollen and sophomore Liz Anders are two other<br />
returnees who will be relied on in <strong>2012</strong>. Von Hollen scored one goal in<br />
six games, while Anders was a consistent presence in the Pride rotation<br />
as a freshman with six starts in her 16 games played. Anders provided<br />
two goals on the year and also added eight draw controls.<br />
Freshmen April Iannetta, Brittain Altomare and Sam Lenox were each<br />
impressive during fall practice and are in line for playing time as well.<br />
Iannetta was an All-Nassau County selection at Wantagh High School<br />
on Long Island, while Altomare scored 247 goals and added 95 assists<br />
during her four-year scholastic career at Middletown High School in<br />
Maryland. Lenox was an All-American during her senior campaign at<br />
Queen Anne’s County High School in Maryland.<br />
Defense<br />
The Pride defense is a mixture of experience and youth, and following<br />
the graduation of seniors Katie Hertsch and Bettina Mianulli; Coach<br />
Morgan will look for someone to claim a leadership role on the unit.<br />
The leading contender to take on that role is senior Elizabeth Zorovich,<br />
who started 11 of 16 games last season and has played in 34 games<br />
during her Pride career. In 2011 Zorovich picked up 13 ground balls and<br />
had six draw controls and two caused turnovers.<br />
Sophomore Jamie D’Arco also returns and will move into a more<br />
prominent role following her stellar play in the fall. As a freshman,<br />
D’Arco played in 11 games with one start and had three ground balls.<br />
Sophomore transfer Jac Tierney is also in line for playing time after an<br />
impressive showing during the fall. Tierney, who played scholastically<br />
at Massapequa High School on Long Island, recorded two goals, five<br />
assists, 33 ground balls and 19 caused turnovers at Lenoir-Rhyne<br />
University last season. Freshman Abby Wilson’s play also caught the eye<br />
of the coaching staff in the fall and the former scholastic star at The John<br />
Carroll School in Maryland should see significant playing time in <strong>2012</strong>.<br />
Elizabeth<br />
Zorovich<br />
Seniors Chrissy<br />
Jones and<br />
Genna Kovar<br />
will also be<br />
looking for<br />
playing time.<br />
Jones played<br />
in 14 games<br />
as a junior and<br />
contributed 10<br />
ground balls.<br />
Kovar is in her<br />
first season<br />
of playing<br />
lacrosse after<br />
a stellar career<br />
on the Pride field hockey team. A gifted natural athlete, Kovar is quickly<br />
learning the game and could be an added weapon for Coach Morgan this<br />
season.<br />
Sophomore Samantha Greiber, who played in four games last season, is<br />
recovering from offseason surgery and could potentially return during<br />
the season. Another returnee who will miss the year is junior Emily<br />
Corzel, who played in all 16 games and started 14 last season.<br />
Goalkeeper<br />
Senior Jaclyn Pandolf played every minute of every game last season<br />
and posted a 10.17 goals against average, 159 saves and a .491 save<br />
percentage. Her 159 saves and .491 percentage led the CAA, while her<br />
10.17 goals against average was fifth in the league. Pandolf is capable of<br />
keeping the Pride in any contest as she posted 10 or more saves in 10 of<br />
the Pride’s 16 games last season.<br />
Freshman Kelsey Gregerson will serve as Pandolf’s understudy and<br />
impressed the coaching staff in the fall that she will push for time.<br />
Gregerson was an All-Nassau County pick as a senior at South Side High<br />
School on Long Island and was one of the top 50 players on Long Island<br />
as selected by MSG Varsity.<br />
Schedule<br />
Hofstra’s non-conference slate is littered with plenty of quality<br />
opponents as the nine teams <strong>com</strong>bined for 100 victories and a winning<br />
percentage of 62%. In addition, of the nine non-conference opponents,<br />
eight had winning records,<br />
led by Maryland’s 21-2<br />
mark in 2011.<br />
The Pride open the<br />
season with a threegame<br />
road trip, starting<br />
with the contest at<br />
Colgate. Following<br />
that game Hofstra will<br />
close the month of<br />
February with games<br />
at Fairfield (February<br />
22) and Boston College<br />
(February 25). The Stags<br />
and the Eagles each had<br />
successful seasons a year<br />
ago as they won 13 and 12<br />
games, respectively.<br />
Jaclyn Pandolf<br />
There will be plenty of excitement surrounding Hofstra’s home opener in<br />
<strong>2012</strong> as the Maryland Terrapins visit James M. Shuart Stadium on March<br />
4. Maryland was the national runner-up a season ago after winning the<br />
national title in 2010.<br />
The Pride also have a trip to California in March, playing a neutral site<br />
game against Denver in Berkeley on March 23 before meeting up the Cal<br />
two days later.<br />
Hofstra’s CAA slate will be challenging as always. This season the Pride<br />
play at defending champion James Madison, Towson, George Mason and<br />
Drexel, while hosting Delaware, George Mason and William & Mary.<br />

