manda Foukas is in her first season as the head men’s and women’s tennis coach at Hofstra University. Foukas, who was named to the post on September 16, replaces Mike Sowter, who departed to take the head coaching position at New Jersey Institute of Technology. “I am very excited about the opportunity to continue my coaching career at Hofstra,” commented Foukas. “I know the strides both teams have made in recent years and I am confident that Pride Tennis will continue to improve and be a force in the region.” Foukas joins the Pride staff after serving as a tennis professional at Little Silver Tennis Club in Little Silver, New Jersey, since September of 2007. “With Amanda’s experience in the New York area and at the Tracy Ferrar

The women, meanwhile, advanced to the conference semifinals twice and both programs were honored with Intercollegiate Tennis Association All-Academic accolades. While a member of the Seawolves staff, Foukas assisted in all aspects of the program including the recruitment of domestic and international student-athletes, scheduling and NCAA compliance issues. Foukas also took part in all practice and match preparations and was responsible for the coordination and execution of fundraising programs, alumni activities and community outreach initiatives. Foukas’ extensive tennis experience in the New York metropolitan area began when she served as an assistant men’s and women’s tennis coach at Wagner College in Staten Island, New York from August 2003 until June of 2005. A 2002 graduate of Rutgers University in New Brunswick, New Jersey, Foukas graduated with a bachelor of arts degree in communications, mass media and library studies and a minor in English. Foukas was a four-year member of the women’s tennis team at Rutgers and earned team Most Valuable Player honors in 2002 and was the program’s Rookie of the Year in 1999. During her career she accumulated over 100 singles and doubles victories.

Hayes’ proven expertise in enhancing academic and athletic success of studentathletes, strategic planning, fund-raising, marketing, university relations, facility enhancement, budgetary management, and NCAA compliance complements Hofstra University’s athletic department in its quest to further enhance its athletic program, and assist Hofstra’s studentathletes both on and off the field. The Hofstra Athletic program has flourished under Hayes’ leadership, winning 17 CAA Championships and making 22 postseason appearances since the 2004-05 academic year. The Pride won four CAA titles and had four NCAA Tournament teams – women’s soccer, wrestling, men’s lacrosse and softball – in 2007-08 with the soccer team advancing to the second round for the first time in program history and the wrestling team earning a 15th place finish at the NCAA Championships. Hayes has placed a significant emphasis on fund-raising during his tenure. Pride Club membership reached all-time highs, both in terms of the number of contributors and funds raised as the organization topped the $1 million mark for the first time in the 19-year history of the organization. Resources generated through fund-raising efforts have been used to enhance programs and facilities available to student-athletes. Recent initiatives include the construction of Hofstra’s new field hockey stadium, as well as the replacement of the artificial turf in Shuart Stadium. In the last three years there have also been renovations

to the study lab in Margiotta Hall and construction of a new academic study area in the Physical Fitness Center. In 2006 Hayes reintroduced the Hofstra Athletics Hall of Fame after more than a 50year absence, inducting three classes since that time. He also led an effort to retire the uniform numbers of prominent Hofstra studentathletes with 20 jersey retirement ceremonies slated for the 2008-09 year.

DIRECTOR OF ATHLETICS JACK HAYES

Active on a national level, Hayes has served on the NCAA Division I Lacrosse Committee since September 2006. Hayes came to Hofstra with more than 14 years of athletic administration experience, including management positions at four Division I institutions – the University of Connecticut, Fordham, St. John’s and Fairfield.    Hayes received a master’s degree in education in 1992 with a concentration in sport management from the University of Connecticut. He holds a bachelor’s degree (1989) from Providence College, where he was a member of Providence’s lacrosse team. He was also awarded a certificate of completion in 2001 from the Sports Management Institute, Consortium of the Universities of Michigan and Texas.   A native of Providence, Rhode Island, Hayes graduated from the Providence Country Day School where he lettered in

football, basketball and lacrosse. He was inducted, as a member of his high school basketball team, into the Providence Country Day Athletic Hall of Fame in October 2004. Hayes resides in East Northport, New York, with his wife Bridget, daughter Katie (6), and sons Matt (3) and Tommy, who was born in March 2008.

