University of Notre Dame

When Father Edward F. Sorin started his school in the northern Indiana wilderness, he had only $300, three log buildings badly in need of repair and a far-sighted vision of establishing a liberal arts school to meet the growing

educational needs of the frontier. He dreamed of building a great uni-versity, and in 1842, he founded the University of Notre Dame du Lac.

Over the years, the University of Notre Dame du Lac would evolve into a preeminent place for Catholic thought. While becoming one of the top undergraduate institutions in the country, Notre Dame has also been at the cutting edge of research, including such innovations as the transmission of wireless messages and the development of synthetic rubber. Today researchers are achieving breakthroughs in astrophysics, radiation chemistry, environmental sciences, tropical disease transmission, cancer, robotics, and nanoelectronics.

The University has also stressed residential life, with four-of-five students living on campus in the school’s 29 residence halls that serve as the focal point of social, spiritual and athletic activities. Notre Dame is one of a handful of universities with a truly interna-tional student body, coming from over 100 nations and all 50 states. Students come to Notre Dame not only to learn how to think, but to learn how to live, keeping faith with the vision of Fr. Sorin.

Notre Dame is one of the few universities to regularly rank in the top 25 in the U.S. News & World Report survey of America’s best colleges and the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics Directors’ Cup standings of the best overall athletics

programs. The University ranks first among all Catholic universities worldwide, according to the 2011 Times Higher Education survey and the Mendoza College of Business at Notre Dame boasts the No. 1 undergraduate business program in the nation according to BusinessWeek magazine.


University Leadership

Rev. John I. Jenkins, C.S.C., is in his second five-year term as the 17th president of the University of Notre Dame. His vision is for Notre Dame to be the Catholic research university for our time –

an institution that unifies, enlightens and heals by engaging in scholarship of the first rank while maintaining its distinctive Catholic character and long-time excel-lence in undergraduate education.

During his tenure, Notre Dame has made significant progress toward its research goal, including selection as the lead partner in the Midwest Institute for Nanoelectronics Discovery, the creation of the Innovation Park research facility, and the construction of Stinson Remick Hall of Engineering.

His commitment to undergraduate education has been marked by the Notre Dame Forums, yearlong initia-tives that have examined important issues such as religion and world conflict, global health, immigration and energy.

The University’s Catholic identity has been strengthened during Father Jenkins’ tenure in multiple ways, including the appointment of a coordinator for University life initiatives and the construction of

John B. “Jack” Swarbrick Jr., a University of Notre Dame graduate who rose to national prominence as a lawyer, consultant and exec-utive in the collegiate and Olympic sports industries, is in his fourth year as vice president and director of athletics at his alma mater.

Among Swarbrick’s athletics initiatives are meeting the perfor-mance needs of Notre Dame student-athletes through establishment of a new sports performance division, reaching out to more former Irish student-athletes via the Notre Dame Monogram Club and other programs, utilizing emerging digital technologies to deliver bet-ter information on and access to Notre Dame athletic programs via expanded production and distribu-tion of programming, and restruc-turing Notre Dame’s approach to sport administration through assignment of a unique adminis-trator to each of the 26 Irish sports.

Notre Dame ranked num-ber one in the country (among Football Bowl Subdivision schools) in the three most recent Graduation Success Rate (GSR) surveys – in 2010 and 2009 with 99 scores (including in ‘09 a 97 score and ’10 a 96 in football that both also ranked number one). The 2009 Academic Progress Rate (APR) statistics included more per-fect 1,000 scores by Irish teams (nine) than by any other FBS institution. The 2010 Notre Dame APR report featured eight perfect 1,000 scores.

The past three years combined in Notre Dame athletics have featured 94 All-Americans, 19 Academic All-America selec-tions and five NCAA Post-Graduate Scholarship winners; record involvement in community service hours by Irish student-athletes; NCAA titles in 2011 in men’s and women’s fencing (a combined championship) and in 2010 in women’s soccer (with Randy Waldrum named coach of the year); NCAA runner-up team finishes in 2011 women’s basketball, 2010 men’s lacrosse, 2009 fencing and 2008 women’s soccer; NCAA semifinal appearances in 2011 hockey, 2009 and 2010 women’s tennis and 2009 women’s soccer, plus a 2010 third-place fencing finish; a men’s basket-ball modern program record 27 victories and a number-two NCAA seed (its highest in 30 years) in 2010-11 (resulting in national coach of the year awards for Mike Brey); the hiring of new Irish head football coach Brian Kelly to start the 2010 season; construction of a new, freestanding ice hockey arena, scheduled to open for the 2011-12 season, plus the 2009-10 dedications of new facilities for soccer and lacrosse – as well

as opening of the new Purcell Pavilion within the south dome of the Joyce Center.

Born in Yonkers, N.Y., and raised in Yonkers and Bloomington, Ind., Swarbrick is a 1976 magna cum laude graduate of Notre Dame with a bachelor’s degree in economics. Upon graduating from Stanford University Law School in 1980, he returned to Indiana to accept a position as an associate in the Indianapolis law firm Baker & Daniels. He made partner in 1987 and spent 28 years overall with the firm.

As a member of the Indiana Sports Corporation, including the chairmanship from 1992 to 2001, Swarbrick led many of the city’s suc-cessful proposals to a wide array of athletics organizations – from the National Football League to the United States Olympic Committee to the Big Ten Conference. His lead-ership efforts resulted in the city earning the right to play host to the 2012 Super Bowl in Indianapolis at Lucas Oil Stadium; becoming the home of the National Collegiate Athletic Association national head-quarters in 1999; hosting the 1987 Pan American Games, 1991 World Gymnastics Championships, NCAA Men’s Basketball Final Fours and other college championship compe-titions and an array of national and world championships in Olympic sports.

