Hofstra opened in 1935 as a commuter school with all classes and<br />

offices housed in one building. Since those early days, Hofstra<br />

has evolved into an international institution with a student body<br />

hailing from 46 states and territories, and 65 countries around the<br />

buildings on 240 acres. There are approximately 4,200 students<br />

living on campus, and Hofstra offers them and all students an<br />

and the commitment of the Hofstra faculty and<br />

administration to provide a challenging education<br />

that encourages the pursuit of lifelong learning.<br />

HEAD COACH DAVE COHEN<br />

Long Island native Dave Cohen is entering his<br />

second season as the Hofstra University head<br />

football coach in 2007. Only the seventh head<br />

football coach in the Pride’s 66-season history,<br />

Cohen is widely-regarded as one of the top<br />

defensive coaches in the country. During<br />

Hofstra’s rebuilding efforts<br />

last season, the Pride<br />

posted their best total<br />

defense number since<br />

1996 and ranked in<br />

the top half in the<br />

conference in rushing<br />

defense, pass defense,<br />

scoring defense and<br />

total defense.<br />

HEAD FOOTBALL COACH<br />

COACHING ExpERIENCE: 20TH YEAR<br />

HOFSTRA YEAR: SECOND<br />

Cohen came to Hofstra after a four-year stint at<br />

the University of Delaware – his second tenure<br />

at UD – from 2002 through the 2005 season.<br />

During that time his defensive schemes played a<br />

large part in Delaware posting a 15-1 record and<br />

capturing the NCAA I-AA national title in 2003.<br />

Led by All-American defensive end and Oakland<br />

Raider draftee Shawn Johnson and current San<br />

Francisco 49ers starting safety Mike Adams,<br />

the Blue Hens posted the first shutout in I-AA<br />

championship game history with a 40-0 win<br />

over previously unbeaten Colgate. Delaware’s<br />

defense, which held all four I-AA playoff<br />

opponents to under 10 points to set an NCAA<br />

I-AA record, led the Atlantic 10 in rushing<br />

defense (114.3 - 17th in I-AA), pass efficiency<br />

defense (113.36), and scoring defense (15.4 - 4th<br />

in I-AA), and ranked second in total defense<br />

(303.0 - 16th in I-AA). For his efforts, Cohen<br />

was honored in July 2004 as the NCAA I-AA<br />

Defensive Coordinator of the Year by American Football Monthly<br />

magazine.<br />

In 2004 Cohen led a Blue Hen defense that ranked among<br />

the top 25 in the nation in rushing defense, total defense, and<br />

turnover margin as Delaware went 9-4 and advanced to the I-AA<br />

quarterfinals. Injuries and youth played a big part in Delaware<br />

posting a 6-5 record in 2005 but the Blue Hens finished the season<br />

with two road wins. The squad ranked fourth in the Atlantic 10 in<br />

rushing defense (119.6) and sacks (30), and sixth in total defense<br />

(364.5) and scoring defense (24.0).<br />

Born in Huntington, New York, Cohen was a three-time league<br />

champion, all-county and All-Long Island selection at<br />

Commack North High School, where he played under Bill<br />

Edwards, who is the highly successful, long-time Pride<br />

softball coach. A 1988 business management graduate<br />

of Long Island University-C.W. Post, Cohen earned his<br />

master’s degree in education administration from SUNY-<br />

Albany in 1990. While at C.W. Post, he was a two-year starter at<br />

defensive tackle and earned CoSIDA Academic All-Region honors<br />

as a senior.<br />

He began his coaching career as linebackers coach and strength<br />

coach at Albany in 1988-89 before moving on to Lafayette<br />

College where he served four seasons from 1990 through<br />

1993 as linebackers and defensive line coach.


Hofstrafootball2007<br />

Cohen joined the University of Delaware staff in May 1994 and<br />

served five successful seasons, two as defensive line coach and<br />

three as linebackers coach. During his five years at Delaware,<br />

he helped lead the Blue Hens to three consecutive NCAA I-AA<br />

tournament appearances in 1995, 1996 and 1997, and the 1995<br />

Yankee Conference title. Delaware advanced to the national<br />

and placed third in the league standings with a 5-2 mark. The<br />

Rams won the league title in 2002.<br />

From 1999 through 2001 Cohen served as assistant head<br />

coach/defensive coordinator at Fordham University and played<br />

a big part in building a program that won the Patriot League<br />

title and advanced to the I-AA playoffs in 2002. He served<br />

under Dave Clawson, who is entering his fourth season as head<br />

coach of CAA opponent University of Richmond in 2007.<br />

Coaching Experience: 19th year<br />

0 Hofstra UNIVErsItY<br />

When Hofstra Head<br />

Football Coach Dave<br />

Cohen had to fill<br />

the vacant offensive<br />

coordinator’s position last<br />

spring, he didn’t have to<br />

look far with the selection<br />

of Assistant Head Coach<br />

and Offensive Line<br />

Coach Ed Foley to that<br />

position. Foley, who is<br />

in his second year on the<br />

Pride coaching staff, is<br />

entering his 19th season<br />

of coaching.<br />

Foley came to Hofstra in<br />

2006 after seven years<br />

at Fordham University,<br />

including the last two as head coach. After a 5-6 season in<br />

2004, a season in which the Rams dropped four games by a<br />

touchdown or less, Fordham slipped to a 2-9 mark in 2005.<br />

As Fordham’s offensive coordinator and offensive line coach<br />

from 1999 through 2003, Foley helped rejuvenate a program<br />

that rose to the top of the Patriot League in 2002, when it won<br />

its first-ever league title with a 10-3 record. In 2003, the Rams<br />

compiled a 9-3 overall record and had 12 players named to the<br />

All-Patriot League Team, including six members of the offense,<br />

four of whom were named to the first team.<br />

Under Foley’s guidance, the Fordham offense set numerous<br />

team and individual records. The Rams set a team record for<br />

most rushing yards in a season in 2003, gaining 1,657 yards,<br />

while also setting a school record for most pass completions<br />

in a season with 255. In 2002 Fordham led the Patriot League<br />

in passing offense and scoring offense, while finishing second<br />

in total offense and setting a team record for most points in<br />

a season. In addition to winning the Patriot League title that<br />

season, the Rams advanced to the NCAA I-AA Playoffs, where<br />

they defeated Northeastern University in the first round.<br />

In 2001 Foley helped the Fordham offense develop its first<br />

1,000-yard rusher on the NCAA Division I-AA level, as well<br />

as the first-ever 1,000-yard receiver in Fordham’s history. The<br />

Hofstrafootball2007<br />

Rams had the second-ranked passing offense in the Patriot<br />

League in 2001 as well as the second-best scoring offense. In<br />

2000 Foley’s offense established a running game that generated<br />

1,635 yards (an average of 148.6 per game), the most for a<br />

Fordham team on the I-AA level until the 2003 team gained<br />

1,657.<br />

Foley arrived at Fordham after spending the 1998 season as the<br />

offensive coordinator and offensive line coach at Jacksonville<br />

University, which sponsored a football team that year for the<br />

first time in the school’s history. Foley helped lead the Dolphins<br />

to a 4-5 record during their inaugural season, as the offense<br />

scored 271 points in nine games (30.1 ppg).<br />

Foley also served as an assistant coach at the University of<br />

Pennsylvania from 1991 to 1993, and again from 1995 to 1997,<br />

spending the 1994 season as an assistant at Williams College.<br />

At Penn, Foley coached the tight ends and tackles for five years<br />

and helped the Quakers to a perfect 10-0 record in 1993, when<br />

they also won the Ivy League championship. Prior to his stint<br />

at Penn, Foley served as the offensive line coach at the State<br />

University of New York (SUNY) at Albany for two years.<br />

Foley was a three-year starter at Bucknell University, playing<br />

offensive guard for one season and center for two. During<br />

his junior year, he was named the team’s top lineman, and<br />

he served as a captain during his senior year. He earned a<br />

bachelor’s degree in psychology from Bucknell in 1989 and a<br />

master’s degree in educational psychology at SUNY Albany in<br />

1991.<br />

He is married to the former Rebecca Schonfeld and has two<br />

sons, Charlie (7) and Lucas Wolfe, who was born in September<br />

2006. Ed’s brother is Glenn Foley, the former New York Jets<br />

and Boston College quarterback.

His first recruiting class at Richmond was a large part of the<br />

Spiders’ 9-4 record, including a 7-1 slate in the Atlantic 10 in<br />

2005. Richmond defeated Hampton, 38-10, in the first round of<br />

the I-AA playoffs before dropping a 24-20 decision at Furman.<br />

The Spiders ranked 12th in I-AA in scoring defense, allowing<br />

just 17.7 points per game, and 22nd in rushing defense,<br />

allowing just 120.1 yards per contest.<br />

Before coaching at Richmond, Elko worked with Spiders Head<br />

Football Coach Dave Clawson at Fordham University as his<br />

linebackers coach and co-defensive coordinator in 2002 and<br />

2003. While at Fordham, Elko coached a defense that led the<br />

Patriot League in scoring defense (14th nationally in 2002)<br />

and sacks, as well as ranking third with 25 turnovers caused in<br />

2002. In 2003 the Rams led the league in pass defense.<br />

Elko’s coaching experience also includes time at the U.S.<br />

Merchant Marine Academy, where he served as defensive<br />

coordinator. He also coached at his alma mater, the University<br />

of Pennsylvania, directing the secondary. He began his<br />

coaching career at Stony Brook in 1999 where he guided the<br />

linebackers in the fall and the defensive backs in the spring.<br />

A member of the Penn football team for four years, Elko helped<br />

the Quakers win the Ivy League title in 1998. He received a<br />

2007 FOOTBALL NOTEBOOK<br />

NEw CONFERENCE NAmE, OLD<br />

CONFERENCE FOES<br />

While the conference opponents are the same the name on the<br />

conference banner that the Hofstra Pride will play under in 2007 has<br />

changed from the Atlantic 10 Football Conference to the Colonial<br />

Athletic Association. Founded as the Yankee Conference in 1946<br />

and renamed the Atlantic 10 Football Conference in 1997, CAA<br />

Football retains the great programs and the rich history that makes this<br />

conference the premier Football Championship Subdivision league in<br />

the country. Speaking of new names, you will notice the elimination<br />

of the NCAA I-AA division classification name. Whereas Division I<br />

is now known as the Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS), Division I-AA<br />

has been renamed the Football Championship Subdivision or FCS.<br />

FIVE NEw FACES ON THE<br />

HOFSTRA STAFF<br />

Five new faces have joined the Hofstra Football coaching staff as<br />

Head Football Coach Dave Cohen begins his<br />

second season in Hempstead. Dave Patenaude,<br />

former University of New Haven head football<br />

coach and most recently an assistant coach at<br />

the College of the Holy Cross, brings 15 years<br />

of coaching experience to Hofstra as the Pride’s<br />

new quarterbacks coach and passing game<br />

coordinator. Antonio Smikle, a former University<br />

of Cincinnati standout receiver and most recently<br />

an assistant coach at Rutgers University, moves<br />

east to Hofstra to become the Pride’s running<br />

backs coach. Malik Hall, a former Atlantic 10<br />

standout at Massachusetts and most recently<br />

an assistant coach at Fordham, comes to Long<br />

Island as the Pride’s defensive line coach. John<br />

Paczkowski, a long-time scholastic coach in<br />

New Jersey and most recently an assistant on<br />

the staff at Maryland, comes to Hofstra as an<br />

assistant linebackers coach. Last but not least,<br />

Pride receiving record-holder Kahmal Roy, most<br />

recently a scholastic coach on Long Island, comes<br />

home to Hofstra as the assistant defensive backs<br />

coach. In addition to those five, Assistant Head<br />

Coach and Offensive Line Coach Ed Foley added<br />

the offensive coordinator’s title to his resume this<br />

season.<br />

2007 pRIDE OUTLOOK<br />

When Pride Head Football Coach Dave Cohen took the reins of the Hofstra<br />

Football program following the program’s 7-4 2005 season, he knew that,<br />

despite the return of a good number of returnees and starters, a revamping of<br />

the team’s direction might take some time. There was no doubt there was talent<br />

returning, but was there enough in key positions to make his plan work. A firm<br />

believer in a balanced attack on offense and a hard-working, aggressive defense,<br />

Cohen said, “you have to have a strong running game to win championships.”<br />

With the graduation of nine starters, including four that stuck in the NFL<br />

last season, he also knew it was about building for the future.<br />

The defense was expected to be strong and was, even with the loss to injuries<br />

of two starters – linebacker D.J. Talvacchio before the season, and co-captain<br />

and safety David Darby two games into the year. The defense posted its best per<br />

game average (311.4 ypg) since 1996 and kept the Pride within an arms length<br />

of winning. The Hofstra defense kept opponents under 22 points in eight of the<br />

11 contests, and held them under 300 yards six times.<br />

While some of Cohen’s wishes were realized, others fell short of the mark<br />

in 2006. The difference between the percentage of passes and rushes inched<br />

toward the midway point (51.5-48.5) last season. But the desired rushing<br />

results did not occur. Injuries on the line and an ankle injury to running back<br />

Terry Crenshaw (95-277-3), part of Hofstra’s two-back plan with current senior<br />

Kareem Huggins (136-572-4), stymied that.<br />

While Cohen was upset with the 2-9 record in his first season, he was pleased<br />

with the effort the team gave, and the “never-quit” attitude and intensity that<br />

developed under adverse conditions. The fact that six of the nine losses were by<br />

seven points or less, including four by four points or less, was a bit of a silver<br />

lining for the future, but was frustrating in the moment.<br />

Like last season, Hofstra is expected to have one of the top defenses in the conference,<br />

which changes its name to the Colonial Athletic Association while retaining<br />

all of its members from the Atlantic 10. The Pride will return 58 players,<br />

including 35 lettermen and 17 starters. Hofstra is expected to return six starters<br />

on offense, nine on defense, and both kickers, including senior All-American<br />

kicker Rob Zarrilli in 2007.<br />

There was no mistaking the fact that the Pride defense was the strongest segment<br />

of the Hofstra team in 2006. While Hofstra finished in the top half of<br />

the conference in rushing defense, passing defense, total defense and scoring<br />

defense last season, this year’s defensive segment has the potential to be even<br />

better. The Pride return nine starters, nine of their top 10 defensive players,<br />

and two other standouts in Darby and Talvacchio, who missed last season with<br />

injuries.<br />

The defensive line, which returns three of the four starters this season, jelled<br />

nicely in 2006 into the surprise segment of the defense. At tackle, senior Ken<br />

Sussman earned third team all-conference honors last year and headlines the<br />

Hofstra linemen. The Long Island native recorded 45 tackles in 2006 and led<br />

the Pride with 16.5 tackles for losses of 57 yards, and four sacks. Senior tackle<br />

