VB: Busy Week For Hofstra; Including Home Opener on Friday

Hempstead, NY – The Hofstra Volleyball team will look to continue its solid play as of late when it takes on Seton Hall on Tuesday before finally playing at home this weekend. 

Hofstra (5-5) will travel to Seton Hall on Tuesday and then host the Hofstra/Asics Invitational on Friday and Saturday. The Pride will welcome Binghamton, Bryant and Syracuse to Hempstead for the two-day tournament and will face the Bearcats in its home opener on Friday at 6 p.m. 

There will be live video and live statistics for all of Hofstra's matches this week. Links are available on this page or on the volleyball schedule page at GoHofstra.com. Pride Productions will produce the home matches.

Hofstra enters this season having won six straight home openers. In addition, Hofstra is 107-32 (77%) all-time against teams from the state of New York in its history and will put that stellar mark to the test this week with two more matches against New York State teams. The Pride is 2-0 versus New York State teams this season. 

The Pride has won four of its last five matches, including a 3-1 week last week as Hofstra defeated Stony Brook on the road before wins over Furman and Tennessee State and a loss to Alabama at the Hampton Inn Bama Bash in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. 

Hofstra is 8-6 all-time against Seton Hall, 1-2 against Binghamton, 2-0 against Bryant and 7-4 against Syracuse. The Pride last face Seton Hall a season ago (W 3-2), last faced Binghamton in 2009 (L 0-3), last faced Bryant in 2014 (W 3-0) and last faced Syracuse in 2016 (W 3-0).
