11 2003 Outlook HOFSTRA As the 2002 college lacrosse season approached, Hofstra University Head Men s Lacrosse Coach John Danowski believed his Pride team had the depth, talent and experience to be successful. His only concern, and it was a minor one at that, was chemistry to have the Pride play together as a team. It was evident early in the season, even in one-goal losses to second-ranked Hopkins and number eight Loyola, that his beliefs were correct. For after a decisive loss at Princeton, the Pride TEAM rattled off a nine-game winning streak, including victories over No. 7 Duke, No. 12 North Carolina, No. 14 Towson and No. 18 Notre Dame, to finish the regular season with an 11-3 record. That record, an exciting season and the nine-game winning streak to end the year would have to be enough reward for the Pride as they were snubbed at NCAA Tournament selection time in a most controversial decision. The 2002 season is long gone now. All that remains are the bittersweet memories of what was and what could have been. We don t talk about it,and no one really brings it up, Danowski says, not because we are bitter, but because it is behind us. It s in the past so why dwell on it? Besides, most of the returnees this year either did not play or saw just a little action last year. So it doesn t have as much of an impact on this year s team as it did to the graduating players is truly a new year with a new team. There s the rub. Despite the fact that Danowski has 24 players returning from last season, only a handful have any extensive playing experience, except for four returning starters. This year s team is unlike any other Hofstra team in recent years, Danowski said. In the past, we had starters back, we had depth, we had experience, we had leaders and they knew what they had to do to win. We have a great bunch of men on this year s team. They work hard, they are very coachable but they are terribly inexperienced, even the upperclassmen. We will be using a lot of new faces this season. The measuring stick that we have used to gauge our success in the past is not applicable this year. We will measure our success in small victories of progress and improvements as the season goes on. To bear out Danowski s contention, the Pride return only 57 of the team s 178 goals from last season. If you thought the playmakers were returning, guess again, as only 22 of the team s 100 assists are back. In goal, only Steve Izzo gives Hofstra any game time experience, and that was just 17 out of 840 minutes in The new season makes way for new groups of scorers, playmakers, defenders, goalies and stars to make a name for themselves. It will be the Pride coaching staff s job to mix and mold their young charges into a cohesive team. Danowski believes he has the talent but that it may take some time. ATTACK There is good news and bad news about the Pride attack this year. The bad news is that all three of the starting attackmen from 2002 have graduated and have taken their collective 73 goals and 51 assists with them. Hofstra career goal scoring record holder Tom Kessler (28G-21A last year), Scott Dooley (31G-14A) who tallied 157 points in his career, and Steve McTigue (14G-16A) have all departed. The good news is that the attack is the one area on this year s team that possesses the most playing experience. But Danowski cautions, The attack is unbelievably young with very little chemistry of playing together. With the move of senior Kevin Dougherty from midfield to attack, the return from injury of senior Joe Kostolansky and the return of reserve Jim Femminella, the Pride have a solid if not strong front line. Dougherty, who tallied 15 goals and four assists last year, was third on the team in shots and should get some better scoring opportunities on attack. Kostolansky tallied 37 goals and 23 assists in 2000 before suffering knee injuries that allowed him to play in just six games the Joe Kostolansky past two seasons. Femminella (20G-4A) is the Pride s leading goal-scoring returnee after denting the twine 20 times in Sophomore James Morgan (1G-2A), who saw limited time in 12 games last year, and red-shirt freshman Ryan Lucas will be vying to break into the starting lineup. MIDFIELD The midfield area is, without a doubt, the deepest area on the team with 19 players. The midfield lines are really interchangeable, Danowski says. They are in great shape with no real standout, which will make the battle for playing time competitive. I can see at least six freshmen stepping up into a playing rotation this season. Leading the midfield are seniors Bryan Walker and Ryan O Donnell. Walker started 12 of 14 games last year on the first midfield and tallied six goals and three assists. O Donnell, who also played in all 14 games last year and posted one of the best fall seasons on the team, is expected to contribute more after scoring just twice in Junior twins Rich (3G, 3A) and Keith Mekeel, who red-shirted last year with an ankle injury, are two of the hardest workers on the team and should give the midfield a boost. Junior transfer Don Scott, a Long Island product who returns after two years at Johns Hopkins, will give the Pride some additional experience. Sophomores Ryan Vilar and Mike Morrison should also figure into the midfield mix. Vilar, who missed the 2002 season with a back injury, tallied five goals in 16 games as freshman in Morrison, who could also see action on attack in 2003, tallied two goals and five assists in limited action in 14 games last year. But it s the newcomers who can figure in big at midfield. Leading the freshmen are Tim Treubig, an all-league selection at Farmingdale (NY) High School; Chris Unterstein, a scholastic All- American from New York State Champion Shoreham-Wading River High School; Brian Crichlow, a two-time Team Colorado Outlook

