The Hofstra Pride men’s lacrosse team took a heart-breaking 13-5 loss against their in-city rivals, the Stony Brook Seawolves. In every aspect of the game, the Pride was outplayed. The first quarter really set the tone for the rest of the game. The Seawolves offense came out firing on all cylinders with seven goals, and leading the way was Challen Rogers and Brody Eastwood, each scoring two goals. The Pride…
Last year around this time, I took the schools who made the NCAA basketball tournament and decided to look at it from a lacrosse perspective. Several websites and sports blogs will do this for football or other sports, because most of those schools have division one or at least varsity programs. Lacrosse is different, and most of these will be club teams, which certainly makes this an interesting exercise. This…
An 8-5 victory against 20th-ranked Ohio State Buckeyes was what the Hofstra Pride needed after losing to Georgetown the previous week. Head coach Seth Tierney knew how important the victory was for Hofstra. “It’s not an easy game to win. They’re a Big Ten team with some guys that are big, strong, and fast and play a canadian-like offense but defensively, we were up for the challenge. It goes back…
Myles Jones, Duke, M (Atlanta Blaze) – Duke went into their game against Loyola after two hard back-to-back losses against Harvard and Richmond.

Dylan Donahue, Syracuse, A (Charlotte Hounds) –…
The third-ranked Orange return to the Carrier Dome for their only home game of the month to take on in-state rival St. John’s at 4 PM. The Orange enter the game with a 4-0 record, with their last game coming off of a win against Virginia 14-13 last week in Charlottesville. Meanwhile, the Red Storm are 1-5, but gave Yale a run for their money, as they were up 7-1…
It’s time for some teams to prove one of two things. Either they’re contenders when May comes around, or they still need some work to do. It’s been about a month since the season got underway, and we’ve seen Towson, Hofstra, and even Rutgers rise into the Top 20, while Duke, Virginia, and Georgetown have been disappointments thus far. But is this the biggest weekend of the season? Sure there’s been…
If there were ever a game as weighted as Denver and Notre Dame this weekend, it was last year’s semifinal match up between these two power houses. Notre Dame lost to Duke in the 2014 Championship, and again to the Pioneers in a semifinal thriller that included a late comeback down to the wire, taking the game to sudden death overtime where Denver stole the show. The Irish are hungry…
An early season lacrosse tilt between the Canisius College Golden Griffins (Buffalo, NY) and the University of Vermont Catamounts (Burlington, VT) had a distinctly Canadian vibe to it. While seeing the names of Canadian athletes and coaches on NCAA rosters is not uncommon nowadays, something groundbreaking took take place during the game on March 9, 2016. For the first time in NCAA Division I lacrosse history, a game was played…