Shemiah LeGrande, who has played in all 33 games and started the past two<br />

seasons since his arrival at Hofstra, also returns to a starting job this season. Le-<br />

Grande recorded 45 tackles, including nine at New Hampshire, and three sacks<br />

in 2006. Backing up Sussman and LeGrande is sophomore Scott Szelong, who<br />

At the ends, the Pride<br />

lost 2006 starting end<br />

Justyn Davis (26 tackles)<br />

to graduation. But the<br />

Hofstra staff is hoping that<br />

someone will step up to<br />

fill Davis’ spot like senior<br />

Thomas Massey did last<br />

year. The 6-3, 200-pound<br />

standout gave opponents problems with his quickness and athleticism. Massey,<br />

who returns to a starting role in 2007, led the Pride with 6.5 sacks for 49 yards,<br />

was second on the team with 10 tackles for losses of 60 yards, and posted 36<br />

tackles. The end spot is the only position that lost a player to graduation. There<br />

should be a good battle in the preseason camp for the other starting end spot<br />

between three sophomores in: Al Carmody, who played in eight games as a<br />

back-up last season and recorded 16 tackles, four tackles for losses, and 1.5<br />

sacks; Kevin Smith, an All-Dade County selection from Miami, Florida, who<br />

transferred to Hofstra from Western Michigan University; and sophomore<br />

Joe Akabalu, who saw action in six games and posted four tackles last year.<br />

Red-shirt freshman Andrew Nelson and newcomer Ronnie Cameron, a Prepster<br />

all-regional player from Holy Trinity High School on Long Island, will also be<br />

looking for game time.<br />

The linebacker segment was the strength of the defense last year and despite the<br />

loss to graduation of two-year starter and four-year letterman Chris Sebald (62<br />

tackles, 2 sacks, 1 int.), they shouldn’t miss a beat. During the 2006 preseason<br />

camp, senior D.J. Talvacchio was lost for the season with a shoulder injury.<br />

That opened the spot for then red-shirt freshman Luke Bonus to emerge and<br />

take over the vacated position. Bonus stepped up in a big way, leading the team<br />

with 98 tackles, two forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries, and added 8.5<br />

tackles for losses, two sacks and four pass break-ups while starting nine of<br />

the 11 games. For his stellar efforts he was named the Atlantic 10 Defensive<br />

Rookie of the Year, as well as to the All-Atlantic 10 third team. While Bonus<br />

returns to one outside linebacker spot, Talvacchio, who started in 2005 in place<br />

of the injured Gian Villante, returns to claim the other outside spot. Talvacchio<br />

recorded a career-best 62 tackles and two interceptions as a junior in 2005 and<br />

will be looking to return to form this fall. Pushing Bonus and Talvacchio will<br />

be experienced and talented senior Tom Daddino, a three-year letterman who<br />

posted 21 tackles in 10 games last season, junior Clarence Clanton, who saw<br />

limited action in 2006, and several newcomers.

Senior middle linebacker Gian Villante also returns to a starting role in 2007.<br />

The three-year letterman earned All-America honors in 2004, missed the 2005<br />

season with a leg injury, and then returned last season to record 92 tackles and<br />

earn All-Atlantic 10 first team honors. The aggressive and vociferous Villante<br />

also added seven tackles for losses, two forced fumbles and one sack. Senior<br />

Stanley Gutierrez, another multi-dimensional three-year letterman who played<br />

in all 11 games and posted 15 tackles last season, will back-up Villante and see<br />

additional time on special teams.<br />

Like last season, the secondary is loaded with returning starters. Leading the<br />

pack is senior safety and co-captain David Darby. The three-year letterman<br />

returned to his starting spot in 2006 only to have his season ended by a back<br />

injury two games into the season. Darby, who posted 20 tackles in two games<br />

last year, including 12 at Marshall, tallied 93 tackles and two interceptions<br />

in 2005. Senior Manny Anderson, who had a solid spring season, returns to a<br />

starting role at strong safety. Anderson, another three-year letterman, was third<br />

on the team last year with 79 tackles while starting nine of the 11 games that he<br />

played. Junior Nick Altomare, who has played in all 22 games and started eight<br />

during his Hofstra career, will challenge for playing time at both safety spots in<br />

2007. He recorded 24 tackles in 11 games as a sophomore last year.<br />

2007 pRIDE OUTLOOK<br />

There should be another good training camp battle for the starting sports at<br />

cornerback. The two starting corners from last season, seniors Kyle Arrington<br />

and DeWayne Whitaker, will be challenged by senior Stephen Tate, who started<br />

nine games at free safety last year in place of David Darby. Arrington was<br />

fourth on the team with 69 tackles while starting all 11 games and led the squad<br />

with five pass deflections in 2006. The speedy Whitaker, who had a solid spring<br />

season, played in all 11 games and started 10 last year. He posted a career-best<br />

40 tackles, including 23 solo stops, and three pass deflections. Tate, who started<br />

four games as<br />

a sophomore<br />

and nine as a<br />

junior, will give<br />

the Pride a fifth<br />

player in the<br />

secondary with<br />

The Hofstra offense, a perennial powerhouse, will be looking to bounce back<br />

from a rare down year last season. The graduation of five key starters, including<br />

the quarterback, leading receiver and a couple of key linemen, will make it a<br />

challenging task. But Cohen believes he has the young replacements both inhouse<br />

and coming in to camp this summer. Assistant Head Coach Ed Foley will<br />

add the offensive coordinator’s duties to his offensive line coach responsibilities<br />

this season. The Pride has 23 returning offensive players but only 13 were<br />

lettermen including the six starters. How quickly those young players mesh and<br />

fill the vacant positions could dictate the success of the offense.<br />

With the graduation of Anton Clarkson, the number two career-passing leader<br />

in school history, one of the battles for the starting spot to watch during the<br />

preseason camp will be the quarterback spot. Clarkson, who passed for 7,788<br />

yards and started 27 of the 33 games the past three years, left the spot open<br />

for senior Dennis Davis, who has played in 12 games and started three during<br />

that time. He played in five games as a junior, starting against Rhode Island<br />

and Northeastern, and completed 22 of 54 passes for 216 yards and two<br />

touchdowns.<br />

Davis was challenged in spring drills and will be during preseason camp by two<br />

There have been only two main running backs in the Pride backfield since alltime<br />

career rusher Trevor Dimmie graduated following the 2003 season. Terry<br />

Crenshaw, who graduated this past spring as the fourth leading rusher in school<br />

history, and senior Kareem Huggins, who has rushed for 1,231 yards during<br />

his three-year Pride career. Fortunately, Huggins, who rushed for a team-high<br />

572 yards and four touchdowns, returns to stabilize a young backfield that<br />

includes just one other upper classman. The senior from Irvington, New Jersey,<br />

is chiseled and ready for the work that will be coming his way that may also<br />

include duties at punt and kickoff returning.<br />

The other upper classman is the front-runner for the starting job at fullback,<br />

senior Raymond Bennett. Bennett saw limited game time in 2006 and did not<br />

have a carry. Both seniors will be backed up and challenged by several redshirt<br />

and true freshmen. Red-shirt freshman Jeff Aime, an All-New York State<br />

selection and the leading rusher in the Empire State as a senior, is coming off<br />

an impressive spring and will look to back-up Huggins. Freshman Kwabena<br />

Asante, a mid-year entry, also was impressive during the spring and could<br />

challenge for playing time. Red-shirt freshman Everette Benjamin, an All-<br />

Suffolk County selection as a senior at Amityville Memorial High School on<br />

Long Island, is the front-runner to back up and challenge Bennett<br />

The Pride lost tackle Jed Prisby, a third team all-conference selection who went<br />

on to sign a free agent contract with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and guard/<br />

tackle Chris Durkin to graduation. Prisby, the Pride ironman and three-year<br />

starter, played in all 45 games during his career and was the calming influence<br />

on a young line. Durkin, a three-year starter, came into his own as a senior and<br />

will be missed.<br />

But the Pride returns four players with starting experience on the line from<br />

2006. Heading the pack is senior, tackle Shawn McMackin. The 6-3, 287pounder<br />

started a total of eight games at guard and tackle last season and will<br />

be looked upon for leadership. A good battle should develop in the preseason<br />

camp for the other starting tackle spot. Red-shirt freshman Brian Frederick, an<br />

all-league scholastic tight end at Dracut (MA) High School, made the move<br />

over to tackle in the spring and is the front-runner for the starting spot entering<br />

the summer camp. Challenging McMackin and Frederick will be junior Joe<br />

Asermelly, a back-up his first two seasons at Hofstra, and freshman Derek<br />

Moore, a two-time All-Ohio selection from Newark (OH) Catholic High<br />

School.<br />

The guard spots have two sophomores penciled in as starters who stepped into<br />

starting roles in 2006 due to injuries. Sophomore Mike Trice moved into the<br />

starting lineup four games into the season and started six games. The Pride<br />

coaching staff was<br />

impressed with his commitment<br />

in the spring,<br />

and is looking for<br />

bigger things from Trice<br />

in 2007. Mangiero, who<br />

After graduating Marques Colston and Devale Ellis to the NFL after the 2005<br />

season, the Pride is hoping Shaine Smith will be the newest Hofstra player to<br />

stick in the pro ranks following Wayne Chrebet, Charlie Adams, Ricky Bryant,<br />

Colston and Ellis. Smith, who was at Hofstra for just two seasons but saw little<br />

time as a junior, busted out as a senior and led the Pride with 60 receptions for<br />

951 yards and nine touchdowns. He signed a free agent contract with the St.<br />

Louis Rams last spring.<br />

Senior receiver Charles Sullivan, who tallied 52 catches for 526 yards last year,<br />

moves into the leadership role in the Pride receiving corps. The Nanuet, New<br />

York, native roared into college football with a 68-catch, 938-yard freshman<br />

season in 2004 and has been steady and consistent ever since. With a three-year<br />

total of 152 receptions for 1,877 yards, Sullivan will be taking a run at Steve<br />

Jackson’s school reception mark of 206, and Colston’s receiving yards record<br />

of 2,834.<br />

Junior Ottis Lewis, who started seven games last year, hauling in four passes<br />

for 29 yards, also returns to a starting role at the other wide out spot and at 6-5<br />

is the tallest receiver on the squad. Sullivan and Lewis will be backed-up and<br />

challenged by seniors Chris Manno, who played in 10 games and caught seven<br />

passes for 58 yards, and Sam Cherilus, who saw limited action as a junior, as<br />

well as red-shirt freshman Aaron Weaver, an All-Long Island selection from<br />

blocks on opponents last year, returns to a starting job. He will be challenged<br />

When kicker Rob Zarrilli transferred to Hofstra from the University of<br />

Louisville for the 2005 season the question arose could he fill the void left by<br />

the graduation of Chris Onorato, the number two all-time career scoring leader<br />

in Hofstra history, who tallied 50 field goals and 295 points during his fouryear<br />

career. While Zarrilli will fall short of Onorato’s point total, there is no<br />

questioning the impact this future pro player has had on the Pride program.<br />

The first kicker to earn All-America honors since all-time leading scorer Dave<br />

Ettinger in 1995, and the first two-time All-America kicker in school history,<br />

Zarrilli has been nothing short of fantastic during his tenure in Hempstead. The<br />

two-time first team all-conference selection and two-time All-American by The<br />

Associated Press, connected on 18 of 21 field goals and 15 of 17 PATs last year<br />

to boost his career totals to 35 for 40 field goals, and 48 for 53 in the extra point<br />

department.<br />

In the punting department, senior Chris Hanly also returns after boosting his<br />

average seven yards per punt to 36.1 yards per punt from the 2005 season to<br />

2006. Hanly placed 10 of his 53 kicks inside the 20 and provided enough hangtime<br />

for 11 fair catches. Sophomore Shane Casciano, who punted 15 times for a<br />

37.5 average last year, will challenge Hanly for the starting job.<br />

DIRECTOR OF ATHLETICS<br />

Jack Hayes is in his fourth year as director<br />

of athletics at Hofstra University in 2007-08.<br />

Hayes was appointed by Hofstra President<br />

Stuart Rabinowitz as the University’s new<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, oversees Hofstra’s 18 Division I<br />

teams, an athletic administration of more than<br />

70 professional staff, and 430 student-athletes.<br />

Hayes’ proven expertise in enhancing<br />

academic and athletic success of studentathletes,<br />

strategic planning, fund-raising,<br />

marketing, university relations, facility<br />

enhancement, budgetary management, and<br />

NCAA compliance will complement Hofstra<br />

University’s athletic department in its quest to<br />

further enhance its athletic program, and assist<br />

Hofstra’s student-athletes both on and off the field.<br />

The Hofstra Athletic program has flourished under Hayes’<br />

leadership. The Pride captured Colonial Athletic Association (CAA)<br />

championships in volleyball, men’s soccer, wrestling, softball and<br />

women’s lacrosse in 2006-07. Those five programs competed in<br />

NCAA Championship competition, while the men and women’s<br />

basketball programs were selected to compete in the National<br />

Invitation Tournament (NIT).<br />

The five conference champions and seven postseason participants<br />

matched the Pride’s total from 2005-06 as<br />

Hofstra won CAA championships in men’s<br />

soccer, women’s soccer, wrestling, softball<br />

and men’s lacrosse and competed in NCAA<br />

Tournaments in each sport. In addition, the<br />

men and women’s basketball teams were<br />

selected to play in the NIT.<br />

In his first year (2004-05) as Hofstra’s<br />

athletics director, the Pride captured three<br />

CAA championships and advanced to<br />

postseason play in four sports – men’s<br />

soccer, wrestling and softball took part in the<br />

NCAA Tournament, while men’s basketball<br />

participated in the NIT.<br />

Hayes has placed a significant emphasis on<br />

fund-raising during his tenure. Pride Club<br />

membership reached all-time highs, both<br />

in terms of the number of contributors and funds raised. Resources<br />

generated through fund-raising efforts have been used to enhance<br />

programs and facilities available to student-athletes. Recent initiatives<br />

include the construction of Hofstra new field hockey stadium, as<br />

well as the replacement of the artificial turf in Shuart Stadium. In the<br />

last three years there have also been renovations to the study lab in<br />

Active on a national level, Hayes was selected to<br />

serve on the NCAA Division I Lacrosse Committee<br />

in September 2006.<br />

Hayes came to Hofstra University with more than<br />

14 years of athletic administration experience,<br />

including management positions at four Division I<br />

institutions. The three years prior to taking his<br />

current position were highlighted by leading the<br />

University of Connecticut Division of Athletics<br />

fund-raising efforts, where his responsibilities<br />

included managing the operations of the UConn<br />

Athletic Development Fund, implementing policies<br />

and procedures for the annual giving program,<br />

assisting with the cultivation and solicitation<br />

of major gift prospects, coordinating capital<br />

project campaigns, overseeing special events, and<br />

managing the athletic ticketing operation. While at<br />

UConn, he served as a senior staff member for a<br />

$40 million program that supports 24 sports and 650 student-athletes.<br />

From 1998 to 2001 Hayes served as director of athletic<br />

administration at Fordham University, where he was responsible for<br />

the comprehensive internal operations of the athletic department,<br />

including fiscal management, facilities management, staff training and<br />

development, ticket operations, and NCAA compliance initiatives.<br />

Prior to his tenure at Fordham, Hayes served as assistant director<br />

of athletics at St. John’s University, where he managed the fiscal<br />

operations of the athletic department and supervised the business<br />

office. Hayes began his professional career in<br />

college athletics at Fairfield University, where<br />

he served as assistant director of athletics. He<br />

oversaw the addition of four sports programs at<br />

Fairfield – football, women’s rowing, women’s<br />

lacrosse and women’s golf.<br />

Hayes received a master’s degree in education in<br />

1992 with a concentration in sport management<br />

from the University of Connecticut. He holds<br />

a bachelor’s degree (1989) from Providence<br />

College, where he was a member of Providence’s<br />

lacrosse team. He was also awarded a certificate<br />

of completion in 2001 from the Sports<br />

Management Institute, Consortium of the<br />

Universities of Michigan 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 and lacrosse. He was<br />

inducted, as a member of his high school basketball team, into the<br />

Providence Country Day Athletic Hall of Fame in October 2004. He<br />

resides in East Northport, New York, with his wife Bridget, daughter<br />

Katie (5) and son Matt (2).

