With Presidential Debate Looming, Clinton, Trump Have Taken Over Hofstra Lockerrooms

Hofstra men’s basketball coach Joe Mihalich was on a recruiting visit at Whitney Young High School in Chicago on Friday night when the school’s basketball coach, Tyrone Slaughter, came in to the main office to greet him.

“Don’t you have to hurry home for that debate?” Slaughter asked Mihalich.

“It’s amazing just how big this debate is and it’s amazing what it’s doing for our school,” Mihalich replied.

Slaughter, of course, was referring to Monday’s first Presidential debate between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump on Hofstra’s Long Island campus.
