Cross Country Newsletter `91 November 9, 1991
Not much more need be said. On Saturday, November 9, Fordham took a little hope and a lot of hear into the 1991 CHSAA City Championships and walked away with an astounding 5th place finish qualifying the team for the New York State Federation Meet at Bowdoin Park on November 16th. A truly outstanding feat given the tough field of 35 schools. Also 16 medals were won, making the season total 213 – a Fordham XC Record.

XC Notes
- A special MIP salute goes out to the Varsity A Team, five of whom posted PRs that made this weekend’s achievement possible. Again, congratulations. Honorable mention goes to Sophs John Verlezza and Pete Canale whose hard work made them the team’s 5th and 6th Sophs top break 16 minutes.
