Mcelderry Honored at Gala
Former Fordham Men’s Soccer head coach Jim McElderry was honored, along many other local soccer names, at this year’s New York City Soccer Gala on Wednesday. The seventh member of the Fordham program to receive the honor at the Gala’s annual event, McElderry spent 16 years on Fordham’s campus coaching the men’s team, bringing them success in the Atlantic 10 Conference and attention on a national stage. With his 127 registered victories for the Rams at the helm of the squad, including a regular season championship, two Atlantic 10 titles and three trips to the NCAA Championship McElderry is one of the program’s most successful coaches.

Football Starts Spring Practice
For the third season under head coach Joe Conlin, Fordham Football had the first practice of its spring practice season on Wednesday. Held on Murphy Field, the practice is what begins the yearly cycle that encompasses the football season, which will not officially begin until the fall. The Rams, who took part in their first of a handful of spring practices before their annual Spring Game on Saturday, April 4, are returning 10 players on either side of the ball, including quarterback Tim DeMorat and running back Zach Davis on offense, linemen Ryan Greenhagen and Glenn Cunningham on defense and kicker Andrew Mevis on special teams.
