6 HOFSTRA UNIVERSITY HOFSTRA HERITAGE

he history of athletics at Hofstra is as old as the The Hofstra Flag University itself, and is steeped in the Dutch heritage that The Hofstra storm flag is modeled after an actual Dutch geus, a T helps to make Hofstra such a unique school. privateer’s flag. In 1991 a representative of Holland’s Queen T Beatrix presented the banner to then Hofstra President (now Hofstra has always had strong roots in tradition. Ties to Dutch President Emeritus) James M. Shuart. The history of the flag heritage and the Netherlands began with William S. Hofstra, after dates back to 1572, when a group of Dutch loyalists called whom the school is named and on whose property the University Watergeuzen used the flag’s mast to ram the gates of a Dutch was started. When the doors opened in 1935, the sole building city in their opposition to Spanish rule. While the Netherlands on campus was Hofstra’s mansion, which he had affectionately Royal Navy flies the original red, white and blue geus, the Hofstra named the Netherlands after his homeland. The mansion, which version has been redesigned in the school colors of gold, white houses administrative offices, is now the center of Hofstra’s 240- and blue. acre campus, and has been renamed Hofstra Hall. The gold, white and blue Hofstra colors themselves spring from Also adopted in this early stage of Hofstra’s history was the Dutch roots. The first official Hofstra flag appeared on April 19, school alma mater, “The Netherlands.” The lyrics were written by 1940, when Dr. Alexander Loudon, an envoy for Queen a faculty member to the music of the Dutch national anthem by Wilhelmina of the Netherlands, presented his country’s flag to the 16th-century Dutch composer Valerius. Hofstra in a special ceremony. However, the flag he presented was not the red, white and blue flag of the Netherlands, but the orange, white and blue banner of William of Nassau with a Hofstra emblem placed on the flag. The University has used the design ever since, although President Shuart, after researching the colors, replaced the orange hue with gold, making the flag truer to the original House of Nassau. The flag is one of Hofstra’s most recognizable symbols, utilized in publications, pins and souvenirs.

The Hofstra Seal The Hofstra seal, another easily recognizable emblem, 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 Orange-Nassau. 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 seal is now the focal point of the “Hofstra Pride” logo.

2004 BASEBALL 7 HOFSTRA HERITAGE

The Hofstra Nicknames The Hofstra nickname has also evolved over the years. For decades, Hofstra athletic teams have used the nicknames Flying Dutchmen, Dutchmen, or Dutch. Recently, an additional nickname of The Pride has become popular. We have not changed our nickname. We are both the Dutch (and its variations) and the Pride.

The Pride nickname started during the University’s dramatic recovery and growth in the mid to late ‘80’s from a major fiscal crisis during the previous decade. The first consistent use of the word “Pride” relating to athletics started in 1989 when the University’s athletic booster club was founded and called itself The Pride Club. At that time it had no meaning associated with our teams. It was simply consistent with a general feeling about all of our efforts.

The Pride nickname has also evolved over the past decade in a more specific fashion than just the expression of the feeling. The word pride is used to describe a sense of having strong self- respect or a sense of accomplishment. But in 1988 the lion on the right side of the shield on the Hofstra seal was changed into a lioness to symbolize gender equity. This, in turn, led to the development of the University mascots — Kate and Willie Pride, a lion and lioness. The two lions led to extensive use of the word “Pride” in talking about Hofstra, as a group of lions is called a Venus agreed, and gave him three golden apples, which pride.

2004 BASEBALL 31 ATHLETIC FACILITIES UNIVERSITY FIELD

he Pride play and practice on University Field, located on T Hofstra’s North Campus. University FieldT is centrally located between two of the most frequented sites on campus, the Hofstra Recreation Center and the Hofstra University Arena. It is also just 25 yards from the Colonial Square residential complex.

University Field has undergone major renovations in recent years. The infield was skinned and a new drainage system was put in. This was followed by the installation of “Competition Turf” by Edel Grass. The artificial grass surface, which is similar to what is used at Veterans Stadium in , Pennsylvania, was installed by Landtek of Amityville, New York. The new surface gives the Pride greater flexibility in playing during inclement weather and will also allow for greater use during the summer months. Other renovations included leveling the berm that was located behind the backstop, moving the backstop back 10 feet and installing new bleachers behind home plate. New fences were also installed along the right field and left field lines. In 2002-2003, the existing dugouts were replaced with sunken dugouts with protective fencing.

The recent renovations weren’t the first done to University Field. In 1990 extensive outfield repair was done, including the installation of a wooden fence. In 1991 dugouts were constructed, new fencing was installed in foul territory and the areas were also enclosed with fencing.

University Field has dimensions of 331 feet down the left field line, 380 to center field and 340 down the right field line. There is ample parking adjacent to the field.

32 HOFSTRA UNIVERSITY THE GAMBARDELLA GATEWAY TO HOFSTRA BASEBALL

The entrance to University Field, located just south of the backstop seating, is named in memory of Gennaro “Jerry” Gambardella, a second-year Pride baseball player from West Haven, Connecticut, who died suddenly on November 14, 2001. The Gambardella Gateway to Hofstra Baseball, which also features a bronze plaque in Gambardella’s memory, was officially dedicated on October 27, 2002. Hofstra Director of Athletics Harry Royle proclaimed, “Players for decades to come will use the Gambardella Gateway to Hofstra Baseball and know who Jerry was.”

HOFSTRA PHYSICAL FITNESS CENTER/ NEW YORK JETS PRACTICE BUBBLE

Hofstra can avoid inclement weather by using the indoor Physical Fitness Center, which is equipped with pitching machines and batting cages. The Pride also have use of the New York Jets indoor practice bubble. The 50-yard turf field gives Hofstra a unique practice environment that protects the team from inclement weather. The practice bubble is located on the North Campus, near Hofstra Arena.

HOFSTRA ARENA WEIGHT ROOM

The team also has the use of a state-of-the-art weight training facility. Located in the Hofstra Arena, the weight room is outfitted with the most advanced strength training and cardiovascular equipment available.
