Hempstead, NY – On the heels of the Hofstra Men's Basketball non-conference schedule being released last week, the Colonial Athletic Association announced the CAA slate for the upcoming 2015-16 season today.
Hofstra will have a pair of games air on national television as the February 13 game at Delaware (5 p.m.) and the February 21 home game against Northeastern (2 p.m.) will both be televised by the NBC Sports Network.
This schedule is subject to change and times for all contests will be announced at a later date.
For ticket information please contact the Hofstra Athletics Box Office at (516) HOF-TIXX.
The CAA schedule starts with a special New Year's Eve home game against Delaware on December 31 before Hofstra heads to Towson for its first road conference contest on January 2.
The Towson game starts a quick three-game road trip for the Pride as the Hofstra heads south to face Charleston (January 7) and Elon (January 9).
After opening conference action with three of its first four on the road, Hofstra will then play four of its next five in the friendly confines of the David S. Mack Sports and Exhibition Complex beginning with a game against Drexel on January 14.
During the five-game stretch the Pride will also host James Madison (January 16), William & Mary (January 23) and Elon (January 28), with the lone road game during that stretch being at Northeastern on January 21.
The month of January closes with a game at Drexel to conclude the season series against the Dragons.
Hofstra then opens the final month of the regular season with a home contest against UNCW on February 4, with the Seahawks being the last CAA opponent the Pride will have yet to face up to that point.
The Pride will then encounter their second stretch of three straight road games as Hofstra visits James Madison (February 6), William & Mary (February 11) and Delaware (February 13).
Hofstra's final four games of the regular season will see the Pride be at home for three of the four, with the lone road tilt being a contest at UNCW on February 25. The trio of home games over the final two weeks of the regular season include games against Towson (February 18), Northeastern (February 21) and Charleston (February 27).
The 2016 CAA Men's Basketball Championship will once again be held in Baltimore, MD at the Royal Farms Arena. Tournament play opens with the first round on Friday, March 4. The championship game is slated for Monday, March 7.