At Baker & Daniels, Swarbrick served as general counsel for numerous national gov-erning bodies of Olympic sports, including USA Gymnastics and USRowing, and as a con-sultant to the 1996 Summer Olympic Games in Atlanta.

In his work as an advisor to the NCAA, Swarbrick coordinated the men’s College Basketball Partnership, an NCAA-led group that addresses the opportunities and chal-

lenges in the sport, and developed the business plan for the new NBA/NCAA youth basketball enterprise, iHoops. In 2000 Swarbrick received one of the NCAA’s highest honors, The Flying Wedge Award, for his work in establishing Indianapolis as the new home of the NCAA. In 2001 the State of Indiana presented him with the Sagamore of the Wabash Award.

Born March 19, 1954, Swarbrick was named Notre Dame’s 12th athletics director on July 16, 2008. He and his wife, Kimberly, are the parents of four children: Kate, a 2010 graduate of St. Louis University; Connor, a 2011 graduate of Wake Forest University; Cal, a sophomore at TCU; and Christopher, a University of Notre Dame freshman.

Niall Fitzgerald leads a four-member senior class that looks to lead a now-veteran Irish roster to BIG EAST and NCAA success in 2011-12.


Spencer Talmadge (pictured), along with doubles partner Niall Fitzgerald, look to headline a very potent trio of doubles teams at Notre Dame’s disposal this upcoming year.

Battling injuries and a tough schedule, the 2010-11 Notre Dame men’s tennis team finished second at the BIG EAST Tournament and advanced to the second round of the NCAA Tournament, where the Irish fell to perennial power Ohio State.

Now a year later and with a team at full strength, head coach Bobby Bayliss expects a much different result.

“All my thoughts on this season are based on the assumption that we can remain healthy,” said Bayliss. “However, if we can stay healthy and get consistent performances from Casey (Watt), Niall (Fitzgerald) and Billy (Pecor), I believe we can have a top 20 team. We have a deep team when our top players are playing well.”

The Irish, who ended last season with an 18-12 record, return eight monogram winners from a year ago. Besides Watt, Fitzgerald and Pecor, probable singles starters Greg Andrews and Sam Keeton and talented doubles player Spencer Talmadge also return.

“We probably have 10 potential singles starters,” said Bayliss. “We will assess these guys every day in practice to find the right combination to help this team win.”

SinglesWatt returns as the team’s top singles

player for the third consecutive season. Last year, the Gibsonia, Pa., native went 18-21 overall as he battled 15 ranked foes, eventually earning all-BIG EAST accolades.

“When Casey is playing well, he is capable of playing with the best players in the country,” said Bayliss.

Fitzgerald played off and on in singles last season, but made his mark with Talmadge to form a formidable doubles duo. The pair went 22-17 together, including marks of 6-8 at No. 1 doubles and 9-4 at No. 2 doubles. They split six matches against fellow ranked foes. They enter the 2011-12 campaign with a No. 21 national ranking in the International Tennis Association’s (ITA) preseason doubles rankings.

This season Bayliss sees Fitzgerald having a positive impact in singles as well.

“Niall has the potential to be an elite player,” said Bayliss. “We see flashes of it in practice,

last season is sophomore Greg Andrews, the reigning BIG EAST Rookie of the Year. Andrews went 13-9 at the No. 4 position last year and improved steadily throughout the season, resulting in a 16-6 record over his final 22 matches.

but we are waiting on it to become more commonplace in matches.”

Pecor missed the entire 2011 spring season with injury, but did show promise in putting together a 10-2 mark in 2010 fall matches.

Looking to transition smoothly into the No. 2 singles spot after playing No. 4 primarily

practice and Wyatt and Michael (Moore) have worked well together in practice and early matches,” said Bayliss.

The Irish know how important the doubles point is to their success. Last year, Notre Dame won the doubles point in 11 of its first 12 matches, going 8-4 in those contests. After the first 12, the Irish only won seven of the final 18 doubles points, going 10-8.

ScheduleBayliss is nationally-known for putting

together a challenging schedule, and this year is no different.

Matches against 15 teams that ended the 2011 season ranked, and 14 home matches highlight the schedule.

The Irish, who finished the season ranked 31st by the International Tennis Association (ITA) in 2011, play national powers Ohio State (No. 3, March 3) and Kentucky (No. 8, Feb. 12) at home, while hitting the road to meet Texas A&M (No. 10, April 9), Duke (No. 12, Feb. 5), Illinois (No. 17, Jan. 22) and Wake Forest (No. 33, Feb. 3).

Notre Dame also will play host to BIG EAST Champion Louisville (No. 24, April 14) to end the regular season and welcome other nationally ranked squads in Maryland (No. 39, March 4), Michigan State (No. 53, Feb. 26), DePaul (No. 67, April 4) and Wisconsin (No. 71, Feb. 10).

Also scheduled to make a run at a top singles spot is senior Sam Keeton. Last year Keeton finished at 12-8, playing nine matches at the No. 5 singles spot and putting together a 5-4 record.

Looking to secure a singles spot are several other returning veterans. These include juniors Blas Moros and Michael Moore and sophomore Ryan Bandy.

In addition to Watt and Andrews, Moros is the only other returning starter from a year ago for the Irish. Competing primarily at No. 6 singles, Moros compiled a 21-11 overall record, including a 16-5 record during the spring. At No. 6 singles the Boca Raton, Fla., product went 12-5.

Neither Moore nor Bandy saw much action after the fall of last season, but Bayliss thinks both are positioning themselves to help the team out this season.

“Michael is playing at a level where he could easily be a starter,” said Bayliss. “And Ryan has made great improvement from last year.”