tHE sHIELd LoGo<br />

In 2005 Hofstra introduced a new logo as part of a<br />

University-wide re-imaging. Both the University’s logo<br />

as well as the Pride logo were designed by advertising<br />

agency Powell New York, a full-service branding and<br />

marketing agency, noted as one of the ten firms to watch<br />

in 2005 in Advertising Age.<br />

The new University<br />

logo features an “H”<br />

within a shield design.<br />

Hofstra University has<br />

always been known<br />

for both a tradition of<br />

academic excellence and<br />

a willingness to evolve to<br />

meet the needs of students<br />

and the greater society.<br />

This shield represents the<br />

University’s commitment<br />

to our heritage and a<br />

tradition of academic excellence, while the dynamic<br />

representation of the H within the shield embodies the<br />

evolutionary, changing nature of the University. Hofstra<br />

University has both honored its traditions and heritage<br />

while embracing changing disciplines, using new<br />

technology and remaining relevant to scholarly pursuits<br />

and the demands of industry.<br />

tHE sEaL<br />

The Hofstra seal was designed from the royal Dutch<br />

emblem by art instructor Constant Van de Wall. The seal<br />

is modeled on the coat of arms of the House of Orange-<br />

Nassau. The round seal includes the coat of arms, flanked<br />

by lions on either side. A<br />

lion also stands in the<br />

center of the coat<br />

of arms, holding<br />

a sword in its<br />

right claw and a<br />

bundle of seven<br />

arrows, which<br />

represent the<br />

seven provinces<br />

of Holland, in<br />

its left. The seal<br />

also carries the<br />

motto of the House<br />

of Orange-Nassau in Old<br />

HOFSTRA SYMBOLS AND HERITAGE<br />

French: “Je maintiendray” (I stand steadfast). In 1988 one<br />

of the two lions on the seal was officially replaced with a<br />

lioness. The Hofstra seal is still in use today, though not<br />

as a logo. The seal will be affixed to formal documents,<br />

and used for official purposes such as commencement,<br />

convocations, and official University functions.<br />

tHE PrIdE<br />

Hofstra’s athletic teams are officially known as the Pride,<br />

providing our teams with a strong, consistent image that<br />

resonates with the Hofstra community. The new Hofstra<br />

Athletics logo consists of a graphic mark of a male and<br />

female lion in powerful, synchronized motion with the<br />

word mark of the Hofstra Pride or the specific sports<br />

team. This logo will be the only one used by Hofstra<br />

Athletics.<br />

The Hofstra Pride refers to a pack of lions, male and<br />

female, which work together towards a common goal<br />

and symbolize determination and strength. The Pride<br />

conveys both the teamwork and togetherness that is a trait<br />

of lions living in prides, who have a close bond and work<br />

together for the good of the entire group. The teamwork<br />

evident in prides is a trait of Hofstra’s student-athletes,<br />

who support each other in furtherance of a common goal,<br />

while working tirelessly to represent their teams and, in<br />

turn, the University. Lions also possess speed, tenacity,<br />

and agility, and are relentless in their pursuit of a goal,<br />

which are traits our student-athletes demonstrate both on<br />

and off the field.<br />

The first consistent use of the word “Pride” relating to<br />

athletics was in 1989 when the University’s athletic<br />

booster club was founded and called itself The Pride<br />

Club, which at the time simply referred to the pride that<br />

alumni and fans had for our teams. The Pride identity has<br />

HOFSTRA SYMBOLS AND HERITAGE<br />

progressed over the past decade in a more specific fashion<br />

than just the expression of a feeling. After one lion on<br />

the Hofstra seal was changed into a lioness to symbolize<br />

gender equity, the University mascots -- Kate and Willie<br />

Pride, a lioness and lion – were introduced.<br />

Hofstra’s dUtCH HErItaGE<br />

Ties to Dutch heritage and the Netherlands began with<br />

William S. Hofstra, after whom the school is named<br />

and on whose property the University was started.<br />

William Hofstra died in 1932 and when his<br />

wife, Kate, died 16 months later, her<br />

will provided that their house,<br />

15-acre estate, and bulk<br />

of her inheritance<br />

were to be used for<br />

a “public, charitable,<br />

benevolent, or<br />

scientific purpose”<br />

as a memorial to<br />

her husband.<br />

The idea for a college came from Truesdel Peck Calkins,<br />

former Hempstead superintendent of schools, who was<br />

then with New York University. He suggested that NYU<br />

might offer extension courses on the Hofstra property.<br />

Hofstra opened in September 1935, as a two-year<br />

extension branch of NYU; its official name was “Nassau<br />

College – Hofstra Memorial of New York University at<br />

Hempstead, Long Island.” When the doors opened, the<br />

sole building on campus was Hofstra’s mansion, which<br />

he had affectionately named the Netherlands<br />

after his homeland, and all classes were<br />

held there. The mansion, which houses<br />

administrative offices, is now the center<br />

of Hofstra’s 240-acre campus, and has<br />

been renamed Hofstra Hall.


Hofstrafootball2007<br />

Joseph M. Margiotta has played an important<br />

role in the history and growth of Hofstra<br />

University for more than six decades. His<br />

dedication to Hofstra and, in particular, to<br />

its Athletic programs, has been steadfast<br />

and tireless. He has often referred to his<br />

relationship with the University as a “love<br />

affair that has lasted over 50 years.”<br />

Joe Margiotta, a long-time resident of Long<br />

Island, attended nearby Hempstead High<br />

School. During World War II he served in<br />

the United States Navy and was stationed in<br />

the Pacific Theater. When his service to his<br />

country had ended, Joe Margiotta entered<br />

Hofstra College in 1946, graduating in the<br />

Class of 1950.<br />

During his years at Hofstra, Margiotta’s<br />

contributions to campus life and the student<br />

body were numerous. The 1950 edition of<br />

the Hofstra yearbook, Nexus, described him<br />

as “one of the best known members of the<br />

senior class ... his accomplishments here<br />

are many ... has done much good for the<br />

College.” Joe was active in many student<br />

organizations at Hofstra. He was President of the Gold Key, a class<br />

officer, a member of the Pre-Law Society, a member of Crown and<br />

Lance Fraternity and, of course, a member of the Flying Dutchmen<br />

Football team.<br />

After graduating from Hofstra, Margiotta continued his education at<br />

Brooklyn Law School, was admitted to the Bar and joined his father’s<br />

law firm. As his career progressed, he became Republican leader for<br />

the Town of Hempstead in 1967 and the party’s county chairman in<br />

1968. He was elected to the New York State Assembly for six terms,<br />

from 1966 to 1977. Throughout his life, Joe Margiotta’s commitment<br />

and contributions to the Hofstra community continued to grow. He<br />

was instrumental in<br />

obtaining state approval<br />

for the establishment of<br />

the Hofstra Law School<br />

and for the construction<br />

of the Hofstra Unispan,<br />

providing a safe link<br />

across Hempstead<br />

Turnpike between<br />

the North and South<br />

campuses.<br />

As an active alumnus,<br />

Joe Margiotta served as<br />

(L to R) Hofstra President Stuart Rabinowitz and<br />

Joseph m. margiotta<br />

HONORABLE JOSEpH M. MARGIOTTA<br />

president of the Hofstra Alumni Association<br />

from 1956 to 1957. He served as a member<br />

of the University’s Board of Trustees<br />

from 1963 to 1965. Twice honored by the<br />

University for his dedicated service to<br />

Hofstra, Joe Margiotta was awarded the<br />

distinguished George M. Estabrook Award<br />

in 1967 and was named Hofstra “Alumnus<br />

of the Year” in 1966. In 2001 Margiotta<br />

received a Doctor of Humane Letters from<br />

the University.<br />

Having been a student-athlete himself, Joe<br />

Margiotta’s lifelong dedication to the growth<br />

and advancement of the Hofstra Athletic<br />

program has been especially significant.<br />

As a member of the Hofstra Stadium<br />

Builders Gate Steering Committee, he was<br />

instrumental in the construction of Hofstra<br />

Stadium. Margiotta was also a founding<br />

member of the Fifty for Hofstra Club,<br />

Hofstra’s first volunteer/alumni organization<br />

created in support of Hofstra Athletics.<br />

In 1989 he was a founding member of<br />

the Hofstra Pride Club, the successor<br />

organization to the Fifty for Hofstra Club.<br />

He is currently president of the Hofstra Pride Club, which provides<br />

critical financial support for the University’s Athletic program. Joe<br />

Margiotta is also an ardent and faithful fan, whose attendance record at<br />

Hofstra Athletic events would be hard to match. In 2006 Margiotta was<br />

inducted into the Hofstra University Athletics Hall of Fame as part of<br />

its inaugural class.<br />

Margiotta presently serves as president of the Dante Foundation of<br />

Nassau County, co-chairman of the American Committee on Italian<br />

Migration, trustee of the Order of Sons of Italy, director of Christa<br />

House, Inc. and honorary director of the Nassau County Association<br />

for the Help of Retarded Children. He is the senior partner in the<br />

law firm of Margiotta and<br />

Ricigliano, with offices in<br />

Uniondale, New York.<br />

Joe Margiotta lives in<br />

MARGIOTTA HALL<br />

Opened in 1992, Joseph M.<br />

Margiotta Hall, a magnificent<br />

three-story, 22,500-square-foot<br />

building, is the centerpiece of<br />

the Hofstra University Football<br />

and Lacrosse programs. The<br />

state-of-the-art field house,<br />

combined with Hofstra’s<br />

15,000-seat stadium, has created<br />

one of the finest I-AA<br />

facilities in the nation.<br />

Margiotta Hall, designed by<br />

Angelo F. Corva & Associates,<br />

features a 3,500-square-foot weight room on the first floor.<br />

The weight room, often considered the showpiece of a football<br />

program, is outfitted with the most advanced strength<br />

training equipment available. The first floor also contains a<br />

spacious 2,600-square-foot Hofstra locker room that accommodates<br />

more than 100 student-athletes. The state-of-the-art<br />

athletic training room, also located on the first floor, has<br />

hydrotherapy and electrotherapy<br />

areas, cardiovascular and isokinetic<br />

equipment, as well as taping areas,<br />

a rehabilitation area, an aerobics<br />

room, and athletic trainer and physician<br />

offices.<br />

On the second floor of the building,<br />

an attractive multi-purpose room,<br />

enclosed by a glass wall, provides a<br />

panoramic view of James M. Shuart<br />

Stadium and its events. Meetings<br />

and receptions for alumni, parents<br />

and friends of the Hofstra Athletic<br />

program are held in this spacious<br />

area. This level also serves as<br />

70 Hofstra UNIVErsItY<br />

Hofstrafootball2007<br />

headquarters for the Men and Women’s Lacrosse coaching<br />

staffs, housing head coaches’ and assistant coaches’<br />

offices, as well as meeting rooms. In 1999 the Pride<br />

Teaching and Learning Center opened on the second<br />

floor of Margiotta Hall. The state-of-the-art computer<br />

lab and learning center features a projection system<br />

and 18 computer workstations, which are connected to<br />

the University network for easy access to the Internet.<br />

Locker rooms for game officials and coaches and a<br />

state-of-the-art video room are also located on this level.<br />

One of the newer additions to the<br />

second floor of Margiotta Hall is<br />

the Hofstra Trophy Room, which<br />

commemorates the achievements<br />

of Hofstra’s Football, Men’s<br />

Lacrosse, Women’s Lacrosse<br />

and Field Hockey teams. Photos,<br />

trophies, plaques and other<br />

awards are on display in this area.<br />

A memorial wall containing the<br />

framed jerseys and plaques of the<br />

three Hofstra Football players<br />

killed on September 11, 2001, is<br />

also on the second floor.<br />

The lower level of Margiotta Hall contains<br />

spacious locker rooms for Hofstra’s Field<br />

Hockey and Men’s and Women’s Lacrosse<br />

teams. Additional equipment, laundry and<br />

storage space can be found in this area as well.<br />

A 178-seat theater and additional meeting<br />

rooms are also located on the lower level.<br />

The lobby of Margiotta Hall contains an<br />

elegant commemorative plaque honoring<br />

donors who have contributed to this<br />

important addition to the Hofstra<br />

University campus. Those endowing<br />

scholarships and those who<br />

have dedicated a room in<br />

Margiotta Hall are also<br />

honored on the plaque.


