About Fordham
Fordham
University, New York City’s Jesuit University,
invites you to discover new worlds. We offer a distinctive combination
of benefits: the approach to education-challenging you to excel while
offering the personal attention you need to do so– set within the
dynamic landscape of New York City, the cultural and commercial capital
of the world.
The Fordham Rose Hill Campus enrolls approximately 7,000 undergraduate students. The low student/faculty ratio, 12:1, and small average class size, 22, ensure each student individualized attention.
A Fordham education extends well beyond the classroom into an exciting and bustling city. Our highly successful internship program, with more than 2600 of New York City's most prestigious employers, provides solid professional experience and valuable contacts. Each year, more than 600 distinguished companies visit Fordham to recruit potential employees.
The University also offers an extensive athletics program consisting of 22 NCAA Division 1 men's and women's varsity teams and numerous club and intramural sports.
Men's Soccer
For the first time in Fordham University Men's Soccer history, the Rams made back-to-back-to-back appearances at the Atlantic 10 Championship with their third-place finish in the conference last fall. Unfortunately, just as they did in their previous year, Fordham fell in the opening round of the tournament.
Though the Rams could not push through with their first Atlantic 10 Championship win since 1996, eight-year head coach Jim McElderry has no need to fret when looking to the 2010 season as he returns the core of his offense and the best goalkeeper in the Atlantic 10.
The National Soccer Coaches Association of America (NSCAA) announced their 2009 All-Region Teams with three Fordham Rams earning accolades. Sophomore goalkeeper Ryan Meara (Yonkers, N.Y./Fordham Prep) was named First Team All-Mid-Atlantic Region, while sophomore midfielder Tim Richardson (North Palmerston, New Zealand/North Palmerston) and senior defender Mike McTigue (Tuckahoe, N.Y./Fordham Prep) were named Second and Third Team All-Mid-Atlantic Region, respectively.
Sophomore Tim Richardson was nominated this year for Soccer News Net's Men's Soccer Player of the Year Award. This was after he was named the 2009 Atlantic 10 Midfielder of the Year and First Team All-Atlantic 10 . He became just the second men's soccer player to earn a major Atlantic 10 award, following in the footsteps of Fordham alum John Wolyniec (NY Redbulls). Richardson led the Rams in scoring with six goals and two assists for 14 points.