12 HOFSTRA 2003 Outlook 2003 Outlook 10 Ryan O Donnell selection; John Orsen, a second team All-American from Cold Spring Harbor (NY) High School; Ryan Miller, an All-Nassau County selection out of Manhasset (NY) High School and the brother of former Hofstra standout and World Team member Blake Miller; and Caleb Miller, an all-county selection from Pikesville (MD) High School who was a finalist for the C. Markland Kelley Award last year. At the pole, senior Mike Allain will relieve Danowski of any concern. Allain, who tallied five goals and picked up 47 ground balls last year, is a two-year starter and will bring poise and skill to a young midfield. We think Mike Allain is one of the top long stick middies in the country, Danowski said. He s intelligent, a hard worker and a true All- American candidate. Backing up Allain will be two Long Island freshmen, Steve Jacobs from Plainview John F. Kennedy and Tom St. George from Baldwin. DEFENSE Junior Brian Zuchelli, who started all 13 games that he played in last season, anchors an inexperienced defense. Zuchelli, who is big and strong, picked up 46 ground balls last season and will be the man the others look to for guidance when the pressure is on around the cage. Freshman Brett Moyer, a two-time All- American from Ridley (PA) High School and a member of the 2003 United States National Team, has the size, speed and skills to have an immediate impact on the Pride team. Senior Aaron Kozlowski, who saw limited action in seven games last year, sophomore Jon Edwards, who saw action in just three games due to injury, and seniors Dave Sweeney, who played in 12 games, Aaron Kozlowski and Andris Dikmanis will battle it out for the last starting spot. Newcomers Patrick Harnett, an All-Ohio pick from Worthington High School, Kevin McDonaugh, an all-county selection from Islip (NY) High School, and Bryan Read from St. Paul s School in Brooklandville, Maryland, as well as red-shirt freshman Bobby DePasquale will challenge for playing time. GOAL The goal area is the most inexperienced on the field and that, obviously, is not a good thing for the Pride. The two goalies have seen a total of 17 minutes of college action and all that time belongs to sophomore Steve Izzo. Izzo posted a goals against average last year during that time but will face a stern test for the starting job by red-shirt freshman Matt Southard. Southard was a two-time honorable mention All-American at Baldwin High School. THE SCHEDULE Like the attack area, there is good news and bad news when talking about the 2003 Hofstra schedule. The good news is that the young Pride will play 10 of their 15 games this season at James M. Shuart Stadium (formerly Hofstra Stadium). Playing at home, especially for an inexperienced team, can help ease Hofstra s growing pains. Unfortunately, the bad news is that the Pride will be playing one of the most ambitious schedules in school history. The schedule is, without a doubt, the toughest in school history, Danowski says. To start, we will be playing No. 1 (Syracuse) and No. 2 (Princeton) from last year. The schedule is loaded. Cornell, Fairfield, Princeton, Massachusetts and Syracuse were all tournament teams in We hope the tough schedule will prepare our team for the Colonial Athletic Association schedule and the conference tournament at the end of the season. Speaking of the CAA, the Pride finished with a 5-1 record and was second to Loyola in the league standings last year. Loyola has left the league, but that won t make the road any easier for the Pride in the quest to capture a conference title and the NCAA Championship automatic bid that goes with it. Our first goal this year is to qualify for the CAA Tournament, Danowski stated. That means to finish in the top four in the six-team league. Towson is the team to beat this year; Sacred Heart and Villanova are much better, as are Delaware and Drexel. If we make the CAA Tournament, our competition all season should better prepare us to play our best for an NCAA bid. Steve Izzo