H

ofstra University is committed to the pursuit of academic and athletic excellence. The University views participation in intercollegiate athletics as benefiting the studentathlete in an educationally enhancing experience beyond any other opportunity available. Hofstra also realizes the time commitment made by student-athletes and has committed the facilities and resources to support all students.

Area four is study halls. The University Tutorial Program provides all athletic study halls with tutors in various subjects and assesses the needs of individual student‑athletes to provide the most effective study environment. The assessment tool administered by the UTP is also used to provide various enrichment seminars for the student‑athletes such as time management, writing skills, campus resources, and surviving the college transition.

The University Tutorial Program (UTP) provides free tutoring in every subject area to any Hofstra student. Students are able to obtain up to 1 1/2 hours of individual tutorial assistance per week for each subject. They are also able to utilize the various help labs on campus, which specialize in providing assistance in writing, business and QM, and biology and chemistry. In addition to this service, student-athletes are assigned an academic advisor who helps address the various needs of student‑athletes. The academic advisor emphasizes four areas in their efforts to ensure the academic success of Hofstra’s student-athletes.

In the fall of 1999 a computer lab opened on the second floor of Margiotta Hall. The state-of-the-art computer lab and learning center features a projection system and 18 computer workstations, which are connected to the University network for easy research access to the Internet. The room was refurbished in 2005 with new furniture and computers. In addition to the Margiotta Hall computer lab, a new study area was constructed in 2006, located in the Physical Fitness Center, which features numerous computer workstations and office space for University academic advisement personnel.

Area one is academic counseling. Services are provided in the areas of academic planning, career planning, personal counseling, and campus and community referrals. The counselor also meets with prospective student‑athletes, at the coach’s request, to share the many benefits of a Hofstra University education. Area two is academic advising. In an effort to ease the demand on the Office of Advisement, the academic advisor also advises first‑year and undecided student‑athletes. Area three is academic monitoring. The UTP counselor monitors the academic progress of student‑athletes to ensure compliance with Hofstra University, NCAA and conference regulations. The counselor’s regular communication with the faculty and coaches provide an opportunity for early intervention should academic difficulties arise.

University of Maryland, University of Maryland-Baltimore County and Coppin State University athletic departments. He was also on the medical staff of the National Football League’s Baltimore Ravens. Hofstra University sponsors a fully accredited, highly competitive undergraduate degree program for athletic training majors, in which Hofstra student athletic trainers participate in all aspects of the health care system.

A coordinated effort between the University Health and Wellness Center, the Athletic Department and outside health care providers ensures every student-athlete the best medical attention possible. University student-athletes have direct access to a myriad of health care services. Managing the coverage of every practice and competition event is Hofstra University’s athletic training staff, which is led by sixth-year Head Athletic Trainer Evan Malings and features eight fulltime athletic trainers and numerous student athletic trainers. The athletic trainers provide injury management, rehabilitation and treatment to the entire Athletic program. Utilizing three state-of-the-art athletic training rooms, these professionals work tirelessly to ensure the safe participation of Hofstra’s student-athletes and to return injured athletes to play quickly and safely.

2008-09 Tennis Media Guide | Hofstra Heritage 18

The Symbols of Hofstra University The Shield Logo

In 2005 Hofstra introduced a new logo as part of a University-wide re-imaging. Both the University’s logo as well as the Pride logo were designed by advertising agency Powell New York, a full-service branding and marketing agency, noted as one of the ten firms to watch in 2005 in Advertising Age.

The new University logo features an “H” within a shield design. Hofstra University has always been known for both a tradition of academic excellence and a willingness to evolve to meet the needs of students and the greater society. This shield represents the University’s commitment to our heritage and a tradition of academic excellence, while the dynamic representation of the H within the shield embodies the evolutionary, changing nature of the University. Hofstra University has both honored its traditions and heritage while embracing changing disciplines, using new technology and remaining relevant to scholarly pursuits and the demands of industry.