Three talented freshmen begin their careers with the Irish this season. Dougie Barnard, Michael Fredericka and Wyatt McCoy are all set to wear the Notre Dame blue and gold for the first time.

Bayliss is pleased with the progression of all three, citing Barnard’s all-around game, McCoy’s speed and Fredericka’s backhand as areas that could give opponents fits.

DoublesIn doubles play, the Irish return their No. 1

doubles team from last year in the previously mentioned Talmadge and Fitzgerald. Talmadge brings a big serve and great forehand to the duo, while also providing good net play. Bayliss cites Fitzgerald as a solid all-around doubles player.

Last year’s No. 3 doubles team in Watt and Andrews will become this season’s No. 2 doubles squad. The pair went 10-3 on the year and won eight of their last 10 matches.

The No. 3 doubles team is up in the air, as three teams fight for the open spot.

Pecor and Keeton pose a strong threat to opponents, as each possesses valuable doubles skills.

“Keeton is one of the best returners on the team,” said Bayliss. “Pecor hits the biggest ball on the team, and honestly can be overwhelming at times.”

Two other pairs are McCoy and Moore and Barnard and Fredericka.

“Michael (Fredericka) and Dougie bring a great level of competitiveness and effort to

Other road contests against nationally-ranked foes include Indiana (No. 30, Jan. 29), Michigan (No. 34, Feb. 18) and South Florida (No. 46, March 17). The Irish also will play either Ohio State or Cornell (No. 43) on Jan. 29 depending on who wins a Jan. 29 match up between the Buckeyes and the Big Red.

“We like to play one of the toughest schedules in the country every year,” said Bayliss. “Our goal is to be prepared for the BIG EAST and NCAA Tournaments, and we think a schedule with this number of quality teams does just that. We get enough opportunities at playing top-20 teams, so if we can win some of those matches, we will be pretty highly ranked. Our goal is to be a top-16 seed and host NCAAs.”

OutlookThe Irish are poised for success with many

talented veterans returning, and Bayliss realizes that. However, he knows that it takes more than just talented players to have national success.

“We’ll be as talented as anyone in the BIG EAST,” said Bayliss. “It’s just a question of how we are playing at the important times of the season and if we can stay healthy.”

For a program that has won six BIG EAST titles, but none since 2008, the 2011-12 campaign is filled with much promise as the Irish look to reclaim their place at the top of the BIG EAST mountain.

Billy Pecor, now fully recovered from an injury that saw his rookie campaign cut short, hopes to make a major impact during his sophomore season amongst a talented Notre Dame team.

Head coach Bob Bayliss (right) and associate head coach Ryan Sachire (left) prepare to begin their sixth campaign together with the Notre Dame men’s tennis team, looking to push the Irish to the NCAA Tournament for the ninth consecutive season.


Head Coach Bob Bayliss

He also serves as co-chairperson of the ITA ethics and infractions committee and is on the executive and budget and collegiate hall of fame committees. Formerly he was the assistant chair of the ITA’s Division I operating committee.

On two occasions, Bayliss has been selected to lead a team of collegiate all-stars into foreign competition. In the summer of 1991, Bayliss guided the United States team to a gold medal at the World University Games in Sheffield, England.

In the summer of 2003, he led an ITA All-Star Team to Tokyo, Japan, to take part in two “Dream Matches” - exhibition showdowns with the top Japanese collegiate tennis program (Waseda University) and a Japanese collegiate all-star squad. Bayliss and the USA were victorious in two hard-fought contests.

The popular coach wasted little time in making his mark on Notre Dame men’s tennis program. In just the third year under Bayliss, 1990, Notre Dame received its first-ever listing in the ITA national rankings. DiLucia advanced to the NCAA Singles Championship for the second year and was named one of 16 seeded competitors, becoming the first Irish player to earn All-America honors in 22 years.

The remainder of the 1990’s marked Bayliss returning Irish men’s tennis to the national forefront. The reemergence of the pro-gram began promptly in ’91 when Bayliss and the Irish earned a berth to the NCAA Championship for the first time since the team format was adopted in 1977. This feat was immediately matched

Over the past 42 years, Bob Bayliss has built a reputation as one of the top collegiate tennis coaches in the country. Few others have turned out so many exceptional players, had such great team success and earned as many honors as Bayliss, who is entering his 25th season as head coach of the Fighting Irish.

During his tenure with the Irish, Bayliss has seen several mile-stone wins posted on his historic ledger. With just his ninth victory as head of the Irish, the new Notre Dame skipper recorded his 300th career win, posting a 9-0 shutout of Marquette on March 4, 1988. Since then Bayliss has posted his 400th (Indiana, 6-1 on March 3, 1993), 500th (Duke, 4-3 on March 26, 1998), 600th (Virginia Tech, 4-2 on May 1, 2004) and 700th (Middle Tennessee State, 4-2 on March 18, 2010) career victories all while heading the Irish program.

Over his 42 years of coaching, Bayliss has posted an overall record of 725-322-1 (.692). Bayliss is one of just three active Division I men’s coaches with at least 700 career wins. In his 24 seasons at Notre Dame, Bayliss has a 434-219 (.665) record.

Bayliss’ teams’ accomplishments speak for themselves. Not only has he led the Irish to 20 NCAA Championship berths in the past 21 seasons but he also has helped his teams post 10 top-20 finishes in that time. Bayliss’ squads have advanced to the round-of-16 in the NCAA tournament on seven occasions, including a

quarterfinal appearance in 1993 and a trip to the NCAA title match in 1992.

