New York, NY (February 15)- The FDU-Florham Men's Track & Field team ran the track of The Amory for the fourth time this season, only this time as a part of the NYU DIII Invitational. The Devils only took away one school record but found two Devils crushing the time set in the 3000m.
The first Devil in the starting blocks was
Lucas Sorrentino (Staten Island, NY) ran in the 60m (Unseeded) and was able to secure a top 15 finish with a time of 7.88 (11

Sorrentino was also seen in the 200m where he placed 46
th with a time of 24.81. Teammates
Shane Breedlove (Richmond, Va.) and
Jason Nonnenmacher ( Staten Island, NY) were also in the same event and fished in the 55
th (25.90) and 63
rd (27.76), which was Nonnenmacher's personal record.
The 400m was the next event to host any Devils and it held four with
Nathaniel Perrelli (Fanwood, NJ) finishing first of his team, but 34
th overall (54.69).
Luke Passarelli (Brick, NJ) was the next Devil to cross the line as he came in 40
th ( 56.84), Breedlove taking 43
rd overall (57.54), and
Francisco Tanez ( West Orange, NJ) rounding out the event with an overall finish of 47

The 800m only held one Devil athlete, in which
Norbert Martinez (Roxbury, NJ) took 49

Going the distance for the meet was
Emmanuel Torode (Roxbury, NJ) and
Evan McGinnity who paced off each other in the 3000m, to have final results of 33
rd (9:56.79) and 34
