Good stuff Joe. I never realized all the work and effort you put into it. Sounds like you are building quite a solid program. One last question.. How has the university been in its support for all your dedication and tireless effort to get the program back on the map? -- Fordham Rams Basketball Message Board

In reply to: Joe S. ' 58 's message, "We follow the progress of over 250 high school Sailing teams plus the 15 - 17 year old kids, who do well at the hundreds of junior regattas throughout the country, mostly during the summer. I race Sunfish on the national circuit and post recruitment messages on their board, plus our 138 member Afterguard membership constantly provides leads, and I follow up with every one of them. This year, our Potential Recruits e-mail list has about 30 prospects. Experienced female crews are more plentiful than experienced female skippers, which is why the number of schools in our conference with women's teams is half that of the number with coed teams." on Tue April 12, 2005 10:29:09

Replies:

Frank McLaughlin, Charlie Elwood & Mike Roberts, Coordinator of Club Sports (my boss), have all been very supportive, as has Fr. McShane, who has gone out of his way to greet key recruits. No program ever has enough money but the University has provided Sailing with sufficient financial resources, which when supplemented by the team's fundraising efforts and that of the Afterguard, the alumni support group, has been certainly adequate for our up-and-coming program.
