With at least three blocks in seven of accounted for 19 of Hofstra’s 21 made field goals. Hofstra’s last 12 games, Gidden has entered the top ten list for blocked shots in a single season in Hofstra Basketball history. Her 59 career blocked shots is seven short of entering the top ten in that category. Unlucky 13: The number 13 has certainly produced some bad luck for Hofstra this season… - During the Fordham game, the Rams used a 13-0 run midway through the second half to take the lead and ended up earning a 13-point victory, 62-49, over the Pride on November 27. - Against St. John’s on December 1, the Red Storm defeated Hofstra by 13-points, 83-70, to give Hofstra its second loss of the season. - In Hofstra’s game vs. Massachusetts on December 9, the Minutewomen also used a 13-0 run midway through the second half and rallied for a 64-57 win over the Pride.

Odd, But True: Hofstra had three players with at least 10 rebounds against Colgate on November 24 as Lizanne Murphy and Vanessa Gidden each had 14, while Lana Harshaw pulled down 11. The last time the Pride had three players with double figure rebounding totals was on January 25, 2004 when those SAME three players did it. In Hofstra’s 48-37 win over James Madison that day, Gidden had 13 rebounds, while Harshaw and Murphy each chipped in with 10.

I’m in a New York State of Mind: Hofstra’s games against Colgate, Fordham and St. John’s marked a stretch of three straight games against schools located in New York. Since 1993-94, it is only the second time that the Pride has played three straight games against New York teams. Last season, Hofstra faced Binghamton, Canisius and Columbia in succession.

We Love our Charity (Stripe): In Hofstra’s 71-60 win over Fairfield on December 29, the Pride went 30-35 (85.7%) from the charity stripe in the game. It was their highest percentage since shooting 84% (21-25) at Virginia Commonwealth on February 20, 2004. In addition, the 30 made free throws in the contest were the most for a Pride team since Hofstra sank 31 in a 97-95 double overtime win over Wagner on January 6, 1993.

No Mas: If schools located in Connecticut did a little research prior to scheduling Hofstra in the future, they might want to wait until sophomore center Vanessa Gidden (Stamford, CT) finishes her career and stops harassing her home state schools. In the Pride’s three games this season against schools located in Connecticut, Gidden averaged team-highs of 17.7 points, 9.0 rebounds and 2.7 blocks per game in nearly 30 minutes of action. She led the Pride to a perfect 3-0 mark in those games, winning by an average of 9.4 points per game against schools from the Nutmeg State.
