But the new season brings new challenges and Anspach and the Pride will be faced with many as Hofstra will face, arguably, the most difficult schedule in program history facing such notable national powers like Minnesota, Iowa, Ohio State, Oklahoma, Cornell, Wisconsin, Lehigh, the CAA Duals, and appearances in the Ken Kraft Midlands Championships in December and the National Wrestling Coaches Association (NWCA) National Duals at Cornell in February. jamie franco Anspach and staff will be armed with the biggest roster in recent years although a good many are young and inexperienced on the Division I level.

He will be backed-up by red-shirt freshman Joey Gosinski (Bartlett, IL), who was a two-time Illinois State High School Champion at Glenbard North High School. Gosinski was 5-5 in three open tournaments to get his feet wet in college wrestling last year. The 133-pound weight class is a doubly- important weight class in 2012-13 as it will also steve bonanno supply a back-up at 125 if needed. “Joey had some success last season and we think, if anything happens to Jamie (Franco), he is more than capable of stepping in and doing some pretty big things for the program,” Anspach commented.

47 NCAA APPEARANCES • 19 CONFERENCE CHAMPIONSHIPS • 27 ALL-AMERICANS 93 RAY DOWNEY FUND

he Hofstra University wrestling program is proud to honor the memory of an American hero FDNY Deputy Chief Ray Downey with the Ray Downey Memorial Scholarship. Chief TDowney, who served as Chief of Special Operations Command, lost his life heroically during the terrorist attacks at the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001.

Ray Downey was appointed to the FDNY on April 7, 1962. In August 2001, he was placed in charge of all SOC (Special Operations Command) operations - Rescue, Squad, Haz Mat and Marine - and promoted to Deputy Chief. Chief Downey’s phenomenal 39-year career with the FDNY was built upon success after success and rescue after rescue. One of the most - if not the most decorated men in the Department, Chief Downey received five individual medals for valor and 16 unit citations.

A devoted family man who lived in Deer Park, New York, with his wife, Rosalie; father of five married children, Joseph, Marie, Chuck, Ray Jr. and Kathy; and adored grandfather of nine, Chief Downey was an avid fan of the sport of wrestling and supporter of the Hofstra wrestling program, where his sons Joe and Ray Jr. were outstanding athletes. Chief Downey loved wrestling, and he always attended their matches. He continued to support the Hofstra wrestling program long after his sons graduated.

After his passing, the Downey family, longtime supporters of Hofstra University and the Pride wrestling program, created a scholarship fund to honor Chief Downey’s memory. Funds contributed are used to endow scholarships in Chief Downey’s name and will provide financial assistance to the Hofstra University wrestling program. Chief Downey’s sons, Joseph, Chuck and Ray Jr., were successful athletes at Deer Park High School, and earned bachelor’s degrees from respected universities through athletic scholarship opportunities. Recipients of these funds will demonstrate the integrity, work ethic, discipline and courage that Deputy Chief Raymond Downey exemplified throughout his life.
