Hofstra Basketball Today

Today we went to Hofstra to see their basketball team beat Drexel 70-68.

Hempstead, NY -- Senior forward Adrian Uter (Queens, NY) celebrated Senior Day with 13 points and 11 rebounds as the Hofstra Men's Basketball team held off a late Drexel rally to capture a 70-68 win in its regular season finale on Saturday at Hofstra Arena.

With the win, the Pride concludes the regular season at 22-5 and 14-4 in the CAA, the second-best regular season in its Division I history (behind only the 23-4 mark of the 2000-01 team). Hofstra also ended up with the third seed in the upcoming CAA Tournament, and will open play on Saturday, March 4 at 8:30 p.m. at Richmond Coliseum in the last quarterfinal of the day against the winner of the Friday opening round contest between sixth-seeded VCU and 11th-seeded William & Mary.
