Hofstra’s quarter-century-long dancing drought since the Jay Wright era has finally ended. The Pride will play in the NCAA Tournament in men’s basketball for the first time since making back-to-back appearances under Wright in 2000-01 with a 75-69 victory Tuesday night over Monmouth at CareFirst Arena in Washington to capture the automatic bid out of the Coastal Athletic Association. Hofstra (24-10) also qualified for the Big Dance in 2020 under Joe Mihalich — with current coach Craig “Speedy” Claxton serving as an assistant — but the national tournament was canceled that March due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
