Hofstra Ice Hockey
hosted Suffolk County Community College in an exciting match up at their new
home rink at Twin Rinks at Eisenhower Park on Saturday, October 18th. The
atmosphere was lively as both the Hofstra Dance Team and Hofstra mascot ‘Kate” were
in attendance to support the Pride. The home side took an early lead and
maintained it, holding a 4-2 lead entering the third period. Suffolk’s depth
off the bench proved to be the difference between the sides, and the Sharks came
away with a 7-4 victory, following a flurry of goals in the last 10 minutes of
play.
Hofstra Crew sent
two boats to the biggest race in the world, the Head of the Charles, in Boston,