Since Bayliss took over the program, 10 Notre Dame men’s tennis student-athletes have combined to earn All-America cita-tions on 19 occasions and have brought home eight ITA national awards. A pair of Irish players and three Notre Dame doubles teams have earned national rankings in the top-five under Bayliss. Six of his players have been honored with the Byron V. Kanaley Award, the most prestigious honor given to Notre Dame senior student-athlete monogram winners who have been exemplary both as students and leaders.

The professional ranks have been the next step for a number of competitors who spent four years under Bayliss’ tutelage. David DiLucia, who was ranked No. 1 nationally in both singles and dou-bles while at Notre Dame, went on to a successful pro career in which he played in the singles main draw of all four grand-slam events, entered the world top-100 in doubles and clinched the 2001 World Team Tennis title for the Philadelphia Freedoms. He also served as the personal coach of Lindsay Davenport, the former world No. 1-ranked women’s player. Three other former Notre Dame players (Richard Cahill, Andy Zurcher, and current associate head coach Ryan Sachire) have been ranked among the world’s top-400 doubles players, and a total of 15 former Irish players have gone on to earn an Association of Tennis Professionals (ATP) singles and/or doubles professional ranking since 1999.

Bayliss’ talent has not gone unnoticed among his peers, as he has been honored as national coach of the year twice. He also is a five-time Midwest Region Coach of the Year and has been named the top coach in his conference on 14 occasions. In 1995, he was honored with the Meritorious Service Award - which previously had been bestowed upon just six coaches - for his extraordinary contri-butions to collegiate tennis and his service to the collegiate tennis community throughout his career.

Notre Dame’s Monogram Club recognized Bayliss’ accomplish-ments by awarding him an honorary monogram in 1993. At the time, he was one of just three Irish coaches to have been so honored.

Bayliss currently serves on the ITA executive board of directors.

tennis camps in the summer and completed the USTA’s High Performance Coaching Program in 2002. In 2005, he traveled to Wimbledon to participate in a High Performance Continuing Education Program organized by the USTA.

Assistant coaches have benefited from spending time under Bayliss, as four have been named the top assistant in the Midwest Region since 1997. Four recent Irish assistants have gone on to head coaching positions. Brian Kalbas stayed on as an assistant under his former coach after graduating in 1989, eventually leaving for the head women’s tennis job at William & Mary. Kalbas is a two-time National Coach of the Year and now serves as head coach of North Carolina. Billy Pate (200-02) is the head coach at Alabama.

Bayliss received his bachelor of arts degree in English at the University of Richmond (1966), where he also captained the tennis team and was a member of the basketball squad. In 2002, he was inducted into the University of Richmond Athletics Hall of Fame. A member of Omicron Delta Kappa (national leadership fraternity), he completed his master’s degree in English at Richmond in 1971.

Bayliss and his wife, Pat, have four children: Jackie, Rob, Brendan, and Patrick. All of them graduated from Notre Dame.

only excelled on the courts, but also in the classroom as they were named to the ITA all-Academic team.

In 2009, Brett Helgeson earned his second consecutive NCAA Singles Championship bid. Helgeson advanced to the round-of-32 before his run came to an end. He was ranked as high as No. 18 in the ITA rankings (Feb. 19) before finishing the season ranked 28th in the nation. Helgeson was named to the 2009 all-BIG EAST team along with Watt.

During the 2009-10 season, Bayliss led his squad to the NCAA Tournament for the 19th time in the past 20 years. The Irish were runner-ups in the BIG EAST Championship while three of Bayliss’ players, Casey Watt, Stephen Havens and Daniel Stahl were named to the all-BIG EAST team and finished 39th in the Intercollegiate Tennis Association (ITA) rankings. The squad had been ranked as high as 30th during the season.

In 2010, Casey Watt, a two-time all-BIG EAST team member, received a singles bid to the NCAA Tournament, making it the fifth-straight season that Bayliss has sent at least one student-athlete to the event. Watt fell in the first round of the tournament, but was ranked 51st by the ITA just before the end of his season.

Last season, the Irish again earned a spot in the NCAA Team Championship after putting together an 18-12 ledger that saw them advance to the title match of the BIG EAST Championship. The squad, which finished the year ranked 31st, reached the second round of the tournament at the Ohio State-hosted regional.

At Notre Dame, Bayliss remains responsible for much more than just providing the Irish with a winning men’s tennis record. He oversees the Eck Tennis Pavilion, and has been responsible for improving the Courtney Tennis Center and erecting stadium-type bleachers for that outdoor facility as well as the resurfacing of the courts in August 2008. A series of free clinics for the Notre Dame and South Bend communities organized by Bayliss won the Irish pro-gram a grant from Volvo Tennis.

Bayliss came to Notre Dame after a three-year stint at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology where he guided the MIT men’s tennis team to a 43-23-1 (.649) record. He led MIT to two consecutive New England Intercollegiate titles, including the first in school history. He also was an assistant professor of physical educa-tion and the tennis pro at the Wellesley (Mass.) Country Club.

Before his stint at MIT, Bayliss spent 15 seasons at Navy (1970-84), where he led the Midshipmen to a 248-80 (.756) record. Being named the 1980 National Coach of the Year by the United States Professional Tennis Association highlighted his tenure. Navy fin-ished with a 19-5 record that season and Bayliss was named the Maryland Professional of the Year.

He is the only Navy men’s tennis coach that never lost to Army and he was named the Mid-Atlantic Conference Coach of the Year in three consecutive seasons from 1978-80 before guiding the Middies to a 22-3 record in 1982. In addition to his tennis duties at Navy, Bayliss was an assistant professor of English and an associate profes-sor of physical education. He also coached Navy’s squash team to a 42-16 (.724) record from 1978-1982. In the fall of 2005, Bayliss was recognized by Navy with both a plaque in the squash facility and the renaming of one of the tennis courts in his honor.