The Seal

The Hofstra seal was designed from the royal Dutch emblem by art instructor Constant Van de Wall. The seal is modeled on the coat of arms of the House of OrangeNassau. The round seal includes the coat of arms, flanked by lions on either side. A lion also stands in the center of the coat of arms, holding a sword in its right claw and a bundle of seven arrows, which represent the seven provinces of Holland, in its left. The seal also carries the motto of the House of Orange-Nassau in Old French: “Je maintiendray” (I stand steadfast). In 1988 one of the two lions on the seal was officially replaced with a lioness. The Hofstra seal is still in use today, though not as a logo. The seal will be affixed to formal documents, and used for official purposes such as commencement, convocations, and official University functions.

HOFSTRA UNIVERSITY

The Pride

Hofstra’s athletic teams are officially known as the Pride, providing our teams with a strong, consistent image that resonates with the Hofstra community. The new Hofstra Athletics logo consists of a graphic mark of a male and female lion in powerful, synchronized motion with the word mark of the Hofstra Pride or the specific sports team. This logo will be the only one used by Hofstra Athletics. The Hofstra Pride refers to a pack of lions, male and female, which work together towards a common goal and symbolize determination and strength. The Pride conveys both the teamwork and togetherness that is a trait of lions living in prides, who have a close bond and work together for the good of the entire group. The teamwork evident in prides is a trait of Hofstra’s studentathletes, who support each other in furtherance of a common goal, while working tirelessly to represent their teams and, in turn, the University. Lions also possess speed, tenacity, and agility, and are relentless in their pursuit of a goal, which are traits our studentathletes demonstrate both on and off the field. The first consistent use of the word “Pride” relating to athletics was in 1989 when the University’s athletic booster club was founded and called itself The Pride Club, which at the time simply referred to the pride that alumni and fans had for our teams. The Pride identity has progressed over the past decade in a more specific fashion than just the expression of a feeling. After one lion on the Hofstra seal was changed into a lioness to symbolize gender equity, the University mascots -- Kate and Willie Pride, a lioness and lion – were introduced. 

Hofstra’s Dutch Heritage

The idea for a college came from Truesdel Peck Calkins, former Hempstead superintendent of schools, who was then with New York University. He suggested that NYU might offer extension courses on the Hofstra property. Hofstra opened in September 1935, as a twoyear extension branch of NYU; its official name was “Nassau College – Hofstra Memorial of New York University at Hempstead, Long Island.” When the doors opened, the sole building on campus was Hofstra’s mansion, which he had affectionately named the Netherlands after his homeland, and all classes were held there. The mansion, which houses administrative offices, is now the center of Hofstra’s 240-acre campus, and has been renamed Hofstra Hall.

HOFSTRA UNIVERSITY

2008-09 Tennis Media Guide | Hofstra Heritage

Ties to Dutch heritage and the Netherlands began with William S. Hofstra, after whom the school is named and on whose property the University was started. William Hofstra died in 1932 and when his wife, Kate, died 16 months later, her will provided that their house, 15acre estate, and bulk of her inheritance were to be used for a “public, charitable, benevolent, or scientific purpose” as a memorial to her husband.

Sjoholm placed 13th overall at the NCAA Men’s Golf Championship.

ith more than two decades of success athletically and academically, the Colonial Athletic Association has established a reputation as one of the nation’s top collegiate conferences.

The landscape of the conference stretches along the majority of the East Coast, and includes six of the nation’s top 25 media markets – New York (1), Philadelphia (4), Boston (7), Washington, D.C. (8), Atlanta (9) and Baltimore (24). The number of television homes in the CAA market exceeds 19.7 million. The CAA currently sponsors 22 sports with the addition of a 12-team football league in 2007. Male athletes compete for championships in baseball, basketball, cross country, football, golf, lacrosse, soccer, swimming & diving, tennis, track & field and wrestling. Female athletes battle for conference titles in basketball, cross country, field hockey, golf, lacrosse, soccer, softball, swimming & diving, tennis, track & field and volleyball. In 2007-08, 26 teams earned NCAA Tournament berths and 46 studentathletes received All-America honors. The conference has made its presence known nationally in men’s basketball with at least three teams advancing to post-season play for the past five years. Last season, conference champion George Mason earned its third NCAA Tournament trip since 2001, VCU received its fourth post-season berth in five seasons with a spot in the NIT and Old Dominion reached the quarterfinals of the inaugural CBI for its fourth consecutive