35 James M. Shuart Stadium at Hofstra University HOFSTRA In February 2002 Hofstra University President Stuart Rabinowitz announced that the University s 15,000-seat stadium, home to Hofstra s Lacrosse (NCAA I), Football (NCAA Division I-AA) and Field Hockey (NCAA I) teams, would be named the James M. Shuart Stadium at Hofstra University. During Dr. James M. Shuart s 25 remarkable years as president of Hofstra University we grew from a fine regional institution to an internationally recognized university. Although every aspect of this University has benefitted immeasurably from Jim Shuart s leadership, we believe that his roots as a student athlete and his support of our fine athletic program makes the naming of the stadium particularly appropriate. By doing this we convey our admiration and respect for James Shuart to the thousands of individuals who use the James M. Shuart Stadium at Hofstra University each year, said President Rabinowitz. When President Emeritus James M. Shuart retired last spring, the Board of Trustees unanimously agreed that future generations of Hofstra students, faculty, alumni and visitors to our campus should be reminded of Jim s good work. Hofstra has achieved recognition for the successful integration of its outstanding academic and athletic programs. By naming the James M. Shuart Stadium at Hofstra University we provide an ongoing testamentary to Dr. Shuart s contribution to Hofstra, Long Island and the entire higher education community, said John J. Conefry, Jr., Chairman of the Hofstra University Board of Trustees. Many remarkable dreams become reality at Hofstra thanks to the dedication and hard work of the University s Trustees, administrators and faculty. As President I worked closely with my Hofstra colleagues on projects such as the stadium. Hofstra s marvelous stadium provides students, alumni, visitors and friends with a first-class venue. It is one of the top on campus intercollegiate sports facilities, indoor or outdoor, in the New York metropolitan area. I am truly honored that the Hofstra Board of Trustees has decided to name its stadium the James M. Shuart Stadium at Hofstra University, said Hofstra President Emeritus Dr. James M. Shuart. James M. Shuart Stadium, then known as Hofstra Stadium, was the benefit of a major renovation and expansion plan that was completed in the fall of 1996, and has made James M. Shuart Stadium one of the premier facilities in the nation. The $9 million project included the expansion of the seating capacity from 7,000 to 15,000; the installation of a networkquality lighting system for television broadcasts; an Athletic Department office building, which includes a press level and a club suite level; two entrance plazas on the south and west sides of the Stadium; a facade around the outside of the Stadium; additional parking and landscaping; a pavilion in the southeast corner of the Stadium; concession and souvenir areas; two locker rooms; the installation of a state-of-the-art scoreboard in the south end zone; and the reinstallation of a scoreboard in the north end zone. James M. Shuart Stadium is the largest outdoor sports and entertainment complex on Long Island. The renovation and expansion of the Stadium provides our students, alumni, visitors and friends with a first-class facility in which to practice, play or watch their favorite sport, stated then- President Shuart. It is one of the top on-campus intercollegiate sports facilities, indoor or outdoor, in the New York metropolitan area. Opened in 1963, Shuart Stadium has served as the site for NCAA Championships, Nassau County and New York State High School Championships in football and lacrosse, world championships in men s and women s lacrosse, professional soccer, commencement exercises and cultural events. In 1968 Hofstra Stadium became the third college facility in the nation to install an artificial playing surface, following the University of Houston (The Astrodome) and Indiana State University (Memorial Stadium). Shuart Stadium has become a focal point of the Long Island sports scene, serving as the home of the NCAA Division I Men s Lacrosse Championship Quarterfinals, conference championships, the Outback Steakhouse Long Island All-Star Football Game, the Hero s Bowl, the Long Island Lizards of Major League Lacrosse, various Long Island High School and New York State championship games and the 1999 Empire State Games. The Stadium also served as a home for the Long Island Rough Riders of professional soccer s A-League. The two largest crowds in Hofstra Stadium history occurred during the hosting of the NCAA Lacrosse Quarterfinals. A crowd of 12,292, an NCAA men s lacrosse championship quarterfinal record and the largest-ever lacrosse crowd on Long Island, witnessed the 1999 NCAA quarterfinals featuring Hofstra versus Johns Hopkins and Duke versus Georgetown, and 10,510 fans attended the 2001 quarterfinals that featured Hofstra against Syracuse. In addition to the recent renovations, within the past decade the Stadium has received a new balsam turf playing surface, several sections of new chair-back seating, a new sound system and the $3.8 million Joseph M. Margiotta Field House in the south end zone. James M. Shuart Stadium 33