Bayliss remains nationally esteemed in his profession. He has lectured at the (USTA) program for teaching professionals and at the National Tennis Coaches convention. He oversees the Notre Dame

and done one better, when, in ’92, Bayliss coached his team to the NCAA Finals.

All told, over the course of the decade Bayliss and his Irish squads qualified for nine NCAA Championships, reaching the round of 16 or further on four occasions. In addition to their NCAA rebirth, Bayliss and his teams were able to capture conference titles eight times in that span – six in the Midwestern Collegiate Conference and two in the BIG EAST after joining for the 1995-96 campaign.

Individually, Bayliss coached several of his players to national prominence led by DiLucia who graduated as a five-time All-American and winner of the Dan Magill Award as the top senior collegiate tennis player in the country. The list of accomplishments continues with one other player (Andy Zurcher) being named the Dan Magill Award winner and two additional players (Chuck Coleman, Mike Sprouse) receiving the Tennis Magazine/Arthur Ashe National Collegiate Award for Sportsmanship and Leadership. On top of all that, six of Bayliss’ players were tabbed as All-Americans on 13 occasions in the ‘90’s alone, including the team-best five selec-tions for DiLucia.

For his hard work with the team during the ‘90’s, Bayliss enjoyed plenty of recognition of his own. Culminating by being named the ITA National Coach of the Year following the ’92 season, Bayliss five times was tabbed as the conference Coach of the Year between both the Midwestern Collegiate Conference and the BIG EAST (three times in MCC and twice in BIG EAST), as well as three times (’91, ’92, ’95) being selected as the ITA Midwest Region Coach of the Year.

What started as a foundation for the return of the men’s pro-gram in the ‘90’s turned into continued successes at the turn of the millennium. The 2000 Irish nearly pulled off the biggest upset in the history of the NCAA Team Championship, but No. 2 UCLA eventually prevailed 4-2 over the 34th-ranked Irish. Former Irish player and current associate head coach with Notre Dame Ryan Sachire also became the first Irish player to ever win the Ted A. Farnsworth/ITA National Senior Player of the Year Award and the John Van Nostrand Memorial Award, which gives a cash stipend to a senior player intending to pursue a professional career.

The 2001 squad vaulted from a preseason ranking of 33rd to a season-high 10th before finishing at 16th. For the first time since 1993, the Irish won the Blue Gray National Classic and returned to the top 10.

Between 2001-08, the Irish continued their tennis success, claiming five BIG EAST championship titles. Bayliss was named the BIG EAST conference Coach of the Year five times in that period (‘02, `04, `05, ‘07 and `08), while seeing four of his players named All-Americans, Javier Taborga (2002), Casey Smith (2002), Sheeva Parbhu (2006) and Steven Bass (2007).

During the 2010 season, Sachire guided Casey Watt and Daniel Stahl to their second all-BIG EAST honor and Stephen Havens to his first all-league award. Watt also finished runner-up at the ITA Midwest Regional and advanced to the NCAA Singles Championship Draw.

Last season, Sachire helped a talented group of newcomers make an immediate impact with the Irish as Billy Pecor put together a 10-2 fall campaign before being lost to injury, while Greg Andrews composed

One of the top players in the 87-year history of the University of Notre Dame men’s tennis program, Ryan Sachire is in his sixth year at his alma mater. He served the first two as an assistant coach before being promoted to associate head coach in the summer of 2008. Sachire ended his professional career in 2005 and was an assistant at Baylor in 2005-06, helping the Bears reach the semifinals of the NCAA Championship. A three-time singles All-

American, he replaced former Irish assis-tant Todd Doebler, who was hired as the head coach at Penn State.

Sachire’s effect on the Irish took abso-lutely no time to take hold. In his first sea-son at Notre Dame, the Irish reached the NCAA round-of-16 for the second straight year, finished with the most victories in a single-season since 1980-81 and ended the campaign ranked sixth in the country (the highest ranking to close a season since being ranked third at the completion of the 1991-92 season). Sachire also was instru-mental in the performance of Stephen Bass, who not only became the 18th All-American in Notre Dame men’s tennis his-tory, but also captured the John Van Nostrand Memorial Award, which provides a stipend to the top senior player embark-ing on a professional career (an award Sachire captured in 2000).

In 2008, Sachire again helped guide the Irish to the BIG EAST title and their 17th NCAA Championship appearance. Notre

runner-up result in 1996. Sachire three times was invited to be on the elite USTA Summer Collegiate Team that trains and plays pro tournaments together in the summer.

Sachire ranks among the top five in 13 different categories in the Irish record book. Among his notable career rankings are second in combined singles and dou-bles victories (211) and combined singles and doubles dual-match victories (141), third in wins at No. 1 singles and doubles dual-match victories (64), as well as fifth in singles dual-match wins (77).

He helped the Irish compile a 67-33 (.670) mark during his collegiate days, as well as four consecutive finishes in the national top 35 (including 16th in 1997), four NCAA tournament bids and the 1999 BIG EAST Conference championship. Sachire was twice tabbed the conference tournament MVP and was the ITA Midwest Region Player of the Year in 1998 and 2000 after being the region’s top rookie in ‘97. He was voted the team’s MVP four times. A two-time BIG EAST Conference Academic All-Star, Sachire graduated in 2000 with a degree in economics.

Upon leaving Notre Dame, Sachire played five years of professional tennis, climbing to as high as 184th in the ATP (Association of Tennis Professionals) world doubles rankings and 391st in singles. He captured 16 tournament titles in doubles, 14 on the futures circuit, as well as chal-lenger-level championships at Waco in 2002 and Atlantic City in 2003. In singles, Sachire has a pair of pro titles to his credit, winning futures events in St. Joseph, Mo. (2002) and Lachine, Quebec (2003). He was among the top 35 American players in the ATP rankings in both singles and dou-bles and also served as director of tennis for the Wickertree Tennis and Fitness Center in Columbus, Ohio, before joining the Baylor staff.