Hofstrafootball2007<br />

In February 2002 Hofstra’s 15,000-seat<br />

stadium, home to the Pride Football<br />

and Lacrosse teams, was renamed<br />

James M. Shuart Stadium at Hofstra<br />

University. On August 29, 2002, the<br />

Stadium was officially dedicated.<br />

“During Dr. James M. Shuart’s 25 remarkable<br />

years as president of Hofstra<br />

University<br />

we grew from a fine regional institution<br />

to an internationally recognized<br />

university. Although every aspect of<br />

this University has benefited immeasurably<br />

from Jim<br />

Shuart’s leadership,<br />

we believe that his<br />

roots as a student<br />

athlete and his<br />

support of our fine<br />

athletic program<br />

makes the naming<br />

of the stadium particularly<br />

appropriate.<br />

By doing this we<br />

convey our admiration<br />

and respect<br />

for James Shuart<br />

to the thousands of<br />

individuals who use<br />

the James M. Shuart<br />

Stadium at Hofstra<br />

University each year,” said Hofstra President<br />

Stuart Rabinowitz.<br />

In 2007 the artificial turf at Shuart Stadium was<br />

replaced with FieldTurf. The FieldTurf system,<br />

which was installed by Landtek of Amityville,<br />

New York, replicates a natural grass surface,<br />

but offers the durability and cost benefits of<br />

synthetic fields. FieldTurf<br />

is a safe alternative, resulting<br />

in a documented reduction<br />

of sports injuries. The<br />

sand and rubber infill system<br />

is the biggest technical<br />

development that the sport<br />

surfacing industry has seen<br />

in the last 25 years. This<br />

patented technology sets<br />

FieldTurf apart from all<br />

other sports surfaces.<br />

Shuart Stadium, then<br />

known as Hofstra Stadium,<br />

was the benefit of a major renovation and expansion plan that was<br />

completed in the fall of 1996, and has made James M. Shuart Stadium<br />

one of the premier facilities in the Northeast.<br />

The multi- million dollar project included the expansion of the seating<br />

capacity from 7,000 to 15,000; the installation of a network-quality<br />

lighting system for television broadcasts; an Athletic Department of-<br />

JAMES M. SHUART STADIUM<br />

fice building, which houses<br />

the football coaching staff,<br />

and includes a press level<br />

and a club suite level; two<br />

entrance plazas on the<br />

south and west sides of the<br />

Stadium; a facade around<br />

the outside of the Stadium;<br />

additional parking and<br />

landscaping; a pavilion in<br />

the southeast corner of the<br />

Stadium; concession and<br />

souvenir areas; two locker<br />

rooms; the installation of a<br />

scoreboard in the south end<br />

zone; and the reinstallation<br />

of a scoreboard in the north<br />

end zone. James M. Shuart<br />

Stadium is the largest outdoor sports and entertainment<br />

complex on Long Island.<br />

“The renovation and expansion of the Stadium provides<br />

our students, alumni, visitors and friends with a firstclass<br />

facility in which to practice, play or watch their<br />

favorite sport,” stated then-President Shuart. “It is one<br />

of the top on-campus intercollegiate sports facilities,<br />

indoor or outdoor, in the New York metropolitan area.”<br />

Opened in 1963, Shuart Stadium has<br />

served as the site for NCAA Championships,<br />

Nassau County and New York<br />

State High School Championships in<br />

football and lacrosse, world championships<br />

in men’s and women’s lacrosse,<br />

professional soccer, commencement<br />

exercises and cultural events. In 1968<br />

Hofstra Stadium became the third college<br />

facility in the nation to install an<br />

artificial playing surface, following the<br />

University of Houston (The Astrodome)<br />

and Indiana State University (Memorial<br />

Stadium).<br />

Shuart Stadium has become a focal<br />

point of the Long Island sports scene in recent years, serving as<br />

the home of the NCAA Division I Men’s Lacrosse Championship<br />

Quarterfinals, a first round game in the NCAA Women’s<br />

Lacrosse Championship, numerous conference championships,<br />

the Outback Steakhouse Long Island All-Star Football Game,<br />

the Hero’s Bowl, the Long Island Lizards of Major League<br />

Lacrosse, and various Long Island high school and New York<br />

state championship games. The Stadium also served as a home<br />

for the Long Island Rough Riders of professional soccer’s A-<br />

League.<br />

The two largest crowds in Hofstra Stadium history occurred during<br />

the hosting of the NCAA Lacrosse Quarterfinals. A crowd of 12,292,<br />

an NCAA men’s lacrosse championship quarterfinal record and the<br />

largest-ever lacrosse crowd on Long Island, witnessed the 1999 NCAA<br />

quarterfinals featuring Hofstra versus Johns Hopkins and Duke versus<br />

Georgetown, and 10,510 fans attended the 2001 quarterfinals that<br />

featured Hofstra against Syracuse.<br />

THE HOWDY MYERS pAVILION<br />

In October 1998 Hofstra University President Emeritus Dr.<br />

James M. Shuart presided over the dedication ceremony for<br />

the Howdy Myers Pavilion in the south end zone of James M.<br />

Shuart Stadium. Howdy Myers served as Hofstra University’s<br />

director of athletics, head men’s lacrosse coach and head<br />

football coach for a quarter of a century. His extraordinary<br />

coaching talents in both lacrosse and football from 1950 to 1975<br />

made Howdy Myers a legend in both sports.<br />

Myers was personally credited with the tremendous growth<br />

of lacrosse on Long Island, through the creation of scholastic<br />

clinics and demonstrations in the 1950s, and leading the Hofstra<br />

Lacrosse program to national prominence. He was years ahead<br />

of the intercollegiate athletic world with his use of many<br />

coaching innovations in both lacrosse and football.<br />

As Hofstra lacrosse coach, Howdy Myers<br />

coached 26 seasons (1950-75) and recorded<br />

a 214-139-4 record. He coached Flying<br />

Dutchmen teams that captured eight divisional<br />

championships and made four NCAA Division<br />

I Championship Tournament appearances. In<br />

1970 he received the F. Morris Touchstone<br />

Award as the United States Intercollegiate<br />

Lacrosse Association (USILA) Division I<br />

Coach of the Year. In 1971 Howdy Myers<br />

received the Governor’s Trophy for providing<br />

continuous and meaningful contributions to<br />

lacrosse. That same year he received lacrosse’s<br />

highest honor when he was inducted into the United States<br />

Lacrosse Hall of Fame.<br />

As Hofstra’s football coach for 25 years (1950-74), Coach Myers<br />

recorded 15 winning seasons and a 141-98-4 record. In 1959 he<br />

led the Flying Dutchmen to the first undefeated (9-0-0) season in<br />

Hofstra Football history.<br />

Dr. Shuart, who served as a team<br />

captain under Coach Myers in both<br />

football and lacrosse in the early<br />

1950s, praised the coaching legend.<br />

“Howdy Myers had a huge impact<br />

on intercollegiate and scholastic<br />

sports,” Shuart said. “Renowned<br />

for his coaching abilities<br />

throughout collegiate sports, Coach<br />

Myers will always be a Hofstra<br />

legend.”<br />

Howard “Howdy” Myers passed<br />

away in 1980. In 2006 he was<br />

among the inaugural class inducted<br />

into the Hofstra University<br />

Athletics Hall of Fame. Hofstra’s<br />

connection to the Myers family<br />

includes his son, Howard Myers<br />

III, his daughter, Dorsey Donnelly,<br />

and his son-in-law, William Donnelly,<br />

who are all Hofstra alumni.<br />

A portrait sculpture of Howdy Myers,<br />

created by artist Peter Homestead,<br />

stands in front of the Pavilion facing<br />

the Shuart Stadium field. In creating<br />

the sculpture, Mr. Homestead worked<br />

from photographs and consultations with<br />

Coach Myers’ family and friends. The<br />

completed sculpture captures the spirit<br />

and strength of Howdy Myers. Alumni<br />

and friends of Coach Myers have joined<br />

together to establish the Howard M.<br />

Myers Jr. Endowed Athletic Scholarship<br />

in his honor. In 2002 Hofstra created the<br />

Howard “Howdy” Myers Award, which<br />

is presented to a male student-athlete in<br />

recognition of outstanding leadership<br />

and athletic performance.<br />

health care services.<br />

Managing the coverage of every practice and competition event<br />

is Hofstra University’s athletic training staff, which is led by<br />

fourth-year Head Athletic Trainer Evan Malings and features<br />

nine full-time athletic trainers and numerous student athletic<br />

trainers. The athletic trainers provide injury management,<br />

rehabilitation and treatment to the entire Athletic program.<br />

Utilizing three state-of-the-art athletic training rooms, these<br />

professionals work tirelessly to ensure the safe participation of<br />

Hofstra’s student-athletes and to return injured athletes to play<br />

quickly and safely.<br />

Supporting the athletic trainers is team physician Dr. Damion<br />

Martins. Dr. Martins, a physician with Pro Health Care, Inc. in<br />

ACADEMIC SUppORT<br />

Hofstra University is committed to the pursuit of academic and<br />

athletic excellence. The University views participation in intercollegiate<br />

athletics as benefiting the student-athlete in an educationally<br />

enhancing experience beyond any other opportunity available.<br />

Hofstra also realizes the time commitment made by student-athletes<br />

and has committed the facilities and resources to support all<br />

students.<br />

The University Tutorial Program (UTP) provides free tutoring in<br />

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 each subject. They are also able to utilize the various help labs<br />

on campus, which specialize in providing assistance in writing,<br />

business and QM, and biology and chemistry. In addition to this<br />

service, student-athletes are assigned an academic advisor who<br />

helps address the various needs of student-athletes.<br />

The academic advisor emphasizes four areas<br />

in their efforts to ensure the academic success of<br />

Hofstra’s student-athletes.<br />

Area one is academic counseling. Services are<br />

provided in the areas of academic planning, career<br />

planning, personal counseling, and campus and<br />

community referrals. The counselor also meets<br />

with prospective student-athletes, at the coach’s<br />

request, to share the many benefits of a Hofstra<br />

University education.<br />

Area two is academic advising. In an effort to<br />

ease the demand on the Office of Advisement,<br />

the academic advisor also advises first-year and<br />

undecided student-athletes.<br />

Area three is academic monitoring. The UTP<br />

counselor monitors the academic progress of<br />

student-athletes to ensure compliance with Hofstra<br />

University, NCAA and conference regula-<br />

7 Hofstra UNIVErsItY<br />

Hofstrafootball2007<br />

tions. The counselor’s regular communication with the faculty<br />

and coaches provide an opportunity for early intervention should<br />

academic difficulties arise.<br />

Area four is study halls. The University Tutorial Program provides<br />

all athletic study halls with tutors in various subjects and assesses<br />

the needs of individual student-athletes to provide the most effective<br />

study environment. The assessment tool administered by the<br />

UTP is also used to provide various enrichment seminars for the<br />

student-athletes such as time management, writing skills, campus<br />

resources, and surviving the college transition.<br />

In the fall of 1999 a computer lab opened on the second floor of<br />

Margiotta Hall. Funded in part by proceeds from the Joe Gardi<br />

Golf Open, the state-of-the-art computer lab and learning center<br />

features a projection system and 18 computer<br />

workstations, which are connected to the<br />

University network for easy research access<br />

to the Internet. The room was refurbished in<br />

2005 with new furniture and computers. In<br />

addition to the Margiotta Hall computer lab,<br />

a new study area was constructed in 2006,<br />

located in the Physical Fitness Center, which<br />

features numerous computer workstations<br />

and office space for University academic<br />

advisement personnel.

HOFSTRA IN THE COMMUNITY<br />

The Hofstra University<br />

Football program<br />

believes it has a special<br />

responsibility to the<br />

Long Island community.<br />

Thus, whether it’s during<br />

the season or during<br />

those “slow” off-season<br />

months, the Hofstra Football<br />

staff and student-athletes<br />

attempt to be highly<br />

visible in the area.<br />

Several times each year,<br />

the Pride conduct clinics for youth and high school teams and<br />

coaches. These player clinics reinforce the fundamentals of the<br />

game taught by their own coaches. Hofstra players have also<br />

been involved with the Special Olympics, which have taken<br />

place on the Hofstra campus,<br />

volunteering at several<br />

events and participating in<br />

the Opening Ceremonies.<br />

The Pride also sponsor<br />

canned food drives in conjunction<br />

with Long Island<br />

Harvest to assist needy<br />

families in the area.<br />

On the educational side,<br />

Hofstra Football and the<br />

Walnut Street School in<br />

Uniondale, New York, have<br />

instituted the Book Buddies<br />

program. Throughout<br />

the school year Hofstra players go to the<br />

school and work with the elementary school<br />

students in the areas of academics and life<br />

skills. Hofstra’s Student-Athlete Advisory<br />

Committee (SAAC) also takes part in visits<br />

to local elementary schools for reading<br />

programs.

The ECAC Lambert Awards are among the oldest<br />

and historically rich prizes in all of college athletics.<br />

Established in 1936 as the “Lambert Trophy” to<br />

recognize supremacy in eastern college football,<br />

the award has since grown to recognize the best in<br />

Divisions I-A, I-AA, II, and III.<br />

The Lambert Trophy was established by brothers<br />

Victor and Henry Lambert in memory of their<br />

father, August. The Lamberts were the principals in<br />

a distinguished Madison Avenue jewelry house and<br />

were prominent college football boosters. When the<br />

trophy was introduced, several eastern colleges were<br />

among the nation’s elite, including Fordham, which<br />

much to the Lambert family’s pleasure, loomed as<br />

the favorite to win the initial Trophy. The Lambert brothers were<br />

therefore somewhat shocked to find themselves making a grueling<br />

After World War II, college<br />

football teams proliferated,<br />

but with increasing<br />

disparity in goals and<br />

policies. The Lambert Cup<br />

was created in 1957 to<br />

recognize non-Division I-A<br />

programs, and the Division<br />

III award was added in<br />

1966. In 1982, the NCAA’s<br />

I-AA reclassification of<br />

many eastern teams made<br />

it desirable to separate that<br />

division from Division<br />

II, and a new award was<br />

added.<br />

In 1983, the Lambert<br />

family set out to find a<br />

sports organization with<br />

a sincere and involved<br />

interest in college athletics<br />

to sponsor and manage<br />

the awards. They decided<br />

the Meadowlands Sports<br />

Complex could best<br />

follow that tradition and,<br />

the award then became<br />

known as the Lambert-<br />

Meadowlands Awards. In<br />

To be eligible for the Lambert Meadowlands<br />

Awards, a school must be located in the East or play<br />

half of its schedule against eligible Lambert teams.<br />

The territory includes New York, New Jersey,<br />

New England and Pennsylvania while teams in the<br />

Award winner as the team’s most valuable player. He posted four<br />

100-yard receiving games as a senior including a career-best 12catch,<br />

195 yards, one touchdown performance in the season opener<br />

at Stony Brook. He was named the Atlantic 10 Football Conference<br />

Offensive Player of the Week after that game. Smith also tallied<br />

seven receptions for 118 yards and two touchdowns at I-A Marshall.<br />

The Oceanside, CA, native led the Atlantic 10 and ranked 10 in the<br />

FCS in receiving yards per game, and was sixth in the league and<br />

27th in the country in receptions per game. Smith signed a free agent<br />

contract with the St. Louis Rams last spring.<br />

QB ANTON CLARKSON: Quarterback Anton Clarkson concluded<br />

his Hofstra career in 2006 by recording seven 200-yard plus passing<br />

games in 10 contests. On October 7 against Villanova he became<br />

just the second player in Hofstra history to pass for 7,000 career<br />

yards when he passed for 222 yards and one touchdown against the<br />

Wildcats. The Los Angeles, CA native finished the season with 160<br />

completions in 287<br />

OT JED PRISBY:<br />

Offensive tackle and<br />

co-captain Jed Prisby<br />

played in 44th straight<br />

Hofstra games to close<br />

out his Pride career.<br />

After red-shirting the<br />

2002 season, Prisby did<br />

not miss a game after<br />

that. He was a twotime,<br />

third team All-<br />

Atlantic 10 selection,<br />

anton clarkSon<br />

receiving the honor in<br />

both 2005 and 2006.<br />

Prisby also received the Hofstra Mayor’s Trophy following his senior<br />

season for his fine play, team leadership, and good sportsmanship and<br />

fair play both on and off the field of competition. Prisby signed a free<br />

agent contract with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers last spring.<br />

