CONFERENCE STREAKS END: The loss to the Monarchs of ODU in the CAA Duals snapped Hofstra's 63-match (62-0-1) conference undefeated streak as well as the Pride's 60-match conference winning streak. Hofstra, which competed in the East Coast Wrestling Association (ECWA) when the streak began before joining the CAA for the 2001-02 season, had not dropped a conference contest since a 28-10 ECWA loss to Rider on February 17, 1999. Hofstra was 6-0-1 in 1999-2000, 6-0-0 in 2000-01, 2001-02, 2004-05, 2005-06 and 2007-08, 7-0-0 in 2002-03 and 8-0-0 in 2003-04. The Pride was 5-1 in the CAA in 2008-09.

But with 46 seconds remaining Deubel took the Walden, New York native down to take a 2-1 advantage and did not him escape the rest of the way for the victory. Junior Jonny Bonilla-Bowman captured third place at 157 pounds.

Shifflet directed the Pride to an 18-4-2 dual record, a final record season ranking of ninth, the program’s sixth straight Colonial Athletic Association championship and the school’s seventh consecutive conference title, an upset victory of top-ranked Minnesota in November, a sixth-place finish at the NWCA National Duals and, most importantly, a seventh-place finish at the 2007 NCAA Championships in Auburn Hills, Michigan. Along the way, the Pride developed four All-Americans, seven conference champions including the CAA Wrestler of the Year and the Rookie of the Year. For Shifflet’s efforts, he was named the Colonial Athletic Association Coach of the Year. Last season Shifflet directed the program to its 11th consecutive winning season with a 13-8 overall record and a 6-0 conference while leading Hofstra to its seventh straight CAA wrestling championship and eighth consecutive conference title. Along the way the Pride faced 13 Top 25 opponents and posted victories over #4 Iowa State, #13 Edinboro and #22 Old Dominion. Hofstra placed third at the Southern Scuffle, 10th in the Cliff Keen-Las Vegas Invitational, first in the CAA Championships with three conference champions and seven national qualifiers, and 15th in the NCAA Championships with two All-Americans and the Gorrarian Award winner. Shifflet came to Hofstra after four seasons as head wrestling coach at UNC Greensboro. While at UNCG, he created and organized the annual 35-team Southern Scuffle wrestling tournament, which is one of the largest and more competitive Division I regular season tournaments in the country. During his tenure at UNC Greensboro Shifflet recorded a 32-32 dual meet record and had nine wrestlers qualify for the NCAA Championships. A three-time All-American and a four-time national qualifier as a student-athlete at national powerhouse Edinboro University from 1992 through 1995, Shifflet began his coaching career as an assistant at Georgia State University in1995, helping the Panthers post back-to-back winning seasons, and develop three conference champions and four NCAA qualifiers. In 1997, Shifflet left Georgia State to begin a five-year tenure as an assistant coach at Cornell University in Ithaca, New York. During his time with the Big Red, Shifflet coached 24 NCAA qualifiers, three NCAA All-Americans and helped head coach Rob Koll to a pair of Ivy League championships in 1999 and 2001. More importantly, Cornell was also consistently ranked among the nation's top-15 programs. The last Big Red recruiting class, that he was involved with, placed fifth at the 2006 NCAA Championships in Oklahoma City. After five seasons at Cornell, the Amherst, New York native was named the head wrestling coach at UNC Greensboro on May 17, 2002. In 2003-04 the Spartans claimed their first winning season since 1998-99, posting a 9-6 overall record with the nine victories ranking as the third most in the program's 12-year history. Shifflet guided UNCG to the most wins in school history during the 2004-05 season as the Spartans recorded a 12-5 overall