36 HOFSTRA Margiotta Hall Margiotta Hall 34 Opened in 1992, Joseph M. Margiotta Hall, a magnificent threestory, 22,500-square-foot building, is the centerpiece of the Hofstra University Football and Lacrosse programs. The state-ofthe-art field house, combined with Hofstra s 15,000-seat stadium and all-purpose artificial turf, has created one of the finest I-AA facilities in the nation. Margiotta Hall, designed by Angelo F. Corva & Associates, features a 3,500-squarefoot weight room on the first floor. The weight room, often considered the showpiece of a football program, is outfitted with the most advanced strength training equipment available. The first floor also contains a spacious 2,600- square-foot Hofstra locker room that accommodates more than 100 student-athletes. The state-of-the-art athletic training room, also located on the first floor, has hydrotherapy and electrotherapy areas, cardiovascular and isokinetic equipment, as well as taping areas, a rehabilitation area, an aerobics room, and athletic trainer and physician offices. On the second floor of the building, an attractive multi-purpose room, enclosed by a glass wall, provides a panoramic view of James M. Shuart Stadium and its events. Meetings and receptions for alumni, parents and friends of the Hofstra Athletic program are held in this spacious area. This level also serves as headquarters for the Football and Men s Lacrosse coaching staffs, housing Head Coaches and Assistant Coaches offices, as well as meeting rooms. In 1999 the Pride Teaching and Learning Center opened on the second floor of Margiotta Hall. Funded in part by proceeds from the Joe Gardi Golf Open, the state-of-the-art computer lab and learning center features a projection system and 18 computer work stations, which are connected to the University network for easy access to the Internet. Locker rooms for game officials and coaches and a state-of-the-art video room are also located on this level. The newest addition to the second floor of Margiotta Hall is the Hall of History, which commemorates the achievements of Hofstra s Football, Men s Lacrosse, Women s Lacrosse and Field Hockey teams. Photos, trophies, plaques and other awards are on display in this area. The lower level of Margiotta Hall contains spacious locker rooms for Hofstra s Field Hockey and Men s and Women s Lacrosse teams. Additional equipment, laundry and storage space can be found in this area as well. A 178-seat theater and additional meeting rooms are also located on the lower level. The handsome lobby of Margiotta Hall contains an elegant commemorative plaque honoring donors who have contributed to this important addition to the Hofstra University campus. Those endowing scholarships and those who have dedicated a room in Margiotta Hall are also honored on the plaque.

37 The Howdy Myers Pavilion HOFSTRA In October 1998 Hofstra University President Emeritus Dr. James M. Shuart presided over the dedication ceremony for the Howdy Myers Pavilion in the south end zone of James M. Shuart Stadium. Howdy Myers served as Hofstra University s Director of Athletics, Head Men s Lacrosse Coach and Head Football Coach for a quarter of a century. His extraordinary coaching talents in both lacrosse and football from 1950 to 1975 made Howdy Myers a legend in both sports. Myers was personally credited with the tremendous growth of lacrosse on Long Island, through the creation of scholastic clinics and demonstrations in the 1950s, and leading the Hofstra Lacrosse program to national prominence. He was years ahead of the intercollegiate athletic world with his use of many coaching innovations in both lacrosse and football. Howdy Myers had a huge impact on intercollegiate and scholastic sports, Shuart said. Renowned for his coaching abilities throughout collegiate sports, Coach Myers will always be a Hofstra legend. Howard Howdy Myers passed away in Hofstra s connection to the Myers family includes his son, Howard Myers III, his daughter, Dorsey Donnelly, and his sonin-law, William Donnelly, who are all Hofstra alumni. A portrait sculpture of Howdy Myers, created by artist Peter Homestead, stands in front of the Pavilion facing the Shuart Stadium field. In creating the sculpture, Mr. The Howdy Myers Pavilion As Hofstra Lacrosse Coach, Howdy Myers coached 26 seasons ( ) and recorded a record. He coached Flying Dutchmen teams that captured eight divisional championships and made four NCAA Division I Championship Tournament appearances. In 1970 he received the F. Morris Touchstone Award as the United States Intercollegiate Lacrosse Association (USILA) Division I Coach of the Year. In 1971 Howdy Myers received the Governor s Trophy for providing continuous and meaningful contributions to lacrosse. That same year he received lacrosse s highest honor when he was inducted into the United States Lacrosse Hall of Fame. As Hofstra s Football Coach for 25 years ( ), Coach Myers recorded 15 winning seasons and a record. In 1959 he led the Flying Dutchmen to the first undefeated (9-0-0) season in Hofstra Football history. Dr. Shuart, who served as a team captain under Coach Myers in both football and lacrosse in the early 1950s, praised the coaching legend. Homestead worked from photographs and consultations with Coach Myers family and friends. The completed sculpture captures the spirit and strength of Howdy Myers.