LB CHRIS SEBALD: Senior linebacker Chris Sebald concluded his<br />

four-year college career with the best season of his tenure. He<br />

recorded a career-best 62 tackles, including 25 solo stops, with 5.5<br />

tackles for losses, two sacks, one interception and one forced fumble.<br />

He tallied a career-high 10 tackles against Villanova and added nine<br />

in games against Maine and Northeastern. Chris, the third of three<br />

Sebald brothers to graduate from Hofstra, was the 2006 recipient of<br />

the Ray Malone, Sr. Memorial Unsung Hero Award for his outstanding<br />

play, team leadership, and contributions to the success of the<br />

team. He finished his career with 184 tackles and four interceptions<br />

HOFSTRA’S DEFENSIVE EFFORT AT STONY BROOK BEST<br />

SINCE 1995: Stony Brook’s 111 yards on offense in Hofstra’s<br />

season opening victory was the Pride’s best defensive effort since<br />

1995. On October 21, 1995, the Pride held Charleston Southern to<br />

27 total yards in a 56-6 Homecoming victory at Shuart Stadium. The<br />

Buccaneers of CSU had 41 yards passing and -14 yards rushing in<br />

that contest.<br />

PRIDE DEFENSE: The Pride defense held opponents under 300<br />

yards six times in 2006. Since the 1996 season, when Hofstra held<br />

opponents to under 300 yards in 10 games, only the 1999 team has<br />

posted as many sub-300 yard games. The Pride defense had just<br />

three games in which they held their opponents under 300 yards in<br />

2005. The Pride also held their opponents to 22 points or less in eight<br />

games.<br />

aUGUst 31 at stoNY BrooK<br />

Senior receiver Shaine Smith hauled in 12 passes for 195 yards and the Pride<br />

defense held the Seawolves to just 111 yards on offense as Hofstra downed<br />

Stony Brook, 17-8, in the season opener for both teams at LaValle Stadium.<br />

Pride senior quarterback Anton Clarkson completed 19 of 31 passes for 240<br />

yards and hit Smith with an 11-yard scoring strike in Hofstra’s 14-point third<br />

quarter. The victory is Pride Coach Dave Cohen’s first collegiate head coaching<br />

win.<br />

Hofstra, which defeated the Seawolves, 55-0, last year, faced a different,<br />

tougher and scholarship-armed Stony Brook team on this day, as the game was<br />

a battle of defenses in the scoreless first half. The Pride, which posted their 10th<br />

consecutive victory in as many attempts over Stony Brook, had the only real<br />

scoring opportunity in the waning seconds of the first half.<br />

Pride freshman linebacker Luke Bonus stripped Stony Brook tailback Von<br />

Bryant of the ball at the Seawolves 20-yard line and then recovered the fumble<br />

at the 12 with five seconds to play. Clarkson connected with Smith for a 6-yard<br />

gain but the officials did not acknowledge a timeout request from the Pride<br />

sideline and the half ended scoreless.<br />

The Pride came out inspired in the third quarter and opened the half with an<br />

eight play, 84-yard drive capped by a 12-yard touchdown run by junior Kareem<br />

Huggins. Two plays earlier, Clarkson hooked up with Smith for a 39-yard<br />

completion to the Stony Brook 17-yard line. Hofstra boosted the lead to 14-0<br />

with 29 seconds to play in the third quarter as Clarkson connected with Smith<br />

Shaine SMith<br />

86 Hofstra UNIVErsItY<br />

Hofstrafootball2007<br />

for an 11-yard scoring pass. Like the first Pride score, this touchdown was setup,<br />

two plays earlier, by a 47-yard completion to Smith that moved the ball to<br />

the Seawolves’ 9-yard line.<br />

Stony Brook got on the board 5:41 into the final quarter after a strong defensive<br />

effort pinned the Pride back deep in their own territory. After the Pride was<br />

stopped on their own 2-yard line and forced to punt, SBU sophomore Dwayne<br />

Elay returned the punt 31 yards to the Pride 6-yard line. On the Seawolves’ first<br />

play, after a 2-yard illegal procedure penalty was assessed against the Pride,<br />

quarterback Josh Dudash (22-11-0, 84, 1TD) completed a 4-yard scoring pass<br />

to senior receiver Michael Cosentino (6-55-1). Stony Brook inched closer when<br />

the extra-point kick snap was high and holder Steve Austin scrambled and hit<br />

Kevin Halonski for the two-point conversion and a 14-8 deficit.<br />

But that would be all that the Seawolves would get as the Pride defense held<br />

SBU to just two yards total in the next two possessions while Hofstra junior<br />

kicker Rob Zarrilli booted a 26-yard field goal with 5:28 to play to close out the<br />

scoring in the 17-8 victory.<br />

The Pride, which posted their 22nd season opening victory in the last 24<br />

seasons, held Stony Brook to 27 yards rushing and 84 yards passing while<br />

recording 304 yards including 240 through the air. The 111 total yards by the<br />

Seawolves is Hofstra’s best defensive effort since October 21, 1995, when the<br />

Pride held Charleston Southern to 27 total yards in a 56-6 Homecoming win at<br />

Shuart Stadium.<br />

Running back Ahmad Bradshaw rushed for 152 yards and four touchdowns,<br />

and quarterback Bernard Morris passed for 153 yards and rushed for 151 yards<br />

to lead the Thundering Herd of Marshall to a 54-31 victory over the Pride at<br />

Joan C. Edwards Saturday night.<br />

The Pride were led by receiver Shaine Smith with seven receptions for 118<br />

yards and two touchdowns, and quarterback Anton Clarkson, who completed<br />

25 of 49 passes for 256 yards. Safety David Darby posted 12 tackles, while<br />

linebacker Luke Bonus added 10 stops for the Pride. Bradshaw rushed 14 times<br />

for his game-high 152 yards while Morris completed 20 for 27 passes for 153<br />

yards with two touchdowns.<br />

The Pride opened the scoring on their first possession of the game, going<br />

82-yards on nine plays capped by a 45-yard touchdown pass from Clarkson to<br />

Smith just 3:50 into the contest. Hofstra recorded two big first downs on third<br />

down plays in the drive as Clarkson hit Charles Sullivan for a 15-yard pick-up<br />

on a third-and-seven from the Pride 35-yard line, and the senior quarterback<br />

called his own number for a 1-yard gain later in the drive. The touchdown pass<br />

was also Clarkson’s 43rd in his career, moving him into fourth place on the<br />

Pride’s career touchdown pass list.<br />

On the ensuing Thundering Herd kickoff return by Chubb Small, Hofstra<br />

linebacker Gian Villante stripped the sophomore returner of the ball and Pride<br />

kicker Chris Hanly recovered at the Marshall 20-yard line. Hofstra showed<br />

some razzle-dazzle in its possession as Clarkson pitched to running back Terry<br />

Crenshaw, who ran to the right and then threw back to Clarkson for a 13-yard<br />

gain to the Herd 7-yard line. On the next play, junior running back Kareem<br />

Huggins took the handoff and broke outside for a 7-yard scoring run. Kicker<br />

Rob Zarrilli’s second PAT of the game gave the Pride a 14-0 lead with just 4:55<br />

gone in the first quarter.<br />

But Marshall came roaring back, scoring the next 20 points in the contest. Late<br />

in the first quarter following a Hofstra punt, the Herd took over at their own<br />

34-yard line. Quarterback Bernard Morris scampered 42 yards on a draw play<br />

moving the ball to the Pride 24. On the next play tailback Ahmad Bradshaw<br />

rushed 24 yards for the touchdown. Anthony Binswanger’s PAT closed the<br />

gap to 14-7 with 2:35 to play in the first quarter. The Thundering Herd closed<br />

the gap again 2:11 into the second quarter as Bradshaw rushed 7 yards for a<br />

touchdown to cap a nine-play, 59-yard drive. The extra-point kick attempt was<br />

blocked by Hofstra tackle Ken Sussman.<br />

Marshall took the lead almost four minutes later following a Pride punt. The<br />

two-play 59-yard drive saw Bradshaw score his third rushing touchdown of the<br />

game on a 40-yard run. Binswanger’s extra point gave the Herd a 20-14 lead<br />

with 9:26 to play in the half. The Pride closed the gap to 20-17 at halftime as<br />

Zarrilli booted a 21-yard field goal with 12 seconds to play to conclude a 13play,<br />

75-yard drive.<br />

The Thundering Herd came out flying in the second half and tallied 20 points<br />

in the first 7:43 of the quarter to take command of the game. Marshall opened<br />

the third quarter with a 10-play, 80-yard drive, with Morris hitting Cody Slate<br />

for a 13-yard touchdown and a 27-17 lead with 10:40 to play in the third. On<br />

Hofstra’s next possession, Clarkson was hit by linebacker Dennis Thornton<br />

and fumbled on his own 10-yard line. Herd end Shavar Greer scooped up the<br />

fumble and chugged into the end zone for the touchdown. Sussman blocked<br />

his second extra point of the game and Marshall led 33-17 with 10:13 to play<br />

in the third quarter. After the Herd stopped the Pride on their next possession,<br />

Bradshaw recorded his fourth touchdown of the game, a 30-yard run on a<br />

fourth-and-one play with 7:17 to play.<br />

Hofstra closed the deficit to 40-25 early in the fourth quarter as Crenshaw<br />

rushed 1-yard for the touchdown to cap a seven-play, 36-yard drive. Clarkson<br />

hit Shaine Smith for the two-point conversion and the Marshall lead was cut to<br />

15 with 12:14 to play in the contest. The Thundering Herd scored twice more in<br />

the final eight minutes of the fourth quarter, around a 1-yard Hofstra touchdown<br />

pass from Clarkson to Smith with 2:15 to play. Emanuel Spann caught a 10yard<br />

scoring pass with 7:41 to play and Mike Nolan hauled in a 13-yard pass<br />

with 39 seconds to play, to close out the scoring.<br />

Hofstra finished up with 264 yards in total offense, but minus 5 on the ground.<br />

The Thundering Herd compiled 519 yards on the night, including 313 yards<br />

rushing.<br />

gave Hofstra a 7-0 lead just 2:53 into the game. Later in the period, the Tigers<br />

took advantage of a Hofstra fumble and three plays and 32 yards later Nick<br />

Williams carried the ball 1 yard for the score. The extra point was blocked by<br />

Hofstra end Thomas Massey and the Pride held a 7-6 lead.<br />

The Pride opened up a 14-6 lead with 2:41 to play in the quarter as Terry<br />

Crenshaw rushed 8 yards for a score to cap a nine-play, 71-yard drive. Towson<br />

turned the ball over on a fumble on its next possession and Hofstra took over<br />

at the Tiger 23-yard line. Four plays later, Zarrilli booted the first of three field<br />

goals to give Hofstra a 17-6 lead just 50 seconds into the second quarter.<br />

Towson embarked on its longest drive of the night on the next possession,<br />

going 76 yards in 14 plays with kicker Chris Desautels booting a 21-yard field<br />

goal. After Clarkson was picked off by Trent Covington on the Pride’s next<br />

possession, Schaefer hit Yancey with a 22-yard scoring pass on the first play to<br />

cut the lead to 17-16 with 8:23 to play in the half. But Zarrilli kicked his second<br />

field goal of the game 28 seconds before halftime to boost the Hofstra lead to<br />

20-16.<br />

The Tigers closed to within one point at 20-19 as Desautels booted his second<br />

of the game, this time from 36 yards, 8:45 into the third quarter. But the Pride<br />

responded with 10 unanswered points as Zarrilli kicked his third of the game<br />

with less than three minutes to play in the third quarter, and then Kareem<br />

Huggins, who posted his first career 100-yard rushing game, scored on a 3-yard<br />

run 14 seconds into the fourth quarter to boost the Pride lead to 30-19.<br />

Towson made the Pride a little uneasy when Schaefer hit Marcus Lee for a<br />

15-yard scoring pass in the corner of the end zone with 5:22 to play to cut the<br />

gap to 30-26. Hofstra could not hold onto the ball for longer than five plays<br />

and 2:34, and punted away to Towson, which took over on its own 11-yard line<br />

with 2:42 to play. Schaefer completed seven of 12 passes to move the ball to<br />

the Hofstra 11-yard line with less than 30 seconds to play. On the next play,<br />

Schaefer found Yancey for an 11-yard touchdown pass. Schaefer then hit Ryan<br />

Meehan for a 2-point conversion pass and a 33-30 lead.<br />

The Pride got the ball back on their own 15-yard line with 15 seconds, but<br />

couldn’t move the ball as time ran out. Schaefer completed 43 of 60 passes<br />

for 458 yards and three touchdowns, while Demetrius Harrison (11-129) and<br />

Yancey (10-115-2TD) both went over the century mark in receiving yards.<br />

The Tigers posted 509 yards on the night. The Pride received 117 yards on<br />

17 carries from Huggins, while Smith finished with 72 yards on five catches.<br />

Clarkson completed 15 of 30 passes for 226 yards and one touchdown. Hofstra<br />

Rob Zarrilli booted three field goals, including the game-winner with 7:20 to<br />

play in the fourth quarter, to lead the Pride to a 16-14 victory over the Tribe of<br />

William & Mary in an Atlantic 10 contest at sold out Walter Zable Stadium.<br />

Zarrilli, who saw his consecutive field goal attempt streak end at 13 on the<br />

possession before his game-winning kick, blasted the 47-yard attempt giving<br />

Hofstra the 16-14 lead after the Pride drive ended at the William & Mary 30yard<br />

line. He smacked two field goals in the second quarter, booting a 24-yarder<br />

that gave the Pride a 10-7 lead, and then followed with a 45-yarder, with 47<br />

seconds remaining in the half, that boosted the Hofstra lead to 13-7 at halftime.<br />