24 Hofstra University
This is Hofstra University<br />
Hofstra University provides a dynamic college experience tailored<br />
for engaged and ambitious individuals. Students find pride<br />
and purpose at Hofstra, through small classes, a faculty whose<br />
primary concern is teaching, cutting edge technology, extensive library<br />
resources, internships, and active and <strong>com</strong>pelling educational programs<br />
that appeal to their interests and abilities. The Hofstra <strong>com</strong>munity is<br />
driven, dynamic and energetic, helping students find and focus their<br />
strengths to prepare them for a successful future.<br />
In its relatively short 76-year history, Hofstra has established itself as a<br />
world-class institution of higher education and cultural enterprise. Each<br />
academic year, the Hofstra campus and the programs offered grow and<br />
change to meet the demands of our students and our <strong>com</strong>munity.<br />
Hofstra opened in 1935 as a <strong>com</strong>muter school with all classes and offices<br />
housed in one building. Since those early days, Hofstra has evolved into<br />
an international institution with a student body hailing from 50 states<br />
and territories, and 72 countries around the world. The beautiful campus<br />
is an accredited arboretum with 115 buildings on 240 acres. There are<br />
approximately 4,000 students living on campus, and Hofstra offers them<br />
and all students an extensive array of academic and social activities.<br />
Additionally, Hofstra’s close proximity to Manhattan means that students<br />
have easy access to the wondrous cultural, social and career offerings of<br />
the city.<br />
While the campus and its offerings have changed, what has remained<br />
consistent throughout the years is the sense of <strong>com</strong>munity on campus,<br />
the eagerness of our students to learn and the <strong>com</strong>mitment of the Hofstra<br />
faculty and administration to provide a challenging education that<br />
encourages the pursuit of lifelong learning.<br />
The Colleges and Schools of the University are: Hofstra College of<br />
Liberal Arts and Sciences, Frank G. Zarb School of Business, School<br />
of Communication, School of Education, Health and Human Services,<br />
Maurice A. Deane School of Law, School for University Studies, Honors<br />
College, Hofstra University Continuing Education and Hofstra North<br />
Shore-LIJ School of Medicine at Hofstra University. Bachelor’s degrees<br />
are offered in about 150 areas of study. Graduate degrees are offered,<br />
including Ph.D., Ed.D., Psy.D., Au.D., J.D., and M.D. degrees, advanced<br />
certificates and professional diplomas, in more approximately 160<br />
programs of study.<br />
Hofstra joined with North Shore-LIJ Health System in announcing plans<br />
to establish a medical school on the University campus in October 2007.<br />
The new school, which wel<strong>com</strong>ed its first class in July 2011, is the first<br />
allopathic (MD) medical school in Nassau County and the first in New<br />
York State since 1963.<br />
In October 2011 the Commission on Presidential Debates announced<br />
that it had chosen Hofstra University for the site of its October 16,<br />
<strong>2012</strong> Presidential Debate, which will be in the “town meeting” format.<br />
The Commission on Presidential Debates, a nonprofit, nonpartisan<br />
corporation, has sponsored and produced every presidential and vicepresidential<br />
debate since 1988. Hofstra University hosted the third and<br />
final presidential debate of the 2008 election cycle, between then Senator<br />
Barack Obama and Senator John McCain, on October 15,<br />
2008.<br />
In 2011 Hofstra announced that it would launch a School<br />
of Engineering and Applied Science with a co-op education<br />
program that will partner with a network of industry leaders to<br />
offer students substantial work experience before they graduate.<br />
The new school, set to open in September <strong>2012</strong>, will <strong>com</strong>bine<br />
and expand the University’s existing Engineering and<br />
Computer Science departments to develop a curriculum that<br />
emphasizes high-tech research, practical work experience<br />
and inter-disciplinary study, integrating resources and faculty<br />
from other parts of the institution, including the Hofstra North<br />
Shore-LIJ School of Medicine and the Frank G. Zarb School<br />
of Business.<br />
Hofstra’s School of Communication is one of the largest,<br />
most advanced non-<strong>com</strong>mercial television facilities in the<br />
East. Students take classes and work in Dempster Hall, a<br />
sophisticated television production/post-production facility<br />
with two broadcast-quality studios and control rooms; two<br />
advanced online video edit suites; two Avid non-linear digital<br />
editing systems and several cuts-only video work stations. Two<br />
satellite dishes are available with one dish providing special<br />
news feeds for the broadcast journalism room, which also<br />
has access to Associated Press, Lexis-Nexis and Dow Jones<br />
services. In addition, the facility is capable of broadcasting<br />
26 Hofstra University
student-produced programming to the entire campus on our own<br />
cable channels. Also located here is the University’s radio station<br />
(WRHU/88.7-FM), audio production studios, a film/video screening<br />
room, film editing rooms, a <strong>com</strong>puter laboratory, a speech performance<br />
studio and a large dance studio.<br />
Hofstra’s C.V. Starr Hall offers academic facilities that are among<br />
the most technologically advanced in the nation. Every seat in every<br />
classroom allows students direct access to the Internet and Hofstra<br />
network, including the resources of Hofstra’s Axinn Library.<br />
Hofstra’s growing <strong>com</strong>puter facilities offer extensive high-tech training<br />
opportunities. There are <strong>com</strong>puter terminals throughout the campus for<br />
student and faculty use, with more than 750 PC, Macintosh and UNIX<br />
workstations available in labs and classrooms.<br />
Hofstra hosts more than 500 cultural events annually, bringing<br />
thousands of scholars, dignitaries and other participants to campus.<br />
More than 200 musical and dramatic performances take place on<br />
campus each year. The University recently <strong>com</strong>pleted a year-long<br />
celebration of its 75th anniversary, <strong>com</strong>plete with a concert, academic<br />
convocation and cake, several conferences and signature events<br />
which brought together students, faculty, alumni and <strong>com</strong>munity.<br />
In October 2008 the eyes of the world were on Hofstra for the final<br />
presidential debate between Barack Obama and John McCain. The<br />
debate was a transformational moment for the University, highlighting<br />
the achievements of our students and faculty and their engagement in<br />
the political process. Leading up to the debate, students and the entire<br />
<strong>com</strong>munity were engaged by the year-long Educate ’08 program,<br />
almost 150 lectures, conferences, and events focused on the issues,<br />
history and politics of the presidency, followed by Define ’09, which<br />
looked at the first year of his presidency. The University continues to<br />
host important political events, such as<br />
the New York State Gubernatorial Debate<br />
in 2010.<br />
The Hofstra Museum, which houses<br />
one of the largest art collections in<br />
the metropolitan area, coordinates<br />
approximately eight exhibitions annually<br />
and offers exhibition areas and an<br />
extensive outdoor sculpture collection,<br />
with 75 pieces. The Hofstra Museum is<br />
accredited by the American Association of<br />
Museums – one of only 94 universities in<br />
the nation and one of six in New York to<br />
hold that distinction.<br />
Hofstra also has six theaters, a student<br />
newspaper, a lively student center, a<br />
recently renovated recreation center and<br />
numerous athletic facilities, including the<br />
13,000-seat James M. Shuart Stadium<br />
and the 5,046-seat David S. Mack Sports<br />
and Exhibition Complex. Hofstra also<br />
has an indoor, Olympic-sized (eight lane,<br />
50-meter) swimming pool, one of the<br />
largest such facilities in the New York<br />
metropolitan area.<br />

