Well-deserved recognition for a quality radio team. However, I wish our own sports broadcasts could take priority over the Islanders games and the community programming that WRHU carries. That CT station has a very weak signal in Nassau County.

Jojo if you remember, a while back rabinowitz cut some funding to the radio station with the idea that Hofstra sports was going to be going more for webcasts. That is the future I believe of Hofstra sports broadcasts. I agree that the CT favors the north shore of Long Island.

Don't forget that the Islanders games are a much, much better opportunity for the radio students than doing the Hofstra games. From an academic standpoint, the Islanders SHOULD be a priority.

It probably brings in more money for the university. What I would like to see is another AM station, say 1440AM I believe is WBAB. to do some of our sports such as Mens and womens basketball, both soccer games and mens and womens lax along with baseball and softabll. I am sure a deal can be done with a simulcast with these two stations.