The Pride accumulated 344 yards on offense, including 212 yards passing<br />

as quarterback Anton Clarkson completed 18 of 33 passes for 212 and a<br />

touchdown. Wide receiver Charles Sullivan had six catches for 69 yards,<br />

while Shaine Smith hauled in five passes for 76 yards. Running back Kareem<br />

Huggins rushed 16 times for 78 yards to lead the Pride ground game. Hofstra<br />

held William & Mary to 259 yards on the day, including just 70 on the ground<br />

on 29 rushing attempts.<br />

The Tribe opened the scoring on their first possession after the Pride turned<br />

the ball over on downs at the W&M 34-yard line. Quarterback Jake Phillips<br />

directed a five-play, 66-yard drive, completing passes of 45 yards to D.J.<br />

McAulay and 12 yards to Joe Nicholas before hitting Drew Atchison for a<br />

10-yard touchdown pass with 9:14 to play in the quarter. Blair Pritchard’s extrapoint<br />

gave the Tribe a 7-0 lead.<br />

The Pride tied the score 4:38 into the second quarter after the Tribe turned the<br />

ball over on downs at the Hofstra 35-yard line. Clarkson completed passes to<br />

four different receivers in the nine-play, 65-yard drive, including an 8-yard<br />

scoring pass to senior fullback R.C. Scarpa, who scampered into the end zone<br />

for his first collegiate touchdown. Zarrilli’s extra-point tied the game at 7-7.<br />

On William & Mary’s next possession, Hofstra cornerback DeWayne Whitaker<br />

picked off Phillips at the Pride 43-yard line. Hofstra moved the ball to the<br />

Tribe 7-yard line before Zarrilli booted a 24-yard field goal to give the Pride a<br />

2006 GAME SUMMARIES<br />

10-7 lead with six minutes to play in the first half. The key play in the Hofstra<br />

drive was a fake punt that saw linebacker Gian Villante take the short snap and<br />

ramble 36 yards to the Tribe 13-yard line.<br />

Hofstra boosted the lead to 13-7 just 47 seconds before halftime as Zarrilli<br />

kicked a 45-yard field goal to cap an eight-play, 43-yard drive that stalled at the<br />

Tribe 28-yard line. The big play in the drive was a 28-yard reception by Shaine<br />

Smith, on a third-and-18 play, that moved the ball to the William & Mary 35yard<br />

line.<br />

The Tribe took their second and final lead of the game with 4:40 to play in the<br />

third quarter with some razzle-dazzle. On a second-and-four play at the Hofstra<br />

46-yard line, Phillips handed off to tailback Elijah Brooks (15-79), who pitched<br />

back to Phillips. Phillips completed the flea-flicker with a perfect strike to the<br />

wide-open Nicholas for the touchdown. The score capped a nine-play, 77-yard<br />

drive and Pritchard’s extra-point gave the Tribe a 14-13 lead.<br />

After the Pride took the lead on Zarrilli’s field goal, William & Mary had<br />

two cracks on offense to take the lead in the final seven minutes. On the first,<br />

Hofstra allowed just 20 yards before forcing the Tribe to punt the ball away.<br />

On the second, after the Pride punted away with 2:57 to play, giving the Tribe<br />

the ball at their own 34, William & Mary moved the ball to the Hofstra 36-yard<br />

line after a 30-yard completion to Brooks. But Hofstra end Thomas Massey<br />

sacked Phillips back to midfield on first down. Phillips (9-for-22, 189 yards)<br />

hit R.J. Archer for 19 yards to the Hofstra 31 before the Tribe was hit with a<br />

false start penalty, sending them back to the 36. On the third-and-10 play at the<br />

36, Hofstra cornerback DeWayne Whitaker nearly picked off Phillips at the<br />

5-yard line. With the Tribe going for the first down on fourth down, Pride safety<br />

Stephen Tate broke up Phillips pass to Nicholas (3-70-1) with 1:20 to play and<br />

Hofstra took over and ran out the clock.<br />

Pride receiver Shaine Smith recorded six receptions for 152 yards and a<br />

touchdown, but Villanova quarterback Marvin Burroughs rushed for a touchdown<br />

and passed for another to lead the Wildcats to a 20-16 Atlantic 10 victory over<br />

Hofstra at James M. Shuart Stadium.<br />

Smith, who recorded his third 100-yard receiving game of the season for the<br />

Pride, opened the scoring<br />

in the contest with a<br />

32-yard touchdown catch<br />

from quarterback Anton<br />

Clarkson just 4:29 into the<br />

first quarter to give Hofstra<br />

a 7-0 lead. But Burroughs,<br />

who completed 15 of 24<br />

passes for 193 yards in<br />

the contest, tied the game<br />

almost four minutes later,<br />

capping a nine-play, 80yard<br />

drive with a 3-yard<br />

touchdown run. Wildcat<br />

sophomore kicker Joe<br />

Marcoux broke the tie<br />

with 1:47 to play in the<br />

first quarter with a 20-yard<br />

field goal to end a five-play<br />

drive that the Pride stopped<br />

at the Hofstra 3-yard line.<br />

Hofstra junior kicker Rob<br />

play, 67-yard drive. But Marcoux gave Villanova a 13-10 lead at halftime with a<br />

42-yard field goal with just 12 seconds to play in the second quarter.<br />

The Wildcats opened a 20-10 lead on their first possession of the second half as<br />

Burroughs hit Chris Polite with a 15-yard scoring pass that ended an eight-play,<br />

41-yard drive. Hofstra chipped away at the deficit on its next possession as<br />

Zarrilli kicked a 45-yard field goal with 5:18 to play in the third quarter.<br />

The Pride moved closer 5:29 into the fourth quarter as Zarrilli made his third<br />

field goal of the day, this time from 45 yards, following a five-play, 18-yard drive.<br />

It was the third time this season that Zarrilli, a third team All-American by The<br />

Associated Press last season, has kicked three field goals in a game. The rest of<br />

the quarter was all defense, as Hofstra held the Wildcats to 35 yards in its next<br />

two possessions, including stopping Villanova on the Pride 1-yard line three<br />

times. The Wildcats held Hofstra to a total of 11 yards on its two possessions<br />

while recording two sacks. Part of that was a 12-yard rushing loss by punter<br />

Shane Casciano after a bad snap from center.<br />

Hofstra racked up 271 yards on offense, including 222 passing by Clarkson (17<br />

of 22). Kareem Huggins rushed for 63 yards on 19 carries. The Hofstra defensive<br />

charge was led by safety Manny Anderson, with 11 tackles, and senior linebacker<br />

Chris Sebald, with 10 stops. The Wildcats received five catches for 61 yards from<br />

Phil Atkinson, while fullback DeQuese May rushed for 41 yards on nine carries<br />

to lead the ground game. Safety Eugene Clay posted nine tackles for Villanova.<br />

Blue Hens quarterback Joe Flacco completed 20 of 29 passes for 168 yards and<br />

one touchdown as Delaware downed Hofstra, 10-6, in a non-conference game<br />

on Homecoming at Delaware Stadium.<br />

Hofstra safety Manny Anderson led a defensive charge with a career-best<br />

14 tackles as the Pride held UD to just 267 yards on the day. But the Hofstra<br />

offense was held to 262 yards and two Rob Zarrilli field goals. The Pride loss<br />

spoiled the homecoming of Hofstra Coach Dave Cohen, who served as the Blue<br />

Hens’ defensive coordinator from 2002 through last season.<br />

The Blue Hens opened the scoring and posted the winning touchdown on their<br />

first possession of the contest, going 85 yards on 14 plays with Flacco hitting<br />

tight end Robbie Agnone for a 7-yard touchdown. Zack Hobby’s PAT gave the<br />

Blue Hens a 7-0 lead with 8:15 to play in the quarter. The junior quarterback<br />

picked the Pride apart<br />

during the drive, going<br />

six-for-seven for 58<br />

yards while rushing<br />

twice for another 12<br />

yards.<br />

But Hofstra came right<br />

back and went on their<br />

own 10-play, 60-yard<br />

drive before Zarrilli<br />

came in to knock<br />

through a 22-yard field<br />

goal with 4:32 to play<br />

in the first quarter. The<br />

Pride used quarterback<br />

Anton Clarkson almost<br />

exclusively in the drive<br />

as the senior completed<br />

three of six passes for<br />

42 yards and rushed<br />

three times for 18 yards<br />

before the drive stalled<br />

at the UD 5-yard line.<br />

After a promising<br />

offensive start to the<br />

game, the defenses<br />

kicked in after the first<br />

two drives. The Pride<br />

closed the deficit to<br />

7-6 early in the second<br />

eManuel anderSon<br />

quarter as Zarrilli made<br />

his second field goal of<br />

the game, this one from<br />

34 yards 1:47 into the<br />

period to cap a nineplay,<br />

51-yard drive that was stopped at the Blue Hens 17-yard line. Clarkson,<br />

who was 16-for-26 for 182 yards in the game, and running back Kareem<br />

Huggins each had 12-yard rushes for first downs in the drive and receiver<br />

Charles Sullivan hauled in an 11-yard pass for another first down.<br />

Delaware added a 22-yard field goal by Hobby just 24 seconds before halftime<br />

as the Blue Hens went on a 16-play, 81-yard drive that wasted 7:03 off the<br />

clock and boosted the lead to 10-6. Flacco went 7-for-7 in the drive.<br />

The second half was all defense as the Pride held UD to just 64 yards in the<br />

final two periods. In the third quarter, Hofstra held the Blue Hens to -2 yards<br />

and had a chance to cut the deficit after moving the ball to the UD 25-yard line.<br />

But Zarrilli’s field goal attempt was low and stopped at the line.<br />

2006 GAME SUMMARIES<br />

In the fourth quarter the Blue Hens had a chance to widen the gap after moving<br />

the ball to the Pride 1-yard line with 8:45 to play. On the third-and-goal play<br />

from the 1, quarterback Ryan Carty, who entered for two plays in relief of<br />

Flacco, was stripped of the ball by Hofstra end Al Carmody and linebacker<br />

Gian Villante recovered for the Pride. Hofstra then marched down the field,<br />

thanks in large part to a 45-yard completion from Clarkson to Shaine Smith on<br />

a third-and-19 play, before facing a fourth-and-one from the Delaware 27 with<br />

less than four minutes to play. Clarkson’s rush appeared to get the first down<br />

but the officials’ ruled his knee hit the ground a foot short of the marker.<br />

The Pride stopped the Blue Hens after six plays and nine yards and, after the<br />

UD punt, got the ball back on their own 29-yard line with 32 seconds remaining<br />

and no timeouts left. After a gain of five on a pass to Phil Riley and a spiking<br />

of the ball, Clarkson threw a desperation pass that was picked off by Garrett<br />

Schultz at the UD 17 with four seconds to play.<br />

Huggins led the Pride ground game with 10 carries for 58 yards and had two<br />

catches for 12 yards. Sullivan recorded six catches for 78 yards, while Smith,<br />

the national leader in receiving yards per game, finished with four catches for<br />

73 yards for the Pride. In addition to Flacco for Delaware, Kervin Michaud<br />

rushed for 58 yards on 15 carries, while Ben Patrick posted eight receptions for<br />

72 yards.<br />

Tailback Arel Gordon rushed for 118 yards and a touchdown, and the Maine<br />

defense stymied the Pride offense as the 19th-ranked Black Bears of Maine<br />

downed Hofstra, 21-10, in an Atlantic 10 Conference game at Alfond Stadium.<br />

Gordon carried 20 times to post his fifth 100-yard rushing game of the season.<br />

He also led the Maine receivers with six receptions for 32 yards. Maine<br />

quarterback Ron<br />

Whitcomb completed<br />

12 of 19 passes<br />

for 65 yards. The<br />

Pride, which was<br />

The Black Bears,<br />

who came into the<br />

game looking to<br />

avenge a 44-0 loss<br />

at Hofstra in 2005,<br />

scored all their points in the first half. Midway through the first quarter, Gordon<br />

capped a nine-play, 67-yard drive with a 6-yard touchdown run up the middle.<br />

Devin McNeill’s extra-point gave Maine a 7-0 lead with 6:47 to play in the<br />

quarter. Whitcomb boosted the Black Bears’ lead four seconds into the second<br />

quarter with another 6-yard touchdown run up the middle to wrap up an eightplay,<br />

45-yard drive. McNeill’s extra-point gave Maine a 14-0 advantage.<br />

Maine turned to some trickery on the ensuing kickoff, catching the Pride special<br />

teams off guard with an on-side kick that Lionel Nixon recovered for the Black<br />

Bears at the Hofstra 37. After Whitcomb directed the Black Bears to the Pride<br />

5-yard line, Maine went to trickery again, converting a fake field goal attempt<br />

into a 5-yard touchdown run by holder Michael Brusko. McNeill’s extra point<br />

boosted the Black Bears lead to 21-0 with 10:45 to play in the first half.<br />

The Pride got on the board later in the period after cornerback Kyle Arrington<br />

picked off Whitcomb at the Hofstra 42-yard line. It was Arrington’s first career<br />

interception. Davis replaced Clarkson under center and led the Pride on a 10play,<br />

58-yard drive capped by a 7-yard touchdown pass to Shaine Smith. Rob<br />

Zarrilli’s extra-point cut the deficit to 21-7 with 4:17 to play in the half. Hofstra<br />

closed to 21-10 with 50 seconds remaining in the half when Zarrilli booted a<br />

Chris Ward scored on a 13-yard scoring run in the first quarter and Tom Bishop<br />

added a 20-yard field goal in the third quarter to lead the 11th-ranked Wildcats<br />

of New Hampshire to a 10-6 Atlantic 10 victory over the Pride of Hofstra in a<br />

driving rainstorm at Cowell Stadium.<br />

In the driving rain with gusting winds of up to 40 miles per hour, neither team<br />

could move the ball very well in the contest. The Wildcats got on the board on<br />

their first possession following a Hofstra punt as Ward sloshed 13 yards for<br />

the touchdown to cap an eight-play, 39-yard drive. Tom Manning’s extra-point<br />

gave New Hampshire a 7-0 lead 4:32 into the contest. The Wildcats had another<br />

opportunity on their second possession after Pride quarterback Anton Clarkson<br />

mishandled the snap from center and Wildcats safety Muji Karim recovered<br />

the fumble. But the Pride defense stopped UNH and a 40-yard field goal by<br />

Manning fell short.<br />

In the second quarter Hofstra had its first chance to put some points on the<br />

scoreboard following a UNH punt that gave the Pride the ball at the Wildcats<br />