Hofstra University Director of Athletics<br />
JACK HAYES<br />
Hofstra University Director of Athletics<br />
Jack Hayes is in his eighth year as director<br />
of athletics at Hofstra University in 2011-<br />
12. Hayes was appointed by Hofstra<br />
President Stuart Rabinowitz as the University’s<br />
director of athletics on October 4, 2004. Hayes<br />
came to Hofstra after serving as an associate<br />
director of athletics at the University of<br />
Connecticut for three years.<br />
Hayes, the eighth director of athletics at<br />
Hofstra, leads a department that includes 17<br />
Division I teams, 90 coaches and administrative<br />
staff members and 350 student-athletes.<br />
Hayes’ proven expertise in enhancing academic<br />
and athletic success of student-athletes,<br />
strategic planning, fund-raising, marketing,<br />
university relations, facility enhancement,<br />
budgetary management, and NCAA <strong>com</strong>pliance<br />
<strong>com</strong>plements Hofstra University’s athletic<br />
department in its quest to further enhance its<br />
athletic program, and assist Hofstra’s studentathletes<br />
both on and off the field.<br />
The Hofstra Athletic program has<br />
flourished under Hayes’ leadership,<br />
winning 20 CAA Championships and<br />
making 33 postseason appearances,<br />
including 25 NCAA Tournaments, since<br />
the 2004-05 academic year. In 2010-11<br />
four Pride teams advanced to postseason<br />
play with women’s soccer and men’s<br />
lacrosse reaching the NCAA Tournament<br />
as at-large selections. In addition, Hofstra<br />
hosted the NCAA Men’s Lacrosse<br />
Quarterfinals in 2009 and 2011, setting<br />
a James M. Shuart Stadium attendance<br />
record in 2011.<br />
Hayes has placed a significant emphasis<br />
on fund-raising during his tenure. Pride<br />
Club membership reached all-time<br />
highs, both in terms of the number of<br />
contributors and funds raised as the<br />
organization topped the $1 million<br />
mark for the three consecutive years.<br />
In addition, Hofstra Athletics signed its<br />
largest corporate sponsorship deal in<br />
department history when it partnered<br />
with W.B. Mason in 2010. In 2011<br />
Hofstra announced a 1.5 million dollar<br />
<strong>com</strong>mitment from lacrosse alumnus<br />
James C. Metzger ’83, the largest gift in<br />
Hofstra Athletics history.<br />
Resources generated through fundraising<br />
efforts have been used to enhance<br />
programs and facilities available to<br />
student-athletes. Recent initiatives<br />
include the construction of the W.B. Mason<br />
Pride Lounge on the lower level of the Mack<br />
Sports Complex, baseball’s Quinn Family<br />
Grandstand and the Fried Family Student-<br />
Athlete Development Center on the second<br />
floor of the James M. Shuart Stadium Building.<br />
Other recent renovations include locker rooms,<br />
the wrestling room, athletic training rooms<br />
in Margiotta Hall and the Physical Education<br />
Center, the basketball media room in the Mack<br />
Sports Complex, a press box at the Hofstra<br />
Soccer Stadium, replacement of the turf at<br />
James M. Shuart Stadium and the construction<br />
of the Hofstra Field Hockey Stadium.<br />
In 2006 Hayes reintroduced the Hofstra<br />
Athletics Hall of Fame after more than a 50-<br />
year absence, inducting five classes since that<br />
time. He also led an effort to retire the uniform<br />
numbers of prominent Hofstra student-athletes<br />
with 20 jersey retirement ceremonies held<br />
during the 2008-09 academic year.<br />
Active on a national level, Hayes served on<br />
the NCAA Division I Lacrosse Committee<br />
from September 2006 to September 2008. In<br />
September 2010 he was appointed to the NCAA<br />
Leadership Council, which is an advisory body<br />
to the Division I Board of Directors.<br />
Hayes came to Hofstra with more than 14 years<br />
of athletic administration experience, including<br />
management positions at four Division I<br />
institutions – Connecticut, Fordham, St. John’s<br />
and Fairfield.<br />
Hayes received a master’s degree in<br />
education in 1992 with a concentration in<br />
sport management from the University of<br />
Connecticut. He holds a bachelor’s degree<br />
(1989) from Providence College, where he was<br />
a member of Providence’s lacrosse team. He<br />
was also awarded a certificate of <strong>com</strong>pletion in<br />
2001 from the Sports Management Institute,<br />
Consortium of the Universities of Michigan<br />
and Texas.<br />
A native of Providence, Rhode Island, Hayes<br />
graduated from the Providence Country Day<br />
School where he lettered in football, basketball<br />
and lacrosse. He was inducted, as a member<br />
of his high school basketball team, into the<br />
Providence Country Day Athletic Hall of<br />
Fame in October 2004. In October 2010 Hayes<br />
became a two-time member of Providence<br />
Country Day’s Athletic Hall of Fame when he<br />
was inducted along with the rest of his high<br />
school lacrosse team.<br />
Hayes resides in East Northport, New York,<br />
with his wife Bridget, daughter Katie (9), and<br />
sons Matt (6), Tommy (3) and Michael (1).<br />

Margiotta Hall<br />
Opened in 1992, Margiotta Hall,<br />
a magnificent three-story,<br />
22,500-square-foot building, is a<br />
centerpiece of the Hofstra University Athletics<br />
program. The state-of-the-art field house,<br />
<strong>com</strong>bined with Hofstra’s 13,000-seat stadium,<br />
has created one of the finest lacrosse facilities<br />
in the nation. The facility was named after<br />
Joseph M. Margiotta ’50, a former Pride<br />
student-athlete and long-time supporter.<br />
Margiotta, who founded and served as<br />
President of the Hofstra Pride Club for more<br />
than 20 years, passed away in November 2008<br />
Margiotta Hall features a 3,500-square-foot<br />
weight room on the first floor. The building<br />
also contains locker rooms for men’s lacrosse<br />
and women’s lacrosse, all of which have<br />
undergone major renovations since 2008.<br />
The state-of-the-art athletic training room,<br />
also located on the first floor, has hydrotherapy<br />
and electrotherapy areas, cardiovascular and<br />
isokinetic equipment, as well as taping areas,<br />
a rehabilitation area, an aerobics room, and<br />
athletic trainer and physician offices.<br />
On the second floor, an attractive multipurpose<br />
room, enclosed by a glass wall,<br />
provides a panoramic view of James M.<br />
Shuart Stadium. Meetings and receptions for<br />
alumni, parents and friends of the Hofstra<br />
Athletic program are held in this area. Located<br />
on this level are the offices for the men and<br />
women’s lacrosse coaching staffs.<br />
The lacrosse office was the benefit of a major<br />
renovation project in 2008. The offices are<br />
equipped with video equipment, a 12-seat<br />
theater with stadium seating for group film<br />
and meeting sessions, as well as a viewing<br />
room with hardwood flooring and a 50-inch<br />
flat screen television that overlooks the field.<br />
In 2010 Margiotta Hall was the recipient of a<br />
“Traditions Project” that provides a sense of<br />
history of the lacrosse programs. The walls<br />
of the second floor of Margiotta Hall contain<br />
pictures and brief text descriptions of the<br />
key moments and people in Hofstra Lacrosse<br />
history. The project was made possible<br />
through the generosity of former lacrosse All-<br />
American James C. Metzger ’83.<br />
The lower level of Margiotta Hall contains a<br />
178-seat theater, additional meeting rooms<br />
and an indoor golf training facility.<br />

