And proud of it. "I think the word Pride is a big part of our program," Dutchmen, er, Pride men's basketball coach Jay Wright said. "Pride means a pack of lions. I never knew that until I got here. We never really used Flying Dutchmen on our gear. We always used the word Hofstra. We weren't pushing Flying Dutchmen basketball." |