Born April 2, 1978, Sachire is a native of Canfield, Ohio, and a 1996 graduate of Canfield High School. He dropped just five singles matches during his entire prep career en route to capturing a pair of Ohio state singles titles. He also was ranked as high as 24th in the USTA national singles rankings in the 16-and-under division.

Sachire married the former Cindy Harding - a 1999 Notre Dame graduate and former Irish cheerleader - on June 30, 2006, in the Basilica of the Sacred Heart on the Notre Dame campus. Ryan and Cindy have two daughters, Anna and Emily.

a 24-14 record, including 16-10 during the dual season that he eventually parlayed into being named BIG EAST Freshman of the Year; the first time an Irish player has earned the honor since the inception of the award.

Sachire also has been a major factor in recruiting, as each of the five recruiting classes since his return to the Irish have ranked among the top-15 in the country, including this year’s class of freshmen which was ranked 13th in the nation by TennisRecruiting.net.

Sachire was instrumental in helping Baylor compile an outstanding season in 2005-06. Despite losing two NCAA singles champions (Benjamin Becker and Benedikt Dorsch) to graduation, the Bears finished 25-7 and No. 4 in the Intercollegiate Tennis Association (ITA) national rankings. Baylor advanced all the way to the semifinals of the NCAA Championship before falling 4-3 to then-undefeated national No. 1 Georgia. The Bears won their fifth consecutive Big 12Conference championship. Sachire helped several individual players to strong performances, as sophomore Lars Poerschke ascended to the national No. 1 ranking in singles on Jan. 10, 2006, and went on to be an All- American. Baylor ended up with three players (Poerschke No. 4, Michal Kokta No. 34, Matija Zgaga No. 62) and two doubles teams (Kokta/Poerschke No. 11, John Reckewey/Zgaga No. 51) in the final ITA national rankings.

Sachire remains one of the top players

in Irish tennis history. He is the only Notre Dame player ever to win 30-plus singles matches in all four of his collegiate seasons and one of only two to earn four invitations to the NCAA Singles Championship. One of three Notre Dame players ever to be a three-time All- American, he finished in the national top 40 in singles four times and on five occasions appeared at a career-high of No. 2 in the ITA national singles rankings (four of those instances saw him behind only Harvard’s James Blake). Sachire posted a 138-43 record in singles - placing him second on Notre Dame’s all-time wins list - and a 73-32 mark in doubles.

In 2000, he swept the ITA’s major awards for seniors, being tabbed the Ted A. Farnsworth/ITA National Senior Player of the Year while winning the John Van Nostrand Memorial Award, which provides a stipend to the top senior player embark-ing on a professional career.

An elite singles player throughout his career - he was 72-19 at No. 1 singles - Sachire was a regular in the collegiate grand slams. His best result was a trip to the title match of the 1998 ITA All-American Championships, where he lost to Blake. He also won the consolation title in the 1999 ITA National Intercollegiate Indoor Championships and reached the semifinals of the 1999 ITA National Clay Court Championships. He also reached the semifinals of the ITA Midwest Championships three times, including a


Now in his sixth season at the University of Notre Dame, Brian Hardin is in his third year of serving as the men’s tennis administra-tor.

Hardin also serves as director of football media relations and is the primary media contact for the Fighting Irish football program. He works with head coach Brian Kelly, the Notre Dame players and assistant coaches as their primary day-to-day liason with the media. He coordinates interviews, oversees production of football publications and other football publicity items.

Prior to joining the Notre Dame athletics staff, Hardin spent three seasons working in the media relations department of the National Football League’s Chicago Bears.

Originally from Des Moines, Iowa, Hardin also spent one sea-son as an intern in the Loyola University sports information office in Chicago.

A 2002 graduate of Marquette University, Hardin earned his bachelor’s degree in journalism and was a four-year letterwinner in track & field, captaining the team as a senior.

Born Feb. 6, 1980, Hardin and his wife, Cara, reside in South Bend and recently welcomed a son to the family, Noah.

Dr. Hugh Page, the dean of the First Year of Studies and an associate professor in both theology and Africana Studies at the University of Note Dame, is in his 15th year as a volunteer assistant coach with the Irish.

Page has been active in teaching tennis since 1975, when he began his career with All American Sports, Inc., a pioneer in the tennis industry. He has worked at a number of tennis camps in New England and has coached ranked players from the U.S., South America, and Europe. He is a member of both the United States Professional Tennis Association and the United States Professional Tennis Registry.

Page, a 1977 graduate of Hampton University, holds master’s and Ph.D. degrees from Harvard University.

Ashlynd Romkema is in her second season with the men’s program and is responsible for helping to plan all aspects of road trips. She also assists with home matches. The hard work she puts in with the team has helped her earn the title of “team mom” from associate head coach Ryan Sachire.

Majoring in mathematics with a minor in secondary educa-tion, Romekema is set to graduate from Saint Mary’s in May 2012. She will student teach at John Adams High School in the spring of 2012 and is looking for a full-time job in New York City. Her favorite memories include getting to know the team and learning the sport through watching them play.

The BIG EAST ConferenceThe 2011-12 academic year is the 33rd in the

history of The BIG EAST Conference as the unique consortium marches on competing at the highest level with integrity and sportsmanship.

The BIG EAST has gone through membership changes since its birth, but the 2011-12 year marks the conference’s seventh straight with the same 16-member group, making for the nation’s largest Division I-A conference.