James M. Shuart Stadium/Indoor Practice Facility<br />
Originally opened in 1963 as Hofstra Stadium<br />
and renamed James M. Shuart Stadium in<br />
August 2002, the facility serves as the home<br />
to Hofstra’s lacrosse teams.<br />
Named after the former Hofstra President, who<br />
played football and lacrosse during his undergraduate<br />
days at Hofstra, James M. Shuart Stadium has<br />
served as the host for the NCAA Division I Men’s<br />
Lacrosse Championship Quarterfinals and first round<br />
games in the NCAA Men’s and Women’s Lacrosse<br />
Championships, numerous conference championship<br />
contests, the Long Island All-Star Football Game,<br />
the Fun City Bowl featuring the New York City<br />
Police and Fire Department teams, the Long Island<br />
Lizards of Major League Lacrosse, and various Long<br />
Island high school and New York state championship<br />
games. The stadium also served as a home for the<br />
Long Island Rough Riders of professional soccer’s<br />
A-League.<br />
In 1968 the stadium became the third college facility<br />
in the nation to install an artificial playing surface.<br />
James M. Shuart Stadium underwent a major<br />
renovation and expansion that was <strong>com</strong>pleted in<br />
the fall of 1996, making the facility into one of the<br />
premier <strong>com</strong>plexes in the Northeast. The project<br />
included the expansion of the seating capacity from<br />
7,000 to 13,000; the creation of the Howdy Myers<br />
Pavilion in the southeast corner of the stadium; and<br />
the installation of scoreboards in both end zones. The<br />
renovation transformed James M. Shuart Stadium<br />
into the largest outdoor sports and entertainment<br />
<strong>com</strong>plex on Long Island. In 2007 the artificial turf<br />
at James M. Shuart Stadium was replaced with<br />
FieldTurf, then in 2009 new scoreboards were<br />
installed in the north and south end zones.<br />
The largest crowds in James M. Shuart Stadium<br />
history occurred during the hosting of the NCAA<br />
Lacrosse Quarterfinals. A stadium record 13,447<br />
people, the largest-ever lacrosse crowd on Long<br />
Island, were in attendance for the 2011 NCAA<br />
Quarterfinals, while a crowd of 12,292, a then-NCAA<br />
Men’s Lacrosse Championship Quarterfinal record,<br />
witnessed the 1999 NCAA Quarterfinals featuring<br />
Hofstra versus Johns Hopkins. In 2009 11,292 fans<br />
were present and 10,510 fans attended the 2001<br />
quarterfinals that featured Hofstra against Syracuse.<br />
Hofstra Indoor Practice Facility<br />
The Pride has use of the Hofstra Indoor Practice Facility, that<br />
formerly was the property of the New York Jets of the National<br />
Football League. The 50-yard turf field gives Hofstra a unique<br />
environment that many teams in the Northeast do not have. The<br />
practice bubble is located on the North Campus, behind the Mack<br />
Sports Complex.<br />

Sports Medicine/Athletic Training<br />
Through a <strong>com</strong>prehensive athletic training program,<br />
Hofstra University student-athletes are provided<br />
excellent health care during their time at the<br />
University. A coordinated effort between the University<br />
Health and Wellness Center, the Athletic Department<br />
and outside health care providers ensures every studentathlete<br />
the best medical attention possible.<br />
University student-athletes have direct access to a<br />
myriad of health care services. Managing the coverage<br />
of every practice and <strong>com</strong>petition event is Hofstra<br />
University’s athletic training staff, which is led by<br />
ninth-year Head Athletic Trainer Evan Malings and<br />
features six full-time athletic trainers and numerous<br />
student athletic trainers. The athletic trainers provide<br />
injury management, rehabilitation and treatment to the<br />
entire Athletic program. Utilizing three state-of-theart<br />
athletic training rooms, these professionals work<br />
tirelessly to ensure the safe participation of Hofstra’s<br />
student-athletes and to return injured athletes to play<br />
quickly and safely.<br />
Supporting the athletic trainers is team physician Dr. Michael<br />
Yorio. Dr. Yorio, a physician with Pro Health Care, Inc. in<br />
Lake Success, New York, is in his third year on Hofstra’s<br />
medical team. Yorio is an internist with specialized training<br />
in sports medicine. He earned his undergraduate degree at<br />
Villanova University, and received his medical degree from the<br />
SUNY Health Science Center in Syracuse. Yorio previously<br />
served as a sports medicine fellow with the University of<br />
Maryland Orthopedics. Prior to that, he was a resident<br />
physician in internal medicine at Carolinas Medical Center in<br />
Charlotte, North Carolina.<br />
Yorio was named the Director of Player Medical Services for<br />
the 2008 U.S. Open Tennis Tournament in Flushing, New York,<br />
and is on the medical staff for the New York Islanders. He also<br />
worked as a team physician for the University of Maryland<br />
from 2003 to 2005.<br />
Hofstra University sponsors a fully accredited, highly<br />
<strong>com</strong>petitive undergraduate degree program for athletic training<br />
majors, in which Hofstra student athletic trainers participate in<br />
all aspects of the health care system.<br />

Athletic Academic Support<br />
Hofstra University is <strong>com</strong>mitted to the pursuit of<br />
academic and athletic excellence. The University views<br />
participation in intercollegiate athletics as benefiting the<br />
student-athlete in an educationally enhancing experience beyond<br />
any other opportunity available. Hofstra also realizes the time<br />
<strong>com</strong>mitment made by student-athletes and has <strong>com</strong>mitted the<br />
facilities and resources to support all students.<br />
The University Tutorial Program (UTP) provides free tutoring<br />
in every subject area to any Hofstra student. Students are able to<br />
obtain up to 1 1/2 hours of individual tutorial assistance per week<br />
for up to three courses. They are also able to utilize the various<br />
help labs on campus, which specialize in providing assistance in<br />
writing, business and QM, and biology and chemistry. In addition<br />
to this service, student-athletes are assigned an academic advisor,<br />
through the Center for University Advisement, who helps address<br />
the various needs of student‐athletes. The academic advisor<br />
emphasizes four areas in their efforts to ensure the academic<br />
success of Hofstra’s student-athletes.<br />
Area one is academic counseling. Services are provided in the<br />
areas of academic planning, career planning, personal counseling,<br />
and campus and <strong>com</strong>munity referrals. The advisor also meets with<br />
prospective student‐athletes, at the coach’s request, to share the<br />
many benefits of a Hofstra University education.<br />
Area two is academic advising. The academic advisor serves as<br />
the primary advisor for first-year and undecided student-athletes,<br />
and also assists upperclassmen who have declared a major.<br />
Area three is academic monitoring. The advisor monitors the<br />
academic progress of student‐athletes to ensure <strong>com</strong>pliance<br />
with Hofstra University, NCAA and conference regulations. The<br />
advisor’s regular <strong>com</strong>munication with the faculty and coaches<br />
provide opportunities for early intervention should academic<br />
difficulties arise.<br />
Area four is study halls. The University Tutorial Program supports<br />
athletic study halls by providing tutors in various subjects as<br />
necessary. The academic advisors also assess the needs of<br />
individual student‐athletes to provide the most effective study<br />
environment. The assessment tool administered by the Center for<br />
University Advisement is also used to provide various enrichment<br />
seminars for the student‐athletes such as time management,<br />
writing skills, campus resources, and surviving the college<br />
transition.<br />
In 2010 The Fried Center for Student-Athlete Development was<br />
opened on the second level of the James M. Shuart Stadium<br />
Building. The center houses the offices of the Student-Athlete<br />
Services Staff, as well as a large <strong>com</strong>puter lab with printer access<br />
for use by Hofstra student-athletes, a quiet study area with<br />
wireless internet access and two group study/tutor rooms with<br />
power point access and white boards.<br />