postseason appearance. In 2006, George Mason became the first mid-major program since 1979 to reach the Final Four, knocking off powerhouses Michigan State, North Carolina, Wichita State and Connecticut along the way. The Patriots were ranked No. 8 in the final ESPN/USA Today Top 25 poll, which was the highest ever for a CAA team. The CAA has also had at least three women’s basketball teams participate in post-season play for the past three years. Perennial power Old Dominion, which has won three national championships (1979, 1980, 1985) and was national runner-up in 1997, captured its 17th consecutive CAA title last season and reached the Sweet 16 of the NCAA Tournament for the first time since 2002. James Madison made its third consecutive post-season appearance and advanced to the third round of the WNIT, while VCU advanced to the second round of the WNIT in just its second post-season trip in school history. The conference also excels in many other sports. CAA squads have combined to win 10 field hockey national titles since the championship began in 1981. Delaware and Towson have each reached the Final Four of the NCAA Men’s Lacrosse Championship. For the first time, three women’s soccer teams reached the second round of the NCAA Tournament in 2007 and at least one men’s soccer team has advanced to the final 16 of the NCAA Championship in five of the last six years. Hofstra finished 15th overall at the NCAA Wrestling Championship and William & Mary placed 15th nationally in men’s cross country. In baseball, the CAA had 23 players chosen in the 2008 Major League draft, which was the second-highest total in league history. Hofstra won its NCAA-record 11th-straight conference title in softball and reached the NCAA regional finals. Individually, the W&M women’s tennis duo of Megan Moulton-Levy and Katarina Zoricic reached the quarterfinals of the NCAA Doubles Championship in 2008 to earn All-America status for the second straight season, and Georgia State golfer Joel

In 2002, two faculty members from CAA institutions were awarded academia’s most coveted distinction – the Nobel Prize. John B. Fenn, a research professor in the Department of Chemistry at Virginia Commonwealth University, received the Nobel Prize for chemistry, and Vernon Smith, a professor of economics and law at George Mason University, shared the Nobel Prize in economic sciences. Commissioner Thomas E. Yeager has guided the CAA since its inception. The conference traces its roots back to 1983 when three of its current members- George Mason University, James Madison University, and the College of William and Mary - were aligned with East Carolina University, the United States Naval Academy and the University of Richmond as a basketball league (ECAC South). During the next two years, the league added 11 sports, acquired two new members (the University of North Carolina at Wilmington and American University) and decided to form a new association. The transformation from ECAC South to CAA took place on June 6, 1985. Charter members George Mason, James Madison, UNC Wilmington and William and Mary were joined by Old Dominion University in 1991 and by Virginia Commonwealth University in 1995. The conference added the University of Delaware, Drexel University, Hofstra University and Towson University in 2001. Georgia State University and Northeastern University became members of the conference on July 1, 2005.

2008-09 Tennis Media Guide | The Colonial Athletic Association

The CAA encompasses five of the nation’s nine largest metropolitan areas with a geographic footprint that stretches from Boston to Atlanta. The conference has produced 16 national team champions in five different sports, 33 individual national champions, 12 national players of the year, 11 national coaches of the year and 12 Honda Award winners. Even more impressive, however, are the honors accumulated away from competition, which include five Rhodes Scholars and 20 NCAA post-graduate scholars. In 2007-08, the CAA had five ESPN the Magazine Academic All-Americans and more than 1,700 of our 4,000 student-athletes received the Commissioner’s Academic Award after posting at least a 3.2 grade point average while lettering in a varsity sport.

CAA member institutions are committed to excellence in the classroom. The Colonial Academic Alliance was created in 2002 by the league’s presidents with a goal of expanding their partnership to all aspects of university life outside of intercollegiate athletics. Among the programs already established are an undergraduate research conference, coordination of study abroad programs and granting visiting academic status to studentathletes traveling to an away contest so that they have access to libraries, academic resource centers and computer labs.

From all-star athletes to Nobel Prize winning faculty, the CAA takes great pride in producing performers who stand out both on the playing field and in the classroom.