38 HOFSTRA Academic Support 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. In addition to this service, the UTP has an athletic component that addresses the academic needs of student-athletes. The UTP academic counselor administers this athletic component. The UTP 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 counselor 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. In an effort to ease the demand on the Office of Advisement, the UTP academic counselor also advises firstyear and undecided student-athletes. Area three is academic monitoring. The UTP counselor monitors the academic progress of student-athletes to ensure compliance with Hofstra University, NCAA and conference regulations. The counselor s regular communication with the faculty and coaches provide an opportunity for early intervention should academic difficulties arise. Area four is study halls. The University Tutorial Program provides all athletic study halls with tutors in various subjects and assesses the needs of individual studentathletes to provide the most effective study environment. The assessment tool administered by the UTP is also used to provide various enrichment seminars for the studentathletes such as time management, writing skills, campus resources, and surviving the college transition. In the fall of 1999, the Pride Teaching and Learning Center opened on the second floor of Margiotta Hall. Funded in part by proceeds from the Joe Gardi Golf Open, the stateof-the-art computer lab and learning center features a projection system and 18 computer work stations, which are connected to the University network for easy research access to the Internet. 36

40 HOFSTRA Hofstra Heritage Hofstra Heritage 38 The history of athletics at Hofstra is as old as the University itself, and is steeped in the Dutch heritage that helps to make Hofstra such a unique school. Hofstra has always had strong roots in tradition. Ties to Dutch heritage and the Netherlands began with William S. Hofstra, after whom the school is named and on whose property the University was started. When the doors opened in 1935, the sole building on campus was Hofstra s mansion, which he had affectionately named the Netherlands after his homeland. The mansion, which houses administrative offices, is now the center of Hofstra s 240-acre campus, and has been renamed Hofstra Hall. Also adopted in this early stage of Hofstra s history was the school alma mater, The Netherlands. The lyrics were written by a faculty member to the music of the Dutch national anthem by the 16th-century Dutch composer Valerius. The Hofstra Flag The Hofstra storm flag is modeled after an actual Dutch geus, a privateer s flag. In 1991 a representative of Holland s Queen Beatrix presented the banner to then Hofstra President (now President Emeritus) James M. Shuart. The history of the flag dates back to 1572, when a group of Dutch loyalists called Watergeuzen used the flag s mast to ram the gates of a Dutch city in their opposition to Spanish rule. While the Netherlands Royal Navy flies the original red, white and blue geus, the Hofstra version has been redesigned in the school colors of gold, white and blue. The gold, white and blue Hofstra colors themselves spring from Dutch roots. The first official Hofstra flag appeared on April 19, 1940, when Dr. Alexander Loudon, an envoy for Queen Wilhelmina of the Netherlands, presented his country s flag to Hofstra in a special ceremony. However, the flag he presented was not the red, white and blue flag of the Netherlands, but the orange, white and blue banner of William of Nassau with a Hofstra emblem placed on the flag. The University has used the design ever since, although President Shuart, after researching the colors, replaced the orange hue with gold, making the flag truer to the original House of Nassau. The flag is one of Hofstra s most recognizable symbols, utilized in publications, pins and souvenirs. The Hofstra Seal The Hofstra seal, another easily recognizable emblem, was designed from the royal Dutch emblem by art instructor Constant Van de Wall. The seal is modeled on the coat of arms of the House of Orange-Nassau. The round seal includes the coat of arms, flanked by lions on either side. A lion also stands in the center of the coat of arms, holding a sword in its right claw and a bundle of seven arrows, which represent the seven provinces of Holland, in its left. The seal also carries the motto of the House of Orange-Nassau in Old French: Je maintiendray (I stand steadfast). In 1988 one of the two lions on the seal was officially replaced with a lioness. The seal is now the focal point of the Hofstra Pride logo. The Hofstra Nicknames The Hofstra nickname has also evolved over the years. For decades, Hofstra athletic teams have used the nicknames Flying Dutchmen, Dutchmen, or Dutch. Recently, an additional nickname of The Pride has become popular. We have not changed our nickname. We are both the Dutch (and its variations) and the Pride. The Pride nickname started during the University s dramatic recovery and growth in the mid to late 80 s from a major fiscal crisis during the previous decade. The first consistent use of the word Pride relating to athletics started in 1989 when the University s athletic booster club was founded and called itself The Pride Club. At that time it had no meaning associated with our teams. It was simply consistent with a general feeling about all of our efforts. The Pride nickname has also evolved over the past decade in a more specific fashion than just the expression of the feeling. The word pride is used to describe a sense of having strong self-respect or a sense of accomplishment. But in

