Meet Mike McNamara

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Fordham chapter.

You don’t have to be a fan of Fordham Men’s Soccer to be a fan of this week’s campus celeb, Mike McNamara (pictured above, center).  A Fordham prep alum, Mike has Fordham roots deeper than most rams. When he’s not on the field, you might find Mike at his favorite place off campus, 7/11. I think we can all relate. Read on for more on Mike, and catch him and the rest of the men’s soccer team playing this Sunday vs. Rhode Island at 1:00 PM.
