Hot Tanksley helps Hofstra beat Norfolk St. 88-74
Hofstra (5-2) suited just seven players and they all scored. Juan'ya Green added 18 points with eight assists and four steals, Brian Bernardi had 17 points and Dion Nesmith 10.
Tanksley, however, has been bringing the fire. He is 20-25 from 3-point range in the Pride's last four games. The spark has Hofstra off to its best seven-game start since the 2009-10 team was 6-1.
RaShid Gaston was right with Tanksley, scoring 28 points for Norfolk State (4-4) on 12 of 15 shooting. He attempted no 3s.
