            Matched against some of the best competition in the metropolitan area, all levels of Prep runners held their own as 25 medals were won.  Also, our small but dedicated Soph squad captured a medal at the Soph sectionals on Wednesday.  With the “big” meets approaching, Fordham is ready to strike it big.
