With two teams ranked in the nation's top 20 in RPI, the Hofstra women's basketball team had its three game winning streak snapped by Ivy League powerhouse Princeton, 74-69 on Thursday night.

A packed Mack Sports Complex of 4,258 fans saw the Hofstra men's basketball team defeat Iona College 83-75 for the Pride's third straight victory. After a shaky first two months of the season, including a four game losing streak, Hofstra improves to 6-7 on the season.

The Hofstra University men's basketball team made it two straight wins with a decisive 82-59 victory over Colgate before entering its final out of conference match-up against Iona next week.

Holding a 71-69 lead with 2.9 seconds remaining, a lay-up by Marist guard Casey Dulin as time expired was waived off by the referees as it came out of her hands just a little too late, to give the Pride its third straight victory and the New York Life Holiday Invitational championship.

The Hofstra University women's basketball team advanced to the New York Life Holiday Invitational championship game with a 67-60 win over Central Connecticut State.

JERSEY CITY, NJ-- The Hofstra University women's basketball rebounded from its first loss in a month with a 66-52 win over St. Peter's on Sunday afternoon.

There was something ominous in the eyes of senior guard Mike Moore on Saturday night.

"We have to learn how to win."

That was the message given by Hofstra men's basketball head coach Mo Cassara after the Pride's 68-59 loss to Manhattan University Saturday night at the Mack Sports Complex. The loss was Hofstra's fourth in a row, dropping its record to 3-7 on the year.

STATEN ISLAND, NY- Count from one to 869. In seconds, that equates to 14 minutes and 29 seconds, which is the amount of time in the second half the Hofstra University men's basketball team went without making a field goal in its 58-43 loss to Wagner.

Things to do on campus and in the city in December after finals have ended and boredom sets in.

Even though Jim Metzger only reconnected with Hofstra University in 2007, he quickly made a big impact for Hofstra Athletics. It has been recently announced that Metzger has made a $1.5 million commitment to support Hofstra Athletics.

Since this is my last chance to flood the masses with the vast pool that is my wisdom, I thought I'd end on a reflective, enlightened note.

 With the year and academic semester coming to an end, this provides me with the chance to inform you of a few things I have come to appreciate while being in London. No, there won't be talk of how drinking is better here; that would be petty. Rather, this will be a chance to salute Hofstra for the things it does well, while at the same time offering a small bit of advice.
