2025 Men’s Water Polo NCAA Tournament Pregame Tailgate

It’s a great time to be a Ram! Alumni, friends, and family are invited to join the Office of Alumni Relations, the Maroon Club, and the Alumni Chapter of Northern California for a tailgate prior to the first-round Friday afternoon match. Our group will be in the Varsity Parking Lot, near the main entrance. Look for the Fordham banner and folks in Fordham gear! Sandwiches will be provided.

Please email Mark Di Giorgio, GABELLI ’87, ’93 at [email protected] to RSVP. Contact Mark with any questions at 415-876-2735.

Following the gathering, the match begins at 2 p.m against San Jose State.
