Favorite Memory of Hofstra: My favorite memory of Hofstra is being part of the wrestling team and part of the progress of the program.  My freshman year we were in the middle of the pack in the conference, and by my senior year we won the conference championship.  It was a total team effort.

What You Miss Most About Hofstra: What I miss most about Hofstra is that feeling of total physical and mental exhaustion after a wrestling practice.  You look over at your teammates knowing that they feel the same way. I miss that special bond that you have with your teammates.