The Colonial Athletic Association<br />
The Colonial Athletic Association continues to build on its<br />
reputation as one of the nation’s top collegiate conferences both<br />
athletically and academically.<br />
The CAA en<strong>com</strong>passes five of the nation’s nine largest metropolitan<br />
areas with a geographic footprint that stretches from Boston to Atlanta.<br />
The conference has produced 16 national team champions in five<br />
different sports, 33 individual national champions, 12 national players<br />
of the year, 12 national coaches of the year and 12 Honda Award<br />
winners. Just as impressive, however, are the honors accumulated<br />
away from <strong>com</strong>petition, which include five Rhodes Scholars and 22<br />
NCAA post-graduate scholars. In 2010-11, more than 1,900 of the<br />
league’s 4,000 student-athletes received the Commissioner’s Academic<br />
Award after posting at least a 3.2 grade point average while lettering<br />
in a varsity sport. The conference had 21 teams in 12 different<br />
sports receive NCAA Public Recognition Awards based on the latest<br />
Academic Progress Report released in 2011.<br />
The landscape of the conference<br />
stretches along the majority of the<br />
East Coast, and includes six of the<br />
nation’s top 25 media markets – New<br />
York (1), Philadelphia (4), Boston<br />
(7), Atlanta (8), Washington, D.C. (9)<br />
and Baltimore (25). The number of<br />
television homes in the CAA market<br />
exceeds 20 million.<br />
The CAA conducts championships in<br />
23 sports. Male athletes <strong>com</strong>pete for<br />
championships in baseball, basketball,<br />
cross country, football, golf, lacrosse,<br />
soccer, swimming & diving, tennis,<br />
track & field and wrestling. Female athletes battle for conference titles<br />
in basketball, cross country, field hockey, golf, lacrosse, rowing, soccer,<br />
softball, swimming & diving, tennis, track & field and volleyball. In<br />
2010-11, 25 teams earned NCAA Tournament berths and 50 studentathletes<br />
received All-America honors in 13 different sports.<br />
The conference has made its presence known nationally in men’s<br />
basketball with two teams – George Mason (2006) and VCU (2011) –<br />
advancing to the NCAA Final Four over the past five years. Three CAA<br />
teams earned NCAA Tournament berths for the first time in 2011 as<br />
conference champion Old Dominion was joined by VCU and George<br />
Mason. VCU knocked off USC, Georgetown, Purdue, Florida State and<br />
top-seeded Kansas, while Mason defeated Villanova. The Rams were<br />
ranked No. 6 in the final ESPN/USA Today Top 25 poll, which was the<br />
highest ranking ever for a CAA team. In 2006, George Mason captured<br />
the nation’s imagination by be<strong>com</strong>ing the first mid-major program since<br />
1979 to reach the Final Four, posting victories over Michigan State,<br />
North Carolina, Wichita State and Connecticut along the way.<br />
Six CAA women’s basketball teams advanced to postseason<br />
play in 2011. James Madison represented the conference in the<br />
NCAA Tournament after capturing its second straight conference<br />
championship. Delaware, Drexel, UNC Wilmington, Old Dominion<br />
and VCU participated in the WNIT, with the Seahawks advancing to<br />
the second round. ODU, which won an NCAA-record 17 straight CAA<br />
titles from 1992-2008, boasts three national championships (1979,<br />
1980, 1985) and was national runner-up in 1997.<br />
The conference also excels in many other sports. CAA squads have<br />
<strong>com</strong>bined to win 10 field hockey national titles since the championship<br />
began in 1981. At least two women’s soccer teams have advanced to<br />
the second round of the NCAA Tournament in three of the past four<br />
seasons and William & Mary gave the CAA a team in the final 16<br />
of the NCAA Men’s Soccer Championship for the sixth time in the<br />
last nine years. In men’s cross country, William & Mary advanced<br />
to the NCAA Championship for the 12 th straight year and finished<br />
19 th overall. In the pool, Towson’s Meredith Budner finished as the<br />
runner-up in the 500 freestyle and 1650 freestyle at the 2011 NCAA<br />
Championship and received All-America honors along with George<br />
Mason’s Ashley Danner. Delaware and Towson have each reached the<br />
Final Four of the NCAA Men’s Lacrosse Championship in the past<br />
decade. The CAA has sent multiple teams to the NCAA Baseball<br />
Championship in nine of the last 14 years and has had at least 12<br />
players selected in the eight of the last nine Major League Baseball<br />
drafts. The conference also boasts numerous All-Americans in lacrosse,<br />
tennis, golf, track and field, women’s lacrosse and wrestling.<br />
CAA member institutions are<br />
<strong>com</strong>mitted to excellence in the<br />
classroom. The Colonial Academic<br />
Alliance was created in 2002 by the<br />
league’s presidents with a goal of<br />
expanding their partnership to all<br />
aspects of university life outside of<br />
intercollegiate athletics. Among the<br />
programs that have been established are<br />
an undergraduate research conference,<br />
coordination of study abroad programs<br />
and granting visiting academic status<br />
to student-athletes traveling to an away<br />
contest so that they have access to libraries, academic resource centers<br />
and <strong>com</strong>puter labs.<br />
In 2002, two faculty members from CAA institutions were awarded<br />
academia’s most coveted distinction – the Nobel Prize. John B. Fenn,<br />
a research professor in the Department of Chemistry at Virginia<br />
Commonwealth University, received the Nobel Prize for chemistry,<br />
and Vernon Smith, a professor of economics and law at George Mason<br />
University, shared the Nobel Prize in economic sciences.<br />
Commissioner Thomas E. Yeager has guided the CAA since its<br />
inception. The conference traces its roots back to 1983 when three<br />
of its current members- George Mason University, James Madison<br />
University, and the College of William and Mary - were aligned<br />
with East Carolina University, the United States Naval Academy and<br />
the University of Richmond as a basketball league (ECAC South).<br />
During the next two years, the league added 11 sports, acquired two<br />
new members (the University of North Carolina at Wilmington and<br />
American University) and decided to form a new association. The<br />
transformation from ECAC South to CAA took place on June 6, 1985.<br />
Charter members George Mason, James Madison, UNC Wilmington<br />
and William and Mary were joined by Old Dominion University<br />
in 1991 and by Virginia Commonwealth University in 1995. The<br />
conference added the University of Delaware, Drexel University,<br />
Hofstra University and Towson University in 2001. Georgia State<br />
University and Northeastern University became members of the<br />
conference on July 1, 2005.<br />

