Hempstead, NY - The Hofstra Department of Athletics will host its annual "Winter Homecoming" this February 5 and 6. 

The action-packed weekend will feature a pair of Hofstra basketball games at the David S. Mack Sports and Exhibition Complex as the men will host James Madison on Saturday and the women will entertain Northeastern on Sunday. Both contests will tip-off at 2 p.m. 

The first 1,000 fans in attendance at the men's basketball game will receive a free Hofstra Pride t-shirt and the first 500 at the women's basketball game will receive a free Hofstra Pride t-shirt as we WHITE OUT THE MACK!
