Pregame Scouting: Hofstra Pride

Today’s matchup with Hofstra will be the first time that the University of Kentucky has faced the Pride. Head coach Joe Mihalich is in his fourth season at Hofstra, where he has done a remarkable job. Mihalich took over after a 7-win 2012-13 season, and has now had 20+ wins in back to back seasons. That’s actually a strikingly good job at any school, but especially impressive at a school like Hofstra that won’t be bringing in top 25 recruiting classes every year.

The Pride are poised to be good for a few years too, as they only have 2 seniors on this season’s roster and their leading scorer is a true freshman.