treatment of blood cancer. Colleluori started the foundation before<br />
succumbing to non-Hodgkins Lymphoma in 2006.<br />
The third annual Nick Colleluori Women’s Lacrosse Classic was held on<br />
September 24 at Hofstra University and the event was a success for the<br />

$32,000 in contributions, while the 2010 tournament raised $42,000.<br />
“We are very honored to host the Nick Colleluori Women’s Lacrosse<br />

from #20 Hofstra in the final 30 minutes for a 14-9 victory in the<br />
season opener for both teams at James M. Shuart Stadium. The Eagles<br />
outscored the Pride, 9-5, in the second half to open their season with a<br />
win. Hofstra’s Stephanie Rice had three goals and an assist in the losing<br />
effort.<br />
The Pride trailed at the half, 5-4, after a back and forth opening 30<br />
minutes. Brittany Wilton’s third goal of the opening half, off a feed from<br />
Barry, broke a 4-4 tie with 14 seconds left in the opening stanza.<br />
The Eagles looked poised to break it open in the second half as Sam<br />
Taylor and Barry scored unassisted goals at 28:47 and 28:29 to make it<br />
7-4 in favor of BC. But Hofstra battled back and scored four of the next<br />

goal at 25:18. After a Kristin Igoe goal gave BC an 8-5 advantage, Rice<br />

goal at 20:26 before Brady scored again at 20:11, this time converting<br />
a breakaway pass from Jenn Ward to make it 9-8 in favor of Boston<br />
College.<br />
That would be as close as Hofstra would get as Boston College reeled<br />
off four straight goals, two by Barry, to take a 13-9 lead with 11:49<br />
remaining. Ardolino would score from Brady at 8:24 and Wilton netted<br />

Game Two at Oregon: Led by a career-high five points from Stephanie<br />
Rice, the #20 Hofstra Women’s Lacrosse team rallied from a late twogoal<br />
deficit to earn a 12-11 overtime victory over Oregon on Sunday<br />
afternoon.<br />
Jaclyn Pandolf was stellar in net for the Pride as she had a career-high 13<br />
saves, including a pair in overtime, to lead Hofstra’s defensive efforts.<br />
Rice contributed three goals and a career-high two assists in the contest,<br />
including notching the eventual game-winner with 50 seconds left in<br />

knotted at six after Oregon’s Jana Dummond tied the score at six with an<br />
unassisted goal with 10 seconds left.<br />
Claire Brady notched Hofstra’s first two goals of the game, including an<br />
unassisted tally at the 13:17 mark that brought the Pride to within 3-2.<br />

her own before Barrett pushed the lead back to 10-8 with her fifth goal of<br />
the contest at the 16:43 mark.<br />
The duel between Ardolino and Barrett would continue, though, as<br />
Ardolino closed the gap to 10-9 with her third goal of the game with<br />
11:54 remaining. Hofstra would finally even the score again, for the first<br />
time since early in the second stanza, when Jennalee Trombley converted<br />
a free position shot with 4:44 left in regulation to tie the game at 10.<br />
Rice was all over the field in the overtime session as she assisted on<br />
the Pride’s first goal, which came off the stick of Casey Kellogg before<br />
tallying the game-winner in the final minute.<br />
Drummond did close the gap to 12-11 with an unassisted goal with 21<br />
seconds remaining in overtime, but Hofstra held on to improve to 9-3 in<br />
its last 12 overtime contests.<br />
Ardolino finished with three goals and one assist, while McKinnon<br />
added one goal and two assists in the contest. Katie Hertsch had two<br />

one <strong>com</strong>ing at the 19:58 mark that gave the Pride a <strong>com</strong>manding 12-7<br />
advantage.<br />

Albany to overshadow a hat trick from Jacquelyn Ardolino as the Great<br />
Danes captured a 13-8 decision over the No. 20 Pride.<br />
Hofstra got off to a hot start in the contest as the Pride led 3-0 after less<br />
than three minutes of play courtesy of goals from Lindsay McKinnon<br />
Maryann Miller and Ardolino. McKinnon got Hofstra on the board first<br />
at the 28:55 mark before her teammates added goals over the next 1:30 to<br />
push the lead to three goals.<br />

as she scored four of the Great Danes next five goals to give the home<br />
squad a 5-4 lead with exactly 15 minutes to play in the opening stanza.<br />
Ardolino quickly evened the score at five just 15 seconds later before the<br />
Great Danes took control and ended the half with three straight goals to<br />
lead 8-5 at the break. Albany would continue its run to start the second<br />
half as they notched the first four goals of the second stanza to open a<br />
<strong>com</strong>manding 12-5 lead with less than nine minutes remaining.<br />

through the first half. Erin Brennan scored off a pass from Giordano at<br />
the 3:32 mark to open the scoring. Giordano scored nearly 10 minutes<br />
later when she converted a pass from Bridget Waclawik for a 2-0 lead.<br />
Waclawik closed out the run with an unassisted tally at the 16:51 mark.<br />
Maryann Miller put the Pride on the scoreboard with 5:40 left in the<br />
half as she scored the first of her two goals on the afternoon off a free<br />
position attempt. But Tory Bensen put the Quakers back up by three,<br />
4-1, with an unassisted goal with 3:02 on the clock. The Pride pressed on<br />
and drew a foul with under 10 seconds left in the half, resulting in a free<br />
position shot. Claire Brady converted the shot and Hofstra trailed, 4-2 at<br />
the half.<br />
Stephanie Rice cut the Pride deficit to 4-3 with a free position goal 2:21<br />
into the half. But that was as close as Hofstra would get as Penn ran<br />
off four consecutive goals over an 11-minute span to take an 8-4 lead<br />
following Kelly McCallion’s goal off a rebound with 13:38 remaining.<br />
Miller closed out the scoring with an unassisted goal with 7:09 to go.<br />

