The field hockey team finished their regular season on a very strong note. They defeated Robert Morris University 41 on Sunday in Moon Township, Pennsylvania.

The women’s soccer team has concluded their regular season play this weekend by facing the Sacred Heart University Pioneers and the Farleigh Dickinson University Knights. The Hawks were able to even out this weekend and bring their final record to an impressive 117 stature.

Friday, September 21 kicked off the start to this year’s men’s and women’s basketball season at MAC Madness. With two new head coaches, both teams seem to be more fired up than ever.

The football team traveled to Sacred Heart on Saturday and defeated the Pioneers 3117. Monmouth improved to 43 on the season, 31 in the Northeast Conference. The Hawks stayed perfect on the road, sporting a 40 record away from Kessler Field. Sacred Heart fell to 43 on the season, 22 in the NEC.

The University field hockey team had the chance to clinch the number one seed in the upcoming NEC Tournament, but failed to pull it off. The Hawks lost to Rider University on Thursday by a score of 32.

As the basketball season approaches, it’s hard not to focus on the lingering problem centered in professional basketball right now. The National Basketball Association, currently in a lockout because of conflicts between the league and the player’s union, has a lot of repercussions in NCAA basketball. First off, a significant amount of media attention will be jolted at the NCAA because of a lack of NBA developments. This is a dream come true for college fans looking for broader national media attention.

As the soccer season dwindles to an end, the men’s team continues to show their dominance over the conference. The Hawks hosted two opponents this weekend: the Quinnipiac Bobcats on Friday and St. Francis College on Sunday. With both games being conference games and the playoffs approaching, the team did not hesitate to start off the games in complete control.

Sometimes things are worth the wait. This statement proves to be true in the men’s soccer team match against Farleigh Dickinson on Friday.

The Hawks went on the road and picked up a win in a high scoring affair against Bryant, 4035. Monmouth improves to 33 on the season, and 21 in NEC play.

The field hockey team added two more wins to their record this past weekend, improving to a record of 124(40).