The BIG EAST Conference’s goals have always been the same. The outstanding performances of the student-athletes at BIG EAST schools are evidence of the league’s proud tradition of success. The league has always been able to boast that many of its best students are also its best athletes. The 2010-11 year was no different.

Seven BIG EAST student-athletes were named NCAA Postgraduate Scholarship winners, while 22 earned Capital One Academic All-America recognition. Maya Moore, Connecticut’s women’s basketball standout, won the NCAA Honda-Broderick Cup as the nation’s top female student-athlete and was chosen as the Capital One Academic All-America of the Year.

In the athletic arena, BIG EAST student-athletes again enjoyed success on the national stage. The Connecticut men’s basketball team won its third national championship, completing a magical run through five games of the BIG EAST Championship and six wins in the NCAA tournament. The Villanova women’s cross country team won the NCAA title for the second straight year and the ninth time overall. The Notre Dame women’s soccer team won its third NCAA title, while BIG EAST teams reached national championship games in women’s basketball (Notre Dame) and men’s soccer (Louisville).

The BIG EAST placed two teams in the NCAA Women’s Final Four for the second time in the last three years as Connecticut joined Notre Dame in Indianapolis, capping a season in which the Huskies extended their NCAA-record winning streak to 90 games.

Individually, BIG EAST student-athletes won five NCAA championships, including an unprecedented four by Villanova’s Sheila Reid. Reid was the 2010 individual cross country champion, a member of the Wildcats’ winning indoor distance medley relay team and won the 5,000- and 1,500-meter titles in outdoor track & field. Louisville’s Matt Hughes, meanwhile, repeated as the NCAA champion in the 3,000-meter steeplechase at the NCAA outdoor meet.

Moore and Reid joined Notre Dame soccer standout Melissa Henderson as winners of Honda Sports Awards as the top performers in their respective sports. Moore also became the first three-time winner of the Wade Trophy as the nation’s top women’s basketball player and joined Villanova lacrosse player Brian Karalunas as winners of the Lowe’s Senior CLASS Award.

BIG EAST football maintained its national profile as a competitively balanced group. Connecticut claimed the league’s Bowl Championship Series bid for the first time as the Huskies shared the conference title with Pittsburgh and West Virginia. Six of the league’s eight squads went to bowl games and helped the BIG EAST post a 4-2 bowl record for the second straight year.

The BIG EAST became the nation’s largest Division I-A conference in 2005-06 when five new

members began competing – the University of Cincinnati, DePaul University, the University of Louisville, Marquette University and the University of South Florida.

BIG EAST institutions reside in nine of the nation’s top 35 largest media markets, including New York, Chicago, Philadelphia, Washington, D.C., Tampa, Pittsburgh, Hartford, Cincinnati and Milwaukee. With its newest members, BIG EAST markets contain almost one-fourth of all television households in the U.S. When Texas Christian University joins the conference in the 2012-13 academic year, the conference will have a footprint in 30 percent of the nation’s television households.

Since opening its doors in 1979, the league has won 31 national championships in six different sports and 133 student-athletes have won individual national titles.

In 2003-04, Connecticut became the first school in NCAA history to win the men’s and women’s NCAA basketball titles in the same season. In ’02-03, the BIG EAST became the first conference in NCAA history to win the men’s and women’s titles in the same year when the Syracuse men and the Connecticut women captured their respective national championships. In men’s basketball, BIG EAST squads have won four of the last 13 NCAA championships. BIG EAST women’s teams have taken seven of the last 12 NCAA titles.

Proactive movement has been a signature strategy for the conference that was born in 1979. The BIG EAST continually turns challenges into opportunities to become stronger. The conference currently crowns champions in 24 sports.

The BIG EAST became a reality on May 31, 1979, following a meeting of athletic directors from Providence College, St. John’s, Georgetown and Syracuse universities. Seton Hall, Connecticut and Boston College completed the original seven school alliance.

While the membership has both increased and changed, the focus of the BIG EAST has not wavered. The conference reflects a tradition of broad based programs, led by administrators and coaches who place a constant emphasis on academic integrity. Its student athletes own significantly high graduation rates and their record of scholastic achievement notably show a balance between intercollegiate athletics and academics.

Any successful organization has had the good fortune to have outstanding leadership. The BIG EAST primarily was the brainchild of Dave Gavitt, who was the conference’s first Commissioner. Michael Tranghese, the league’s first full-time employee, and for 11 years the associate to Gavitt, became Commissioner in 1990. In his first year, he administered the formation of The BIG EAST Football Conference.

John Marinatto, who had served as senior associate commissioner, moved into the Commissioner’s chair in 2009 and has continued to steer the conference on its path of success.

The league has long been considered a leader in innovative concepts in promotion and publicity, particularly regarding television. Those efforts have resulted in unparalleled visibility for BIG EAST student athletes. The conference has enjoyed longstanding relationships with CBS, ESPN, Inc. and ABC.

BIG EAST men’s basketball games are regular sellouts at campus and major public arenas, including the annual men’s BIG EAST Championship in Madison Square Garden. The women’s basketball championship has led all conferences in attendance for the past eight years. Attendance figures also are significant in soccer and baseball.

The BIG EAST has its headquarters in Providence where the conference administers to more than 5,500 student-athletes.

Jerry Evert (left) – whose niece Chris went on to win 18 professional grand-slam titles and to be the world’s #1 women’s player – and Charles Samson (right), who became President of Texas A&M, teamed up to reach the semifinals of the NCAA doubles tournament, helping the Irish earn a share of the 1944 national championship. Samson, the NCAA singles runner-up that year, returned to his alma mater as head coach in the mid-1950s, recruiting a number of players who would win the second Irish national title in 1959.


