Hofstra comes to HC with a 3-5 record, most recently a 6 pt loss to Sacred Heart at home. Their 3 wins are over teams with losing records, Iona, St.Bonnies and Stetson. Did you know that Manis is 12th in the nation in scoring and 11th in rebounding. Another great opportunity for a W.

Did you know that Manis is 12th in the nation in scoring and 11th in rebounding. Might need to set up a "Manis Watch" thread, as she continues to move inexorably up the ladder in the Holy Cross record book. She will likely be in the Top Ten in points, rebounds, and free throws by the end of this, her junior season.

Manis looks much stronger this year. It is obvious she put in some work in the offseason. Having Swords playing well so far and LaBarbera scoring has taken some of the defense's attention off of Manis.

Swords like Gulliver amongst the Lilliputians. Nice for HC to have a hight advantage.

Look like Hofstra is pining their chances on 3 balls from downtown. They came back from 2-10 to make it a one point game...then Manis scored to start HC off again. HC now leads 20-15.

Pride start the 2nd Q with a run of 6 straight to close the gap...once again Manis stops the run with a bucket.

This is the type of game where HC really misses Faulkner's outside defense, hope she's back soon, whatever her injury might be.

Women don't seem to have the set plays with cuts, give and go, etc. like the men do. It would be good to slow it down and use size advantage.

HC up 38-17 in rebounds...except that there were two series of 3 off. reb followed by an HC turnover in each case. Six rebounds = 0 points.
