On February 8th and 26th, the New York Islanders are teaming up with their neighbor, Hofstra University’s Pride lacrosse team, in a special event featuring two of America’s most exhilarating sports. Islanders writer, Andrew Burke, writes, “This special deal offers a multi-faceted opportunity for viewers, as both Hofstra Pride vs. Princeton Tigers and Islanders vs. Toronto Maple Leafs will be on display for the modest price of thirty dollars.”
This a phenomenal opportunity for lacrosse to again be placed in a much brighter light. Burke states, “Before the hockey game, Hofstra lacrosse coaches Seth Tierney and Joe Amplo will host a clinic featuring a live skills demonstration by the team players and captains, as well as motivational speeches by the coaches themselves on the game of lacrosse.”