NCAA Championships

Notre Dame’s 1944 team headed to Northwestern for the 60th NCAA Championships in search of its first national intercollegiate title after being proclaimed the mythical “Western Tennis Champions” with a perfect 9-0 record. Each team was allowed to enter four players and the total score of a team was determined by the number of wins of those individuals from the quarterfinals on.

The “Big Four” of Jerry Evert, Jim Griffin, Charles Samson and Bill Tully, who had combined to lose just one time in the regular season, came through for head coach Walter Langford. A singles runner-up finish and a doubles semifinal showing were enough to earn the Irish a share of the title with Miami (Fla.) and Texas.

After all four won first-round singles matches, only Samson survived the second round. Unseeded, he advanced to the title match after ousting Gonzaga’s third-seeded Harry Likas 6-4, 6-4, 7-5 in the semifinals. Samson’s dream of an NCAA singles crown ended against Miami’s top-seeded Pancho Segura, whose two-handed backhand and attacking style helped him cruise through the draw without losing a set, gaining the second of his three consecutive NCAA singles titles.

In the doubles competition, Griffin and Tully dropped their opening-round match to the second- seeded team. Evert and Samson rallied the Irish with a semifinal showing, keyed by a quarterfinal upset of Pacific’s Arnold Beisser and George Druliner, to guarantee Notre Dame a share of the national title and make men’s tennis (along with men’s golf, which also won the 1944 NCAA title) the first Irish sport other than football to capture a national championship.

The Irish found success once again at Northwestern, site of the 1959 NCAA Championships. Despite a change making all singles and doubles victories count in the team score, Notre Dame shared the national title – this time with Tulane – when both teams finished with eight points.

Irish captain and No. 1 singles player Max Brown advanced to the singles semifinals before losing to San Jose State’s Whitney Reed, who went on to win the singles title.

Two matches between the eventual co-champions proved to be keys in the outcome: a singles quarterfinal and the doubles championship. Brown posted a 6-4, 6-2 victory over Tulane’s Ron Holmberg in singles, but Holmberg teamed with Crawford Henry to form the top-seeded team in the doubles draw. Brown and Bill Heinbecker needed a win over the Green Wave in the doubles title match to clinch the outright NCAA crown for the Irish. Henry and Holmberg rallied Tulane with a 6-3, 6-3, 6-2 victory to secure the doubles championship and a share of the NCAA title, the first time it had been shared since 1944.

The 1959 Notre Dame men’s tennis team proved to be one of the strongest teams in Irish history, as it won all 14 of its dual matches. Ten of the Irish victories were by 9-0 scores, three others were 8-1, and the only close match was a 5-4 win over Michigan, the Big Ten champion. The unbeaten season was the fifth of Notre Dame’s six perfect seasons and the first of two under legendary coach Tom Fallon.

Notre Dame wrote another chapter in its NCAA tennis history of success, as the Irish and top-ranked All-American David DiLucia stormed to the NCAA championship match in 1992. The 10th-seeded Irish were the lowest seed and first Northern team to reach the national title match since the current format was adopted in 1977.

After finishing the regular season with a 20-3 record, Notre Dame split the six singles matches with seventh-seeded Mississippi in its first-round contest. The Irish won in straight sets at No. 2 and No. 3 doubles to advance to the quarterfinals for the first time.

Notre Dame next faced host and third-seeded Georgia. The Irish built a 4-2 lead after singles. The Bulldogs rallied to knot the match at 4-4 after doubles wins at No. 1 and 3, but the Irish doubles team of Will Forsyth and Andy Zurcher clinched another upset with a 7-6 (7-5), 7-6 (7-5) win at No. 2.

Top-ranked and defending champion USC awaited Notre Dame in the semifinals with a 21-2 record. The Irish won two of the first three matches to take the lead and then won three different three-set matches to pull the 5-1 upset before doubles commenced.

Second-seeded Stanford stopped Notre Dame’s Cinderella run in the title match with a 5-0 win. The Cardinal won two three-set matches to help clinch the championship.

Davis Cup

participated in all but one Davis Cup (2001) through 2004, and his six career appearances tie him with Gabriel Montilla as the most by any Puerto Rican. Haddock’s 13-12 career record (10-9 singles, 3-3 doubles) place him behind only Montilla in career wins in the event. His Davis Cup career was highlighted by helping Puerto Rico post 10 consecutive wins from 1998-2000 en route to moving up to Group III. He then went 3-1 in singles play

in 2003, as Puerto Rico was unbeaten in four matches to move up to Group II of the Americas Zone. In

2004, Haddock lost to former University of Florida standout Mark Merklein (who won the

NCAA singles title at the Courtney Tennis Center in 1994) of the Bahamas in the Group II quarterfinals in February. He then went on to avenge a 2000 Davis Cup loss to Jamaica’s Ryan Russell in relegation play in April.

During his final two collegiate seasons, Lopez became the first Bayliss-era player to compete in the Davis Cup. He compiled a

6-8 record (0-3 singles, 6-5 doubles) in Americas Zone Group III action, helping El

Salvador to a 5-2 record in 1993 and a 3-1 mark in ’94.After just one season as a full-time professional,

King had moved into position to be a Davis Cup participant for Ireland by vaulting up 567 places in the ATP rankings (from 1,202 to 635 as of 2009). King graduated from the Mendoza College of Business as a finance major and worked in Dublin’s financial sector until the fall of 2008, when he then chose to focus on professional tennis. The switch has led to some great results as a professional, including a second-place finish at an ATP Futures Tour event in June of 2009.

Since the arrival of head coach Bob Bayliss, various players have represented their native lands in the Davis Cup -- the world-wide team tennis competition that has been contested for over a century.

Over the past 17 years, three Notre Dame players – Allan Lopez (’94) of El Salvador, Javier Taborga (’02) of