42-yard line. Five plays later, Hofstra moved the ball to the UNH 27 and called<br />

upon Rob Zarrilli for a 44-yard field goal with the wind. But the snap to holder

Chris Manno came back low and was then bobbled, forcing Manno to fall on<br />

the ball and turn it over to the Wildcats. The Pride had 34 offensive yards at<br />

halftime, while UNH, the number one offense in the A-10 and the third ranked<br />

attack in the country, had 86 yards after two quarters.<br />

New Hampshire added some insurance points midway through the third quarter<br />

on a 20-yard field goal by Bishop to conclude a five-play, 14-yard drive.<br />

Hofstra got on the board with 42 seconds remaining in the contest following<br />

a blocked punt that gave the Pride the ball on the UNH 30-yard line with 1:00<br />

to play. Quarterback Dennis Davis, who came into the game in the final period<br />

replacing, Anton Clarkson (5-1-0, 3, 0 TD), hit Shaine Smith for a 37-yard<br />

completion to the Wildcats 3-yard line. On the next play, Davis, who completed<br />

two of five passes for 30 yards in the game, hit Smith in the corner of the end<br />

zone for the touchdown to cut the deficit to 10-6. The snap for Rob Zarrilli’s<br />

extra-point attempt was low and not set when Zarrilli kicked it, and was<br />

blocked by the UNH line. Hofstra’s on-side kickoff attempt then went out of<br />

bounds as the Wildcats took possession of the ball and ran out the clock.<br />

The Pride tallied a season-low 73 total yards on offense, including just 33<br />

passing. Kareem Huggins rushed 17 times for 42 yards to lead Hofstra. Gian<br />

Villante posted his second straight season-high tackle performance by posting<br />

15 tackles. Luke Bonus added 11 stops, while Shemiah LeGrande tallied nine<br />

tackles.<br />

The Wildcats, who were held by the Pride and the storm to a season-low 140<br />

yards-down 310 from their season average-were led by Chad Kackert with 65<br />

yards on 28 carries. New Hampshire’s heralded quarterback Ricky Santos, who<br />

ranks third in I-AA in total offense, completed one of three passes for 11 yards<br />

on the day. Jeff Pammer led the Wildcats defense with 11 tackles.<br />

The visiting Rams scored three touchdowns in the first 11 minutes and staved<br />

off a late Pride comeback as Rhode Island posted a 20-13 Atlantic 10 victory<br />

over Hofstra at James M. Shuart Stadium.<br />

URI quarterback Derek Cassidy completed seven of 12 passes for 170 yards<br />

and one touchdown, while receiver Shawn Leonard posted four receptions for<br />

120 yards to lead the Rams. Hofstra running backs Terry Crenshaw (22-93-1)<br />

and Kareem Huggins (11-85-0) combined for 178 of the Pride’s 267 yards on<br />

the day.<br />

Rhode Island scored on its first possession, going 80 yards in 13 plays with<br />

Cassidy calling his own number on a 1-yard run for the touchdown with 9:26<br />

to play in the first quarter. The extra-point snap was high and the rush attempt<br />

failed. The big play in the Rams drive was a 14-yard run by running back Tim<br />

Allen on a third-and-four-play early in the series.<br />

After Hofstra punted the ball away on its first possession, the Rams took over<br />

on their 49-yard line. On the third play in the series, facing a third-and-14,<br />

the Pride were whistled for pass interference on Tim Allen, giving the Rams<br />

a first down at the Hofstra 41. On the next play, Tolbert Evans rushed for 35<br />

yards to the Pride 6-yard line. Jimmy Hughes rushed the final six yards for the<br />

touchdown. Colin Gallagher’s extra-point was good and the Rams had a 13-0<br />

lead with 5:35 to play in the quarter.<br />

On Hofstra’s next possession, Crenshaw fumbled at the Pride 31 as tackle Chad<br />

Waltrip stripped Crenshaw of the ball and safety Adrian Owen recovered at<br />

the 30. On the Rhode Island’s first play from scrimmage, Cassidy hit Evans<br />

with a 30-yard touchdown pass. Gallagher’s extra-point gave the Rams a 20-0<br />

advantage with 4:49 to play in the first quarter.<br />

The Pride scored 10 points in the second quarter as Crenshaw led a seven-play,<br />

58-yard drive by rushing five times for 30 yards, including a 2-yard scoring run,<br />

and caught a pass for 19 yards in the series. Rob Zarrilli’s extra-point closed the<br />

deficit to 20-7 with 7:14 to play in the half. Zarrilli would then boot a 32-yard<br />

field goal with 49 seconds to play in the half, after an eight-play, 61-yard drive,<br />

to close to 20-10 at halftime. After allowing 167 yards in the first quarter, the<br />

Pride defense stepped up to hold the Rams to -4 yards in the second quarter.<br />

Hofstra inched closer on its opening possession of the second half. Starting<br />

out on their own 32, the Pride marched 53 yards in 15 plays before settling for<br />

a Zarrilli 32-yard field goal with 9:06 to play in the third quarter. The Hofstra<br />

defense stood tall once again, holding the Rams to 53 yards in the period and<br />

two three-and-out possessions in their two series.<br />

In the fourth quarter URI had a chance to add some insurance points, moving<br />

the ball to the Pride 7-yard line for a fourth down play. After taking a penalty<br />

and moving the ball back to the 12-yard line, Gallagher missed a 29-yard field<br />

goal. Hofstra mounted a late drive, starting at their own 28 with 2:07 to play.<br />

Quarterback Dennis Davis (11-27-1, 106, 0TD), who was making his first start<br />

of the season, hit the A-10’s receiving yards leader Shaine Smith for a 12-yard<br />

gain. It was Smith’s first catch of the contest. On the next play, Davis found<br />

tight end Marquis Bonds in the middle of the field for a 25-yard pick-up to the<br />

URI 35-yard line. After an incompletion and a 4-yard run by Huggins, Davis<br />

could not complete third and fourth down passes to Smith and the Rams took<br />

over on downs and ran out the clock.<br />

Hofstra freshman linebacker Luke Bonus had an outstanding game, posting a<br />

career-best 15 tackles, 4 1/2 tackles for losses, forced and recovered a fumble,<br />

and had one sack. Tackle Ken Sussman also posted a career-high with 11<br />

tackles, as did linebacker Greg Vineyard, who started in place of the injured<br />

Gian Villante (ankle) to record 10 tackles.<br />

Running back Alex Broomfield rushed for 154 yards and two touchdowns, and<br />

Maurice Murray rushed for 109 yards and two scores to lead the Huskies of<br />

Northeastern University to a 34-24 Atlantic 10 victory over the Hofstra Pride at<br />

James M. Shuart Stadium Saturday.<br />

Broomfield rushed 20 times for a season-best 154 yards and scored on<br />

touchdown runs of 9 yards in the first quarter and 6 yards in the fourth quarter.<br />

Murray, who posted his fourth 100-yard rushing game of the season, carried the<br />

ball 22 times and scored on a 2-yard run and a 14-yard run in the third quarter.<br />

Hofstra was led by receiver Charles Sullivan’s season-high 11 receptions for<br />

119 yards. The 11 catches were one off of tying his career-best set in 2004.<br />

Receiver Shaine Smith hauled in six passes for 54 yards and had scoring grabs<br />

of 1 yard and 9 yards in the fourth quarter. Senior quarterback Anton Clarkson<br />

completed 24 of 38 passes for 228 yards and two touchdowns.<br />

The Huskies opened the scoring on their first possession, going 70 yards in<br />

seven plays with Broomfield rushing into the end zone from 9 yards out just<br />

3:32 in the game. Mat Johnson’s extra point attempt was good and Northeastern<br />

had a 7-0 lead. The Pride got on the board late in the period, moving the ball<br />

58 yards in 11 plays before settling for a 39-yard field goal by Rob Zarrilli with<br />

2:19 to play in the first quarter. It was Zarrilli’s 17th field goal of the season.<br />

But the Huskies came right back on the next possession and marched 77<br />

yards in five plays, capped by a Shane Hopkins 2-yard run for the touchdown.<br />

The extra point attempt was missed as the lead was stretched to 13-3. The<br />

big play in the drive was a 56-yard pass completion from receiver Ron

passed for 218 yards and two touchdowns to lead the third-ranked Minutemen<br />

of Massachusetts to a 22-16 Atlantic 10 victory over the Hofstra Pride at<br />

McGuirk Alumni Stadium Saturday afternoon.<br />

Baylark rushed 21 times for his sixth 100-yard rushing game of the season.<br />

Coen completed 18 of 31 passes for 218 yards, while receiver Brandon London<br />

caught five passes for 78 yards. Hofstra was led by quarterback Anton Clarkson,<br />

possession of the game on a 34-yard field goal from Chris Koepplin to cap a<br />

10-play, 62-yard drive. After Hofstra punted the ball away on its possession,<br />

the Minutemen went on a 59-yard drive deep into Pride territory. On a firstand-goal<br />

play from the Hofstra 9-yard line, Baylark rushed to the four, was<br />

stripped of the ball by Pride linebacker Gian Villante, and cornerback DeWayne<br />

Whitaker recovered ending the threat.<br />

But UMass benefited from a Hofstra miscue on the next possession as<br />

Minutemen linebacker Jason Hatchell stripped the ball from Sullivan and then<br />

recovered at the Pride 22. On the first play from scrimmage, as well as the first<br />

play of the second quarter, Coen hit J.J. Moore for a 22-yard touchdown nine<br />

seconds into the period. Koepplin missed the extra-point.<br />

Hofstra put some points on the board on the next possession, going 76 yards in<br />

14 plays with Kareem Huggins carrying the ball into the end zone from 2-yards<br />

out with 8:13 to play in the half. Kicker Rob Zarrilli missed the extra-point as<br />

the Pride closed the gap to 9-6. The big plays in the drive were a 14-yard pass<br />

from Clarkson to Sullivan, and a 17-yard completion to Smith. The Pride was<br />

also helped by a pass interference call on a third-and-goal play from the 3-yard<br />

line.<br />

Massachusetts would score twice more before the end of the half. Coen would<br />

direct a four-play, 41-yard drive, after a Hofstra punt, with Brad Listorti<br />

catching a 16-yard touchdown pass with 2:16 to play in the second. Koepplin’s<br />

extra-point gave the Minutemen a 16-6 lead. After Hofstra was held to three<br />

plays and out on its next possession, UMass took over at midfield and went<br />

48 yards on five plays before settling for a Koepplin 19-yard field goal as time<br />

expired in the half. Coen completed three-of-three passes for 35 passes in the<br />

drive.<br />

The Pride closed the gap again early in the third quarter after UMass muffed a<br />

punt and Manny Anderson recovered for Hofstra at the Minutemen 31. Three<br />

plays later, on the halfback option, Terry Crenshaw hit Sullivan for a 9-yard<br />

touchdown reception. Zarrilli’s extra-point made closed the deficit to 19-13<br />

with 11:16 to play in the third quarter.<br />

But the Minutemen came right back and went on an eight-play, 50-yard drive<br />

before Koepplin booted his third field goal of the game, this time from 31<br />

yards, to boost the lead to 22-13 with 7:26 to play in the quarter.<br />

That’s the way the score stayed until Zarrilli equaled his career-best with a<br />

52-yard field goal with 1:27 to play in the contest following an 11-play, 45 yard<br />

drive that stalled on the UMass 35-yard line. The long field goal also tied the<br />

McGuirk Alumni Stadium record set by Sandro Vitiello against Boston College<br />

in 1978.<br />

UMass sacked Clarkson seven times for 35 yards with end David Burris posting<br />

2 1/2 sacks and eight tackles. Linebacker Brad Anderson posted a team-high 12<br />

tackles and one sack. The Hofstra defensive charge was led by Anderson with<br />

