Bronx, N.Y. – (May 7, 2021) - As the Atlantic 10 Conference celebrates its 45th anniversary, this season also marks a special occasion for Fordham Athletics, marking the 25th anniversary of joining the Atlantic 10.
 
Fordham has seen some outstanding student-athletes come through the Rose Hill gates over the last 25 years, and to mark that window in history, the Rams will be announcing 25th anniversary teams of each Atlantic 10 sponsored sport.  In deciding those teams, Fordham fans will vote on who the best of the best over the last 25 years is on FordhamSports.com.
 
Next up in our team vote is for track & field, which will be split up into multiple votes with the first focusing on our multi-event athletes that take on the challenge of the indoor heptathlon and outdoor decathlon!  Please make sure to vote for TWO.  The vote will last through Sunday. (NOTE: The indoor heptathlon began in 2009, while the outdoor decathlon dates to 1999)