Game Six at Rutgers: Jill Maier scored five goals to lead Hofstra back<br />
from a 7-3 halftime deficit, but Lindsey Watts scored a free position goal<br />
1:46 into the second overtime as the Rutgers Women’s Lacrosse team<br />
edged Hofstra, 11-10, at the RU Turf Field.<br />
Maier twice tied the game for Hofstra in the closing minutes of<br />
regulation to help force the extra sessions. Rutgers led 9-7, but a Julia<br />

tied it at 9-9 for the Pride with 8:04 to go.<br />
After Rutgers went ahead 10-9 with 3:32 to play, Maier tied it again at<br />
the 1:24 mark to make the score 10-10. Hofstra got the ball back and<br />
nearly scored the game-winning goal at the regulation horn after a save<br />
from goalkeeper Jaclyn Pandolf set up a transition attempt, but the<br />
officials ruled that the shot was late, sending the game to overtime. The<br />
Pride outshot Rutgers, 17-9, in the second half, after Rutgers had a 21-5<br />
advantage in the opening half.<br />
Rutgers took a 7-3 lead into halftime after a late 4-0 spurt. Hofstra tied<br />
the score at 3-3 on a goal from Stephanie Rice with 7:16 left in the half,<br />
but Rutgers reeled off four goals in the final 4:15 to take a 7-3 lead into<br />
the break. Lindsey Watts started the run with a goal at the 4:15 mark, and<br />
capped it off with a goal with 12 seconds left.<br />
Rutgers outshot Hofstra, 21-5, in the first half, but the Pride regrouped<br />
at intermission and scored the first three goals of the second half to get<br />
back within 7-6 in quick fashion. Rice scored off a feed from Claire<br />
Brady just 39 seconds into the second stanza, and Jenn Ward and<br />
Jennalee Trombley tacked on goals to get Hofstra within 7-6 with 25:32<br />
to go. After Marlena Welsh scored for the Scarlet Knights, Maier found<br />
the back of the net for the Pride at the 22:47 mark to make the score 8-7.<br />
Rice finished with two goals, one assist, two draw controls and a ground<br />
ball for Hofstra, while Pandolf had 13 saves and a team-high four ground<br />
balls. Emily Corzel added two caused turnovers for the Pride.<br />
Watts had five points (three goals, two assists) for the Scarlet Knights,<br />
while Ali Steinber added five draw controls, three ground balls, one<br />

Game 7 at Penn State: Jill Maier scored a team-high three goals, but<br />

before Maier gave the Pride its first lead of the game with 21:29 left in<br />
the opening stanza.<br />
The Nittany Lions evened the score less than two minutes later as Jen<br />
Steadman found the back of the net for the second time in the game.<br />
After a scoreless drought of over eight minutes, Penn State regained<br />

and tied the game at three with 10:34 to play before intermission.<br />
Penn State took a two-goal lead into the break as Fernandez and Laura<br />

the Pride, but it was all Penn State after that. The Nittany Lions would go<br />
on to score nine straight goals en route to the 16-7 victory over the Pride.<br />

three minutes into the game.<br />
Claire Brady would get the Pride on the board with 24:24 left in the<br />
opening stanza before Fairfield extended the lead back to two goals with<br />
23:20 to play on a goal from Amanda Best.<br />
Hofstra would take over at that point, though, as the Pride scored the<br />
final seven goals of the opening half to lead 8-3 at the break. McKinnon<br />
would lead the way in the run as she tallied all three of her goals during<br />
the 7-0 spurt to allow Hofstra to earn the five-goal advantage.<br />

an unassisted goal at the 28:39 mark before sophomore midfielder Jill<br />
Maier and freshman attacker Jenn Ward each scored to allow Hofstra to<br />
take a <strong>com</strong>manding 10-4 lead with just over 24 minutes left in regulation.<br />
The Stags attempted to make a <strong>com</strong>eback as they scored the game’s next<br />

in goals scored.<br />

honors in points with two goals and two assists, while Stephanie Rice<br />
tallied three goals and an assist in the contest. Jaclyn Pandolf continued<br />
her outstanding play this season as she had a game-high 11 saves,<br />

Hofstra trailed the Fighting Irish, 9-6, with just over seven minutes left<br />
in the second stanza before Jill Maier began the game-ending run with a<br />
free-position goal of her own.<br />
Maier’s goal with 7:27 left on the clock made the score 9-7 in favor of<br />
Notre Dame, but Hofstra would need another three minutes before they<br />
closed the gap any further. The Pride narrowed the deficit to 9-8 with<br />
4:30 to play as Rice scored off an assist from Jennalee Trombley. The<br />
<strong>com</strong>eback would be <strong>com</strong>plete with just under three minutes remaining as<br />
Maier scored her third goal of the game and second of the game-ending<br />
run to even the score at nine with 2:48 remaining in the second half.<br />
Hofstra went into the halftime break trailing 6-5 as Notre Dame used a<br />

with 2:21 left in the opening half following a goal from Kailene Abt.<br />
Hofstra scored the final goal of the half as Trombley scored off a feed<br />
from Rice with 1:10 left before the break to close the gap to one.<br />

five lead changes. Notre Dame opened the scoring at the 28:06 mark as<br />

take its first lead of the game. Rice scored the Pride’s first goal, while<br />
Jenn Ward put Hofstra ahead for the first time in the contest with a goal<br />
at the 21:54 mark off an assist from McKinnon.<br />
Hofstra, which played without two key starters in senior defender Bettina<br />
Mianulli and sophomore attacker Claire Brady, got three draw controls,<br />
two ground balls and two caused turnovers from Katie Hertsch. Pandolf<br />

contest and led 5-0 after a goal from Stephanie Rice with 22:29 left in<br />
the opening stanza. Maier got Hofstra on the board to start as she scored<br />
just 40 seconds into the contest. She would add another goal during<br />
the game-opening run to make it 3-0 before Taylor Albright and Rice<br />
followed to give Hofstra the early advantage.<br />
Towson immediately answered, though, as the Tigers used their own<br />
5-0 run to knot the score at five with 9:26 left before halftime on an<br />
unassisted goal from Dunn. The remainder of the first half saw the two<br />
squads account for eight goals in the final 7:40 of the half as the teams<br />
went into the break tied at nine. Towson looked poised to take a 9-8 lead<br />
into halftime before Brady beat the clock and notched a goal right before<br />
the buzzer to even the score at nine.<br />
It would be all Towson after the intermission, though, as the Tigers broke<br />