13 tackles and a fumble recovery, while red-shirt freshman linebacker Luke<br />

The inaugural season of CAA Football kicks off in 2007 with plans<br />

to take the nation’s premier conference in the Football Championship<br />

Subdivision (FCS, formerly I-AA) to even greater heights.<br />

The conference is coming off a sensational<br />

2006 campaign in which multiple teams were<br />

selected to postseason play for the 16th year<br />

in a row, extending the longest active streak<br />

in the nation. Massachusetts advanced to<br />

the national championship game, becoming<br />

the third different CAA Football team to<br />

reach the finals over the past four years.<br />

New Hampshire quarterback Ricky Santos<br />

earned the Walter Payton Award as the most<br />

outstanding player in the FCS, becoming the<br />

conference’s sixth recipient of the prestigious<br />

honor. James Madison linebacker Akeem<br />

Jordan, Massachusetts defensive back James<br />

Ihedigbo and Maine defensive lineman Matt<br />

King were finalists for the Buck Buchanan<br />

Award, which is presented to the top<br />

defensive player in the FCS.<br />

The quality and depth of CAA Football is<br />

unmatched in the FCS. Ten of the league’s<br />

12 teams have participated in the NCAA<br />

playoffs over the past six seasons and at<br />

least one team has advanced to the national<br />

semifinals in seven of the last 10 years.<br />

In 2004, James Madison claimed the national<br />

championship with a 31-21 triumph over<br />

Montana, becoming the first team to reach<br />

the title game by winning three road playoff<br />

contests since the field expanded to 16 teams<br />

in 1986. Delaware rolled past Colgate 40-0<br />

to capture the national championship in 2003,<br />

becoming the first team to ever post a shutout<br />

in the title game. No other conference has<br />

had two different teams win national titles<br />

in back-to-back years. Massachusetts earned<br />

a national championship in 1998, beating<br />

perennial power Georgia Southern, 55-43.<br />

CAA FOOTBALL<br />

Along with the team accomplishments, the conference has<br />

accumulated numerous individual accolades. Santos joined William<br />

& Mary quarterback Lang Campbell (2004), Villanova running back<br />

Brian Westbrook (2001), Villanova wide receiver Brian Finneran<br />

(1997), New Hampshire running back Jerry Azumah<br />

(1998) and Towson running back Dave Meggett (1988)<br />

as recipients of the Walter Payton Award. James Madison<br />

linebacker Derrick Lloyd received the Buck Buchanan<br />

Award in 2001. New Hampshire’s Sean McDonnell<br />

(2005), James Madison’s Mickey Matthews (1999),<br />

Villanova’s Andy Talley (1997) and Boston University’s<br />

Dan Allen (1993) have earned the Eddie Robinson Award<br />

as the top coach in the FCS.<br />

The CAA Football geographic footprint encompasses<br />

much of the East Coast with schools located from Maine<br />

to Virginia. Members include Delaware, Hofstra, James<br />

Madison, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire,<br />

Northeastern, Rhode Island, Richmond, Towson, Villanova<br />

and William & Mary. While CAA Football officially<br />

begins March 1, 2007, its roots date back more than 60<br />

years.<br />

On December 3, 1946, the Code of the Yankee Conference<br />

went into effect. Established as an all-sports conference<br />

for the New England land grant colleges, the six charter<br />

members included Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts,<br />

New Hampshire, Rhode Island and Vermont. Upon<br />

the formation of Division I-AA football in 1978, the<br />

league disbanded all sports except football. Delaware<br />

and Richmond were admitted to the conference in 1986,<br />

Villanova was added in 1988 and James Madison,<br />

Northeastern and William & Mary joined the league in<br />

1993.<br />

The Atlantic 10 assumed operation control of the<br />

conference from 1997-2006, with Hofstra becoming part<br />

of the league in 2001 and Towson joining the group in<br />

2004.<br />

Since 1978, CAA Football members have accumulated 64<br />

playoff berths, 17 Lambert Cups, 77 final top 25 rankings<br />

and 37 final top 10 rankings.<br />

Three of four Hofstra turnovers resulted in Blue Hen touchdowns,<br />

including a 100-yard interception return by Paul Williams as Delaware<br />

defeated the Flying Dutchmen, 38-17 in the first round of the NCAA<br />

FCS playoffs at Delaware Stadium. In a scoreless game after Delaware’s<br />

second possession, Hofstra returner Cedric Johnson fumbled a<br />

punt on the Dutchmen 11 setting up the Delaware’s first score of the<br />

day. Five plays later, Kai Hebron scored the first of his two touchdowns<br />

on the day. Early in the second quarter, Dutchmen quarterback<br />

Kharon Brown’s pass was intercepted by Ken Bailey, who returned<br />

the ball 54 yards to the Hofstra 32-yard line. Eight plays later, Hebron<br />

notched his second touchdown of the game on a 3-yard run. After a<br />

Delaware field goal, Hofstra got on the board with a 1-yard run by<br />

Brown. But the Blue Hens started putting the nails in the coffin<br />

when quarterback Leo Hamlet led Delaware on a seven-play, 65-yard<br />

drive resulting in a 24-yard touchdown pass to Courtney Batts just four<br />

seconds before halftime. The Dutchmen opened the second half with<br />

a nine-play drive resulting in a 5-yard scoring pass from Brown to<br />

Erik Michael to close the gap to 24-14. But Delaware answered with a<br />

four-play, 73-yard drive resulting in a 19-yard scoring run by Hamlett.<br />

Trailing 31-17 with less than two minutes to play, Kharon Brown<br />

was intercepted by Williams, who took the ball the length of the field<br />

for the touchdown. Delaware rushed for 241 yards including 59 by<br />

Hamlett and 57 by Hebron. Jimmy Jones, who rushed for 125 yards on<br />

19 carries, and receiver Robert Grogan, who caught 10 passes for 78<br />

yards, led Hofstra.<br />

firSt round - at delaware:<br />

Despite being held to just 225 yards on the day, the Blue Hens of Delaware<br />

took advantage of four Hofstra miscues to score all of its points<br />

and take a 24-14 victory over the Flying Dutchmen in the first round of<br />

the FCS playoffs at Delaware Stadium. Delaware jumped out to a 17-0<br />

lead at halftime on a 1-yard touchdown run by Andre Thompson, a 47yard<br />

field goal by Sean Leach, and an 8-yard blocked punt return by<br />

Jamie Belle. Thompson’s score was set up after Hofstra punter Dave<br />

Ettinger let the snap go through his hands leaving the Blue Hens with<br />

the ball on the Hofstra 13-yard line. Four plays later, Delaware had a<br />

touchdown. Leach’s field goal came following a Giovanni Carmazzi<br />

interception while Belle’s score came after Brian Smith blocked<br />

Ettinger’s punt on the Hofstra 8-yard line. Delaware boosted the lead


Hofstrafootball2007<br />

to 24-0 in the third quarter when Mike Pearson picked off a Carmazzi<br />

pass and went 64 yards to the Hofstra 1-yard line. Craig Cummings<br />

went up the middle for the score one play later. Hofstra did get touchdown<br />

receptions from Bryan Kish in the third and fourth quarters, but<br />

it was too little, too late. Hofstra outgained Delaware, 361-225, but<br />

couldn’t overcome its own miscues.<br />

field goal three minutes into the second period to boost the Lehigh lead<br />

Flying Dutchmen on a nine-play, 67-yard drive capped by a 1-yard dive<br />

QuarterfinalS - VS. illinoiS State<br />

Freshman quarterback Dusty Burk completed 31 of 37 passes for 350<br />

yards and two touchdowns as the Redbirds of Illinois State ended Hofstra’s<br />

season with a 37-20 victory over the Dutchmen in a FCS playoff<br />

quarterfinal game at Hofstra Stadium. The loss ended the spectacular<br />

career of Dutchmen quarterback Giovanni Carmazzi, who completed<br />

28 of 35 passes for 291 yards and two touchdowns before leaving<br />

the game early in the fourth quarter with a knee injury. Running back<br />

Jimmy Jones, who caught nine passes for 116 yards and rushed 14<br />

times for 51 yards in the contest, gave Hofstra the early 7-0 lead with<br />

a 4-yard scoring run late in the first quarter. But Jake Strader’s 32-yard<br />

field goal with 3:15 to play started a 24-0 run for the Redbirds that<br />

gave them a commanding 24-7 lead at halftime. The second quarter<br />

was especially devastating for the Dutchmen as Illinois State ran up<br />

217 yards of offense while holding Hofstra to 43, and scored two<br />

touchdowns off of Dutchmen fumbles. ISU running back Willie Watts<br />

scored twice in the quarter on runs of 4 and 5 yards. Hofstra seemed<br />

to get back on track in the third quarter, marching 71 yards on the first<br />

possession of the second half capped by a 35-yard scoring pass from<br />

Carmazzi to Jones. But ISU responded two possessions later with a<br />

6-yard scoring pass from Ryan Spielman to Tom Bardwell to boost<br />

the Redbird lead to 30-13. Carmazzi then led Hofstra on an 11-play,<br />

73-yard drive capped with a 13-yard scoring pass to Bill Morales. The<br />

touchdown closed the Hofstra gap to 30-20 with 3:42 to play in the<br />

third quarter. But ISU, once again, scored as Burk engineered a nineplay,<br />

80-yard drive in 3:30 and hit Steve Kostro with a 34-yard scoring<br />

pass to bump the lead to 37-20. Hofstra did not want to go quietly as<br />

Carmazzi drove Hofstra from its own 20-yard line to the ISU 12-yard<br />

line. But the wind came out of Hofstra’s sails when Carmazzi was<br />

sacked and knocked out of the game on the next play and Rocky<br />

Butler was picked off at the goal line two plays later. It would be the<br />

closest either team would get to the end zone the rest of the way. Bill<br />

Morales (73 yards) and Steve Jackson (47 yards) each caught seven<br />

passes for Hofstra. Rickey Garrett (90 yards) and Aveion Cason (88<br />

yards) each caught seven passes for Illinois State. Cason led ISU’s<br />

ground attack with 59 yards on 10 carries as the Redbirds tallied 540<br />

yards on offense to Hofstra’s 425.<br />

firSt round - at furMan<br />

Rocky Butler completed 19 of 34 passes for 262 yards and a touchdown<br />

and also rushed for two scores and Trevor Dimmie posted his<br />

eighth 100-yard rushing game of the year to lead the 11th-seeded Pride<br />

of Hofstra to a 31-24 victory over the sixth-seeded Paladins of Furman<br />

in a FCS playoff opening round game at Paladin Stadium. After the<br />

two teams played to a 10-10 tie after the first 30 minutes, Hofstra took<br />

a 17-10 lead at the 9:32 mark of the third quarter on a 2-yard scoring<br />

run by Rocky Butler. But Furman’s Louis Ivory, I-AA’s leading rusher<br />

in 2000, tied the score three minutes later with a 3-yard scoring run<br />

before lady luck smiled on Hofstra. With just 25 seconds to play in the<br />

quarter, Butler threw a 39-yard scoring pass to Kahmal Roy that was<br />

deflected by a Furman defensive back on the goal line. Roy followed<br />

the deflection and caught the ball in the end zone for the touchdown<br />

and a 24-17 lead. Hofstra stopped Furman on its next possession and<br />

forced the Paladins to punt at the Furman 30-yard line. The punt-snap<br />

sailed over the head of Furman punter Lee Willis toward the goal line.<br />

Willis chased the ball back to the one-yard line and kicked the ball out<br />

of the end zone causing an illegal touch penalty, giving Hofstra the ball<br />

at the 1-yard line. Butler rushed the ball in for Hofstra giving the Pride<br />

a 31-17 lead. Furman came right back and went on an 11-play, 65-yard<br />

drive with Justin Hill scoring on a 5-yard run to close the gap to 31-24.<br />

Hofstra had two more possessions to put a little cushion on the scoreboard<br />

but could not move the ball and the Hofstra defense stopped the<br />

Furman offense inside of three minutes remaining twice. On Furman’s<br />

final possession, taking over with 1:31 to play at their own 24-yard<br />

line, the Paladins moved the ball to the Hofstra 20-yard line. But the<br />

Hofstra defense stood tall once again, and after a first down pass for a<br />

gain of five, stopped Hill for a loss of three yards before two incompletions<br />

gave the ball back to the Pride with 16 seconds to play. Hofstra<br />

outgained Furman on the muddy field 462-400 as Dimmie rushed for

All-American Adrian Peterson led a potent Eagle ground attack with<br />

146 yards and two touchdowns on 32 carries and quarterback J.R.<br />

Revere rushed for 94 yards and three touchdowns on 18 carries to<br />

lead top-ranked Georgia Southern to a 48-20 victory over the Pride at<br />

Paulson Stadium. The Eagles rushed for 430 yards and added another<br />

92 through the air to outgain Hofstra, 522-394. The first nine minutes<br />

of the contest were fairly quiet as Hofstra had the first chance to<br />

score but missed a 51-yard field goal. After the Eagles and Pride went<br />

HOFSTRA pLAYOFF HISTORY<br />

three-and-out, Revere got Georgia Southern going. On three consecutive<br />

eight-play drives Revere scored on 5, 17 and 3-yard runs to give<br />

the Eagles a 21-0 lead early in the second quarter. Hofstra kicker Chad<br />

Johnson put Hofstra on the board with a 20-yard field goal before Scott<br />

Shelton booted a 25-yard field to close out the first half scoring with<br />

the Eagles ahead 24-3. Peterson had 82 yards, Revere had 54 yards and<br />

Mark Myers added 45 ground yards for Georgia Southern in the first<br />

half alone. Any hopes for a second half Hofstra rally quickly dissipated<br />

on the first possession as Myers rushed for 45 yards and Peterson<br />

added 27 in the Eagles eight-play, 72-yard drive with Peterson scoring<br />

from one yard out. After Hofstra could not move the ball on its next<br />

possession, Georgia Southern went on a seven-play, 59-yard drive with<br />

Peterson scoring from three yards out to give the Eagles a 38-3 lead.<br />

Rocky Butler would score Hofstra’s first of two touchdowns on the day<br />

on the next possession on a 13-yard run. Shelton and Johnson would<br />

exchange field goals once again before Mike Youngblood picked off<br />

a Butler pass and went 52-yards for a Georgia Southern touchdown.<br />

Hofstra back-up running back Tyree Johnson, who gained 93 yards<br />

on 13 carries in the contest, posted the Pride’s last touchdown on a<br />

two-yard run early in the fourth quarter. Freshman sensation Trevor<br />

Dimmie rushed for 112 yards on 19 carries for the Pride, while Butler<br />

completed 17 of 33 passes for 169 yards.<br />

firSt round - at lehigh<br />

Lehigh kicker Brian Kelley booted a 24-yard field goal in the first<br />

overtime to cap a late Mountain Hawk rally as Lehigh, the Patriot<br />

League champions, ended Hofstra’s season with a 27-24 victory in the<br />

first round of the FCS playoffs at Goodman Stadium. Hofstra jumped<br />

out to a 14-0 lead late in the first quarter as Trevor Dimmie scored on<br />

a 2-yard run and Kahmal Roy hauled in a 38-yard scoring pass from<br />

Rocky Butler. Lehigh got on the board midway through the second<br />

quarter as Sam Roberts b locked Joe Nolan’s punt and then recovered<br />

the ball in the end zone. Hofstra boosted the lead to 17-7 just 50 seconds<br />

before halftime on a 33-yard field goal by Chris Onorato. But Lehigh<br />

closed the gap to 17-10 as Kelley hit a 32-yard field goal as time<br />

in the first half expired. Hofstra’s advancement in the playoffs looked<br />

promising midway through the third quarter after Doug Shanahan<br />

picked off a Brant Hall pass and returned it 27 yards for a touchdown<br />

and a 24-10 lead. But Lehigh Coach Pete Lembo made a change after<br />

the next possession that would help change the Mountain Hawks’<br />

fortunes. Replacing Hall with Luke Ciannello, Lehigh immediately<br />

scored on an 86-yard scoring pass to Michael Sutton to cut the deficit<br />

to 24-17. The score remained that way until late in the fourth quarter<br />

when it appeared as if Hofstra would add an insurance score, moving<br />

the ball to the Lehigh 5-yard line on a 45-yard drive in 4:48 before<br />

Trevor Dimmie fumbled a pitch and gave the Mountain Hawks the<br />

ball on their own 8-yard line with 3:07 to play. Ciannello engineered a<br />

14-play, 92-yard drive with Jermaine Pugh catching a 4-yard scoring<br />

pass from Ciannello with 19 seconds to play in regulation. Kelley’s<br />

PAT tied the game at 24 as the contest headed into the sudden victory<br />

overtime tiebreaker. Hofstra was able to move the ball from Lehigh<br />

25-yard line to the 8 before Abdul Byron recorded a spectacular interception<br />

near the goal line. Lehigh ran four rushing plays, one by Ciannello<br />

and three by Pugh to get the ball to the Hofstra 7-yard line before<br />

Kelley booted the game-winner on second down. Ciannello completed<br />

13 of 19 passes for 249 yards and two touchdowns, while Michael<br />

Sutton hauled in six passes for 141 yards and a touchdown as Lehigh<br />

outgained Hofstra, 468-433. Dimmie rushed 37 times for 144 yards<br />

and a touchdown, Butler completed 19 of 35 passes for 257 yards, and<br />

Roy caught eight passes for 133 yards and a score to lead Hofstra.<br />

HOFSTRA IN THE PROS<br />

In 2006, for the first time in Hofstra history,<br />

two Pride players were selected in the<br />

National Football League Draft. Offensive<br />

tackle Willie Colon was selected in the<br />

fourth round by the World Champion<br />

Pittsburgh Steelers, while wide receiver<br />

Marques Colston was picked by the New<br />

Orleans Saints in the seventh round. Hofstra<br />

quarterback Giovanni Carmazzi, who<br />

was chosen in the third round of the 2000<br />

National Football League Draft at Madison<br />

Square Garden, is the highest NFL-drafted<br />

Hofstra player in school history. He eclipsed<br />

Lance Schulters, who was picked by San<br />

Francisco in the fourth round of the 1998<br />

NFL Draft. In the Canadian Football<br />

League, Patrick Dorvelus is Hofstra’s<br />

highest-ever draft pick. He was selected fifth<br />

in the first round of the 2002 CFL Draft.<br />

The following Hofstra<br />

University football players<br />

signed contracts to play<br />