41 Hofstra Heritage HOFSTRA 1988 the lion on the right side of the shield on the Hofstra seal was changed into a lioness to symbolize gender equity. This, in turn, led to the development of the University mascots Kate and Willie Pride, a lion and lioness. The two lions led to extensive use of the word Pride in talking about Hofstra, as a group of lions is called a pride. In 1995 bronze reproductions of the lion and lioness were added to the campus scenery. In fact, there are now four such pairs of sculptures on campus. However, the evolution continues even further. In 1997, the University purchased a sculpture by Paul Manship of Atalanta, a figure from Greek mythology. It is an impressive 14-foot tall figure of a running woman. It is on the west side of Hofstra Stadium. To complement this figure, in 1998, the University commissioned Gregg Wyatt to sculpt a similarly sized figure of a running man. In this case it was a representation of Hippomenes who was a central figure in the myth. The myth of Atalanta and Hippomenes relates closely to Hofstra symbology. As the myth goes, an Oracle told Atalanta, as a young girl, that she must never marry. Thus, Atalanta avoided men and devoted herself to the chase. Soon she could outrun any man. Yet because Atalanta was so attractive she had many suitors. To deal with them she imposed an almost impossible condition. She would only marry one who could beat her in a foot race. While she would be the prize of such a race, the penalty for losing was death. Nonetheless there were suitors and there was need of a judge for such races. Hippomenes was chosen for this role. However, when he saw Atalanta he immediately fell in love with her. Knowing he could never out run her, he sought the help of Venus. Venus agreed, and gave him three golden apples, which Hippomenes was to throw in front of Atalanta during the race. The apples were so desirable it would be impossible for her to resist picking them up, and thus she would lose the race. All this came to pass, and when the race was over and won by Hippomenes, they fell deeply in love and the youth carried off his prize. However, they angered Venus for their failure to thank her. As punishment, she turned Hippomenes into a lion and Atalanta into a lioness. With this strong identification with lions and the multiple meanings of the word pride, our coaches and players, as well as the sports media, have begun to use it extensively over the last several years. Our women s teams especially are more comfortable calling themselves The Pride, which is genderless, than they are calling themselves The Flying Dutchwomen or the Lady Dutch. The men s teams are also comfortable with the nickname Pride. However, as noted earlier, we have not abandoned the Flying Dutchmen or formally adopted The Pride. There is nothing wrong with having more than one nickname. It is not uncommon for a school to have two nicknames as institutions such as Yale, Virginia, Georgia Tech and Army have multiple monikers. The bottom line is our name is HOFSTRA. Hofstra Heritage 39

42 HOFSTRA Long Island, New York Long Island, New York 40 Long Island offers the best of both worlds: it is a suburban haven that is also convenient to New York City. Location, however, is just one of many assets that makes Long Island attractive to both native residents and visitors alike. The people, the sites and the unique geography of Long Island bring people back again and again. Long Island is the largest island adjoining the continental United States. Twenty miles wide and approximately 118 miles long, Long Island is separated from the mainland on the north by the Long Island Sound and on the south by the Atlantic Ocean. It measures 100 miles from the Nassau-Queens border to Montauk Point, which lies on the eastern tip of the South Fork. The eastern tip of the North Fork is called Orient Point. The forks are separated by the beautiful waters of the Great Peconic Bay and Gardiner s Bay. Nestled in the bays between the two forks are Shelter Island and Gardiner s Island. With a population of 2.6 million people, Long Island has a population larger than 20 states. It has 19 colleges and universities with 150,000 students, and 127 public school districts with more than 415,000 students. The region is considered one of the nation s wealthiest areas with a per household median income of $52,000. The work force on Long Island now exceeds 1.4 million persons, and the region boasts one of the lowest unemployment rates in the nation. The economy is made up of more than 85,000 businesses, has 50 million square feet of office space, and has more than 1,000 shopping malls. Roosevelt Field is the premier mall on Long Island, featuring department stores and specialty shops, and is only minutes from the Hofstra University campus. The most distinguishing features of Long Island, however, are its scenic beauty and its many sites and attractions. It has become a vacation spot for many, a getaway from big city hassles and distractions. People travel to enjoy the 1,100 square miles of shoreline on more than 150 different beaches. No area of the Island is more than 15 minutes from a worldclass beach. Jones Beach, which lies on the south shore, is a 2,400-acre park with six miles of ocean beach, boardwalk, bay beach, pool, golf and outdoor concerts. It is 10 minutes from Hofstra and, in the summer, students can catch a Hofstra shuttle bus to the beach. In addition, Long Island is home to 20 state parks, 100 golf courses, 100 tennis clubs and 400 yacht clubs. The active person can enjoy camping, canoeing, bicycling, water skiing, boating or fishing. Others might enjoy visiting any of the lighthouses, the millionaire mansions, the art galleries or one of Long Island s 14 wineries. The tourist may join the crowd at theaters and gourmet seafood restaurants, or hit one of the many exciting nightclubs. Families might cool off at the beach or the water park. The Hamptons, at the heart of the South Fork, are considered a summer resort area and are famous as the playground community of the rich and famous. Long Island is the place for the sports fan, as