Katie Hertsch also had a strong game for the Pride as she contributed<br />
four draw controls and two caused turnovers to Hofstra’s efforts.<br />
The start of the game was delayed for 40 minutes as two officials were<br />
late arriving to the contest. Once the game got underway at 7:40 p.m.,<br />
William & Mary managed to find the back of the net first as the Tribe<br />
scored three times in a 1:11 span and held a 3-0 lead with 22:17 left in<br />
the opening stanza following a goal from Maggie Anderson.<br />
After being held scoreless for the first 16-plus minutes of the game,<br />
Hofstra would finally get on the board at the 13:26 mark as Alex<br />
Mezzanotte tallied her second career goal on a free-position shot to<br />
cut the deficit to 3-1. The Tribe would add to its lead following the<br />
Mezzanotte goal, though, as William & Mary scored the final three goals<br />
of the half and led 6-1 at the break.<br />
Hofstra started the second half scoring as Taylor Albright notched a goal<br />
just 49 seconds into the half to close the gap to 6-2. Mezzanotte was key<br />
again for the Pride as she assisted on the goal.<br />
After a scoreless drought of roughly four minutes, William & Mary<br />
upped its advantage as the Tribe scored two straight goals to open an 8-2<br />
lead with 22:34 left following a tally from Grace Golden.<br />
William & Mary would cruise to the victory at that point as the Tribe<br />
went on to earn the 13-8 win.<br />

Game 13 at Old Dominion: Despite two goals from Jenn Ward,<br />
the Hofstra Women’s Lacrosse team dropped a tight 6-4 decision to<br />
Old Dominion at the Powahtan Sports Complex. Ward’s strong game<br />
followed her three-goal effort in the Pride’s game at William & Mary on<br />
Friday.<br />
An evenly played game saw the two squads go into the break knotted<br />
at two as Jill Maier found the back of the net off a pass from Maryann<br />
Miller with 4:24 left before the break.<br />
Jennalee Trombley<br />
The goal came after a lengthy scoring drought for both teams as the Lady<br />
Monarchs took a 2-1 lead on a Lisa Bernardini goal with 21:55 to play<br />
in the first half. Ward notched Hofstra’s first goal of the game with 23:28<br />
showing on the clock after Sarah Wright of ODU had opened up the<br />
scoring.<br />
Alyssa Dragon would give Old Dominion an early 3-2 lead in the second<br />
stanza before sophomore midfielder Casey Kellogg scored a freeposition<br />
goal with 19:10 left in regulation to even the score at three.<br />
After a nearly five-minute scoring drought, Bernardini put ODU up once<br />
again but Ward answered less than two minutes later to make it 4-4 with<br />
12:54 to play.<br />
Hofstra would be unable to get over the hump, though, as Sarah Wright<br />
scored the game-winner with 5:55 remaining and Rebecca Hartrum<br />
added an insurance goal with 2:02 left to give the Lady Monarchs the 6-4<br />
victory.<br />
Hofstra lost despite holding a <strong>com</strong>manding 10-2 advantage in draw<br />
controls, led by six from Maier.<br />
Jaclyn Pandolf led Hofstra with three ground balls, while also making<br />
eight saves in net. Katie Hertsch and Chrissy Jones each tallied two<br />

Alex Mezzanotte would find the back of the net with 11:47 to play before<br />
intermission and then Stephanie Rice tied the game at six for Hofstra<br />
with 10:56 showing on the clock.<br />

back of the net until Maier gave Hofstra a 7-6 lead off a feed from Brady<br />
with 18:23 to play in regulation.<br />

Game 16 versus Drexel: Led by four points (two goals and two assists)<br />
from freshman midfielder Alex Mezzanotte, freshmen and sophomores<br />
<strong>com</strong>bined to account for 11 of Hofstra’s 13 points as the Pride rallied for<br />
a 9-8 victory over Drexel at James M. Shuart Stadium.<br />
Senior attacker Stephanie Rice was the lone upperclassmen to tally a<br />
point in the contest as she notched a pair of goals, including the gamewinner<br />
with 5:23 left in regulation on a free-position shot.<br />
The Pride had its most dominating effort of the season in draw controls<br />
as they won 17 of the 19 contested, including all 10 in the opening<br />
stanza.<br />
Back-to-back goals from Mezzanotte and freshman attacker Jenn Ward<br />
midway through the first half would allow Hofstra to take its first lead of<br />
the contest at 3-2 with 12:50 to play before intermission.<br />
After the two squads alternated goals, the Dragons scored the final two<br />
goals of the half to lead 5-4 at the break. Charlotte Wood, who scored a<br />
game-high four goals in the contest, had three first half goals, including<br />
one with 13 seconds remaining to give Drexel the one-goal advantage.<br />
Drexel opened the second stanza by scoring three of the first four goals<br />
of the half and looked to be in <strong>com</strong>plete control as they led 8-5 with<br />
15:25 left following a free-position goal from Amanda Norcini.<br />
Hofstra had other ideas, though, as Ward scored her second of the game<br />
with 14:41 to play off a feed from sophomore attacker Claire Brady to<br />
close the gap to 8-6 and kick-start the game-ending run.<br />
Rice, one of six seniors playing in their final game, stepped up when<br />
needed most as she scored with 10:22 to play and then sophomore<br />
midfielder Jill Maier evened the score at eight with 8:48 left. Both of<br />
those goals were assisted by Mezzanotte.<br />
With the out<strong>com</strong>e of the game still in the balance and under six minutes<br />
remaining, it was Rice that continued the Hofstra onslaught as the 96th<br />
goal of her career would win the game and allow the Pride to head into<br />
Stephanie Rice<br />
the offseason on a positive note. That goal capped a game-ending 4-0<br />
scoring run for the Pride that gave them their 18th straight win over<br />
Drexel.<br />
Maier and senior defender Katie Hertsch carried Hofstra in the draw<br />
control category as Maier had a career-high seven draw controls, while<br />
Hertsch added four.<br />
Junior goalie Jaclyn Pandolf had five saves in net to pick up her sixth<br />
win of the season and also led the Pride with five ground balls. Pandolf<br />
played every minute this season in net for Hofstra and totaled 159 saves.<br />
Ward and Brady both had two points for Hofstra in the contest as Ward<br />
scored a pair of goals, while Brady had two assists to finish with a teamhigh<br />
17 this season.<br />
Hertsch added a caused turnover to her draw control total, allowing<br />
her to finish her spectacular career with 138 ground balls, 70 caused<br />
turnovers and 110 draw controls. She finishes her career ranked third alltime<br />
in ground balls, fifth in caused turnovers and sixth in draw controls.<br />
