Even though the COVID-19 outbreak canceled the 2020 Block F Awards Dinner it will not stop us  from recognizing the outstanding student-athletes from 2019-2020. Instead of gathering in the historic Rose Hill Gym each winner will be honored online, from team MVPs to all the special award winners. We know that it's not the same but we want all the student-athletes to know that we thank you for your hard work and dedication and we are thinking of you and your families.
Â
Bronx, N.Y. – We conclude the 2020 Block F Special Awards today as we present the 2020 Vincent T. Lombardi Award to the Fordham Male Athlete of the Year to senior
Jake Miller-Tolt from the water polo team.

The Vincent T. Lombardi Award is presented to the Male Athlete of the Year for distinguished athletic achievements in the winning tradition of Vince Lombardi. The award honors the memory of one of Fordham's famed Seven Blocks of Granite, who is considered to be one of football's greatest coaches.Â

Miller-Tolt earned his second straight ACWPC Division I men's varsity All-America honor last fall after setting the school record for goals in a season with a career-high 114, cracking the 100-goal mark for the second time in his career. He graduates as the Fordham modern day career leader in goals, assists, points, and steals.
