Congratulations to Shannon on being one of the best women's lacrosse players in the country.A check of the facts about Hofstra show it to be ranked 442 in Forbes best college list and at a greater cost when compared to any school ranked lower.Say what you want but not a great deal for the money.When Shannon was first named as head coach some asked if it may impact the recruiting of YJ players to Hofstra.Many thought that was ridiculous, it seems to me it may have.
In the latest US News and World Reports Collegiate Rankings, Hofstra is #134.
Forbes listing is not well accepted in the industry when compared to USN&WR. That does not invalidate their rankings, however their value-for-money calculations are subject to substantial questioning within the college circuit. In other words, Forbes provides some nice marketing fodder, however USN&WR is still the benchmark against which colleges are measured.