well. The Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum, which is literally across the street from Hofstra, offers concerts, children s shows and is home to the National Hockey League s New York Islanders. Belmont Park, home of horse racing s Belmont Stakes, offers the thoroughbred horse enthusiast an outlet in beautiful surroundings. Heading into Queens, there s Shea Stadium, home of the New York Mets. Further west, and a short ride via the Long Island Rail Road, is New York City, where students can frequent museums, theaters, retailers, Madison Square Garden, South Street Seaport and more. More than 24 million people visit Long Island each year pumping approximately $7 billion into its economy through tourism. Long Island is not merely a place for the tourist, however. Generations have settled down and made their living on Long Island, enjoying the benefits of moderate climate, miles of beautiful beaches, easy access to New York City, and a place to call home. With scores of major attractions and distinctive sites, Long Island has it all for the tourist, as well as the year-round resident.

43 The Colonial Athletic Association HOFSTRA Boasting a roster of 10 well-respected academic institutions, the Colonial Athletic Association continues to build on a proud history as one of the nation s top collegiate conferences. With the addition of four new members last year, the CAA s geographic footprint stretches from the shadow of the Statue of Liberty to the beaches of North Carolina. The landscape of the CAA is dotted with major metropolitan areas that include four of the nation s top 25 media markets New York (1), Philadelphia (4), Washington, D.C. (8) and Baltimore (24). The CAA showcases the athletic and academic skills of some of the nation s top student-athletes. On the playing field, the conference has produced 15 national team champions in four different sports, 28 individual national champions, 11 national coaches of the year and nine national players of the year. In recent years, the CAA has ranked as the top Division I nonfootball conference in the Sears Directors Cup standings. Even more impressive, however, are the honors accumulated away from competition, which include five Rhodes Scholars, 11 NCAA postgraduate scholars and 11 Honda Award winners. Annually, there are more than 600 CAA studentathletes who post at least a 3.2 grade point average and letter in a varsity sport to garner CAA Scholar-Athlete accolades. Under the direction of Commissioner Thomas E. Yeager, who has guided the CAA since its inception, the league basked in the national spotlight on December 13, The University of Delaware, Drexel University, Hofstra University and Towson University were introduced as the conference s newest members during a live televised press conference from the MCI Center in Washington, D.C. The four new institutions joined George Mason University, James Madison University, University of North Carolina at Wilmington, Old Dominion University, Virginia Commonwealth University and the College of William & Mary, expanding the CAA to 10 members for the first time in its history. The CAA conducts championships in 21 men s and women s sports. Male athletes compete for championships in baseball, basketball, cross country, golf, lacrosse, soccer, swimming & diving, tennis, track & field and wrestling. Female athletes battle for conference titles in basketball, cross country, field hockey, lacrosse, soccer, softball, swimming & diving, tennis, track & field, volleyball and golf. The CAA traces its roots back to 1983 when three of its current members- George Mason, James Madison, and 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 (UNC Wilmington and American) and decided to form a new association. The transformation from ECAC South to CAA took place on June 6, A Proclamation of Creation was signed by representatives of the eight charter institutions and by members of the media assembled for the announcement. By the fall of 1986, the league gained automatic bids to NCAA Championships in men s basketball, soccer, baseball and women s basketball and formed an officials bureau. Old Dominion became a member of the CAA in and Virginia Commonwealth University joined the conference in In men s basketball, the CAA has earned a reputation as a giant killer in the NCAA Tournament. Since 1981, CAA schools have posted 12 wins over higher-seeded teams, including UNC Wilmington s upset of Southern California last March. Nine of the conference s 10 teams have made at least two NCAA Tournament appearances since The tradition is equally as strong in women s basketball, where Old Dominion and James Madison represent two of the top 10 winningest teams in the history of Division I. The Lady Monarchs have captured three national championships (1979, 1980, 1985) and reached the title game in Last season, ODU advanced to the Elite Eight before falling to eventual national champion Connecticut. JMU made four Sweet 16 appearances between 1986 and The conference has also excelled in many other sports. CAA squads have won 10 field hockey national titles since the championship began in 1981, which is not only more than any other conference but represents nearly half of all titles won. In baseball, the CAA has ranked as one of the nation s top five conferences in four of the past five seasons, with six teams rated among the top 100 in Division I last season. The CAA is annually ranked among the nation s top 10 conferences in men s and women s soccer, and has traditionally sent multiple teams to the NCAA Tournament. The conference finished the campaign with teams ranked among the top 20 nationally in cross country, field hockey, soccer, women s basketball, wrestling, tennis and lacrosse. From all-star athletes to Nobel Prize winning faculty, the CAA takes great pride in producing performers who not only stand out on the playing field, but also in the classroom.