record, 4-1 in the Southern Conference. In 2005-06 UNCG tied a school-record by sending four wrestlers to the NCAA Division I Championships in Oklahoma City and the Spartans finished tied for 31st with Harvard in the final Championship standings. The Spartans finished the season with an 11-6 dual match record and a 4-1 mark in the Southern Conference. As a wrestler, Shifflet registered 118 wins for the Edinboro Fighting Scots and was coached by the legendary Bruce Baumgartner. Competing at 142 pounds, Shifflet finished seventh at nationals as a freshman, sixth as a sophomore and third as a senior. He is one of four three-time All-Americans in school history. Shifflet also received the Eastern Wrestling League Freshman of the Year Award in 1992 and the EWL Wrestler of the Year Award in 1995. He was inducted into both the Edinboro University and the EWL Halls of Fame in 2006. In 1996 Shifflet placed seventh in the final U.S. Olympic Trials in freestyle wrestling at 149.5 pounds. One year later he placed sixth in both the World Team Freestyle Trials and the U.S. Open. HOFSTRA HELPS NYC FOODBANK: Taking a brief break from their preparations for their home match against the Wolfpack of North Carolina State on Jan. 11, the Hofstra Pride wrestling team volunteered at the Food Bank for New York City and packed 5,700 pounds of food to be distributed throughout the five boroughs of New York City. Pride Head Wrestling Coach Tom Shifflet, his staff and student-athletes volunteered on Wednesday and Thursday, January 7-8 at The Food Bank’s 90,000 square foot warehouse in Hunts Point, Bronx, to break down items, repackage food and non-food products, and stack the boxes into sizes suitable for distribution to the city's soup kitchens and food pantries. The Pride’s 5,700 pounds of food will provide approximately 4,385 meals to the needy. “While we are in the middle of our season, I think that it is important that we take stock of all the gifts that we have and help those less fortunate,” Shifflet said. “Our team was honored to be able to help the great people at the Food Bank in their mission to provide free food to the city’s hungry. Every member of our team was humbled by the experience and we look forward to returning to help in the future.” THE HOFSTRA WRESTLING BLOG: Find out the inside story of Hofstra wrestling and what the Pride wrestlers are thinking on the Takedown Blog on the Hofstra wrestling homepage at http://www.hofstra.edu/Athletics/Wrestling/index_Wrestling.cfm.

The Pride finished with 80 points in the 28-team, two-day tournament, with the Big Red of Cornell winning the team title with 139 points. Edinboro (134) was second followed by Kent State with 126 points, Virginia Tech with 107.5 points, and North Carolina with 104 points. Navy (98) was sixth and Virginia (88) was seventh. After sending two wrestlers to the finals of last year's Scuffle, Ruggirello was the Pride's lone representative in Tuesday evening's final at 133 pounds against Edinboro's Ricky Deubel. Ruggirello, who defeated Deubel, 9-3, in a dual match last season, battled with no score through two periods. In the third, he immediately escaped from the down position to take a 1-0 lead. But with 46 seconds remaining Deubel took the Walden, New York native down to take a 2-1 advantage and did not him escape the rest of the way for the victory. Ruggirello is now 12-2 on the year. Junior Jonny Bonilla-Bowman posted a 3-1 day Tuesday to capture third place at 157 pounds.

It was the Hofstra freshman's second loss in the Scuffle to Bedelyon and the third this year to the Golden Flash wrestler. But the Hofstra newcomer took fifth place on a medical forfeit by Virginia's Ross Gittomer. Bonanno is now 18-8 on the year. Senior Alton Lucas looked to be on track to defend his 2007 Scuffle title at 174 pounds but was derailed by an ankle injury in the semifinals. The West Babylon, New York native opened the day with a 3-2 decision over Old Dominion's Erick Decker in the

quarterfinals before suffering the ankle injury early in the semifinal match against Virginia's Chris Heinrich. Lucas took a medical default in that match and took medical forfeits in his two consolation matches to place sixth. Lucas is now 11-4 this season.

Gillespie (16-13) at 149 pounds. Hofstra's unranked junior Jonny Bonilla-Bowman (16-6) wore out OSU's 15th-ranked Jason Johnstone (17-7) for a 15-6 major decision at 157 pounds to give the Pride a 4-3 lead.

Jaggers at 141 pounds in the match finale.
