The graduation of 2011 All-American and four-time CAA champion Lou Ruggirello leaves a big void in the Pride lineup at 133 pounds. Anspach and staff will have 17 returnees, including seven starters, But the cupboard is far from empty as Franco is ready to step in at 133 coming back from last year’s squad. Leading the way is senior All- after two seasons at 125 pounds. Franco, a three-time New York State American P.J. Gillespie, who placed eighth at 165 pounds. Hofstra has Championship finalist and 2008 state champion, is starting his third six NCAA qualifiers on its roster, which displays a solid foundation of year with the Pride and stepped in for the redshirted Steve Bonanno in experience in 2011-12. “We lost two student-athletes, in Lou Ruggirello 2009-10.

Whoever we put out there at 133 pounds is going to be solid for us.” Even with experience, Anspach had an important message to get through to all his wrestlers during the off-season. “The biggest thing that we 141 stressed to the entire team this summer was confidence. We know that Senior Vince Varela (Rio Rancho, NM) moves up a weight class to 149 they are a talented group. But they have to believe in themselves and this season leaving an open battle for the starting job at 141 pounds. their abilities and continue to work hard towards their goals.” Redshirt sophomore Luke Vaith (Hastings, MN), who posted a 15-8 during a redshirt season last year, is the front-runner to return to a job 125 that he had as a freshman. Vaith posted a 13-13 mark at 141 pounds in While the 125-pound weight class is not the deepest, it does have 2009-10 before finishing the season at 133 pounds (3-5) and placing experience with the return of two-year starter and two-time NCAA second in the CAA Championships. Vaith enters the season as the top- qualifier Steve Bonanno (Wantagh, NY). The two-time CAA finalist ranked 141-pounder in the CAA in the preseason poll. Challenging Vaith at 125 pounds in 2009 and 2011 enters the 2011-12 season at the are junior Daniel Manley (Dobbs Ferry, NY) and redshirt freshman Cody Ruggirello (Walden, NY). Manley wrestled in 11 matches last season, posting a 5-6 mark at 149 pounds and a 2-2 slate at 141 pounds. Ruggirello posted a 4-2 mark at the East Stroudsburg Open last November before suffering an injury and being shut down for the season. Steve Bonnano “We feel that Luke has a ton of potential to make a splash on the national scene,” Anspach says. “This is his third year in the program including a season where he was a starter and CAA finalist. This is his time and opportunity to shine.”

149 Varela moves up a weight class to 149 for his final season at Hofstra in 2011-12. Varela made his first trip to the NCAA Championships last season by placing second in the CAA Championships and earning an at-large bid based on his 21-15 slate. The former Arizona State transfer, who is starting his second season with the Pride placed sixth at the Cliff Keen-Las Vegas Invitational last December. Backing up Varela is junior Matt Spataro (Garfield, NJ). The Western New England College transfer, who is starting his second season at Hofstra, posted a 7-16 record last season while filling in at 149, 157 and 174 pounds. Ruggirello could also

Challenging Banks will be fifth-year junior Justin Accordino (Wilkes-Barre, PA), who was shut down at the end of December with a knee injury for the second consecutive season. Accordino, who was wrestling well after bouncing back from a season-ending knee injury in the second week of 2009-10, went down with a knee injury at the Southern Scuffle last December. Like Banks, Accordino, a 2009 NCAA qualifier, has the ability to be a conference champion and NCAA qualifier. Also looking to bust into a starting role are redshirt freshman Nick Terdick (East Northport, NY), who posted a 13-11 mark in open tournaments and placed third in at the New York State Collegiate Championships Freshman division last season, and freshman George Palyok (Chesterfield, NJ), a two-time district finalist who was 32-5 as a Vince Varela senior at Northern Burlington County Regional. “The 157-pound weight class is going to be interesting this season,” Anspach commented. “Justin has worked hard during the past 10 months to rehab and get prepared to move up to 157 pounds. He enjoys lifting weights so we don’t see a strength issue and he looks great during the preseason. Tyler has won some good matches for us in the past and when he is wrestling well he is difficult to beat. He needs to do that more consistently.”

165 2011 All-American and three-time NCAA qualifier P.J.

The two-time Fargo All-American had a rough by a newcomer this year. Freshman Jermaine John (Brooklyn, NY), an go of it during his first two months of his college career, posting a All-New York State selection and three-time All-Nassau County pick, 4-16 record. But his second half development was much better as he is the front-runner for the starting job over freshman Joe Kavanagh posted an 11-7 mark on the way to a fourth place finish at the CAA (Wantagh, NY). John, who posted a 125-18 record at Bethpage High Championships. “Matt is coming off an interesting season,” Anspach School on Long Island, was 45-3 as a senior and placed fifth at the New said. “He struggled early with the physicality of the weight class.

Murphy important newcomers on the team,” Anspach said. “He was expected to wrestled in 13 matches last year and is expected to make a strong be a back-up at 165 but is looking at a starting role at 174 pounds. He is challenge for the starting job. dedicated, works hard and has the ability to be a success. We think this weight class will provide a great battle for the starting job in the near 285 future.” Redshirt junior Paul Snyder (Greensburg, PA) is coming off the best season of his young career and is expected to return to the starting role at 285 pounds. The 2011 CAA champion and NCAA qualifier had a shaky first half of the season, going 11-10, but gained confidence and was 14-6 during the second half of the year. That confidence and added year of development has placed Snyder as the top seed at 285 in the CAA preseason poll. Expected to challenge Snyder once again this season is redshirt freshman Zeal McGrew (Glenville, NY). McGrew, who Ben Clymer benefitted from a year of development last season, posted a 20-9 record in Open tournaments as a true freshman. “I think the biggest thing that Paul developed as the season went along was confidence,” Anspach said. “As his confidence improved so did his number of wins leading up to the CAA title and into his first NCAA Championship. Zeal (McGrew) is a smaller heavyweight but he is athletic and takes a lot of shots.”

184 The 184-pound weight class returns three-year starter and NCAA qualifier Ben Clymer (Germansville, PA). Clymer had a consistently strong season culminating in his first CAA championship. He posted a 22-10 record and ranked in the top 25 in the final RPI last season. While he made his debut at the NCAA Championship in 2011, Clymer, the CAA’s top-ranked wrestler in their preseason poll, will be looking to reach the All-American podium in March. Junior Pat Murphy (Nazareth, PA) will be backing up Clymer again in 2011-12. Murphy wrestled Paul Snyder in nine matches last season and is the ultimate team wrestler and is ready when needed. “Ben’s CAA championship and NCAA appearance affirmed all the hours that he has spent on the mat and in the weight room over the years,” Anspach said. “We need him to be more offensive and score more. Nationally, we think he is very close and, with a couple of adjustments, we think he can place in the top eight at nationals. Pat is a great team wrestler. He wrestles hard every day and he more than willing to fill in at any weight that we need him.”

46 NCAA Appearances, 18 Conference Championships, 25 All-Americans 91 The Ray Downey, Sr. Memorial Scholarship and Wrestling Fund

he Hofstra University wrestling Tprogram is proud to honor the memory of an American hero FDNY Deputy Chief Ray Downey with the Ray Downey Memorial Scholarship. Chief Downey, 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. The 2011 recipient of the Ray Downey Scholarship Award was senior Jeff Rotella from West Windsor, New Jersey.

The Ray Downey Sr. Memorial Scholarship Fund Day, which is scheduled for Wednesday, January 28 against Army, is a unique opportunity to honor Chief Downey’s memory as well as to support student-athletes.