60 HOFSTRA Doug Shanahan Doug Shanahan 58 Every few years a student-athlete comes along with extraordinary talent and skill. Hofstra enjoyed the presence of such an athlete in Doug Shanahan from 1997 through The Farmingville, Long Island native was a two-sport standout, starring in lacrosse and football, and was the first two-sport, two-time All- American in Hofstra history. As a matter of fact, B Shanahan received All-American honors three times in lacrosse. Before one looks at Shanahan s lacrosse credentials, it should be remembered that he was a two-time I-AA All-American at safety for the Hofstra football team as the Pride made three NCAA I-AA Championship appearances during his four years in the secondary. His career was highlighted by big plays and he ended his college football career as one of the more prolific defensive scoring players in school history. During his tenure, he returned five interceptions or fumbles for touchdowns. In addition, Shanahan recorded 15 career interceptions and was among the team leader in tackles every season. If Shanahan was outstanding in football, he excelled in lacrosse, In 1999, he received USILA All-America honorable mention honors after leading the team in scoring with 21 goals and 14 assists, ground balls with 106 and winning 101 of 181 faceoffs (61.3). As a junior in 2000, Shanahan s point production dipped slightly but his impact was just as large as he tallied 16 goals and eight assists, led the team in ground balls with 143 and was third in the country in face-off winning percentage with a 64.2 mark, winning 181 of 282 draws. He was named to the USILA s All- America Second Team. Shanahan saved his best for his senior season, recording 43 goals and 13 assists, once again led the team in ground balls with 125, ranked 14 th in the country in faceoffs winning 167 of 285 draws for a 56.6 percentage and led the Pride to the NCAA Tournament Quarterfinals for the second time in three years. His hard work and his impact on Hofstra and in the lacrosse world were recognized when he was named to the USILA All-America First Team; received the USILA s Lt. Donald McLaughlin Jr. Award as the Division I Midfielder of the Year; received the USILA s Lt. Raymond J. Enners Award as the Outstanding Lacrosse Player in C A D Division I; and received the 2001 Tewaaraton Trophy from the Washington, D.C University Club as the Top Male Lacrosse Player in the country. During his four-year career at Hofstra University, Shanahan played in 63 games and accumulated 95 goals, 44 assists, 139 points, a school-record 450 ground balls, 347 shots and won 528 of 868 face-offs for a winning percentage of Although all of his career statistical numbers are not superior, his contributions to the Hofstra teams and the program during his tenure were. It was an added bonus when he was invited to tryout last June and made the United States Team for the 2002 World Championships. Not one to miss an opportunity, Shanahan s fine play in leading the United States to the World title earned him the ILF World Championships Best and Fairest Award, which is the equivalent of the Championships Most Valuable Player Award, as well as a spot on the 2002 International Lacrosse Federation s All-World Team. Doug Shanahan is undeniably the most honored player in the history of Hofstra Lacrosse. He had the unique ability to make a play when the team needed one and his desire to compete and his will to win were second to no one. A man with many options for his career path, Shanahan has been a member of the New York Jets of the NFL, the New York Dragons of the AFL, and the New York Saints of the MLL since the World Championships last Summer. His name and his successes have become synonymous with Hofstra Lacrosse. His impact will be felt for many years to come. Photos: A. Shanahan with D.C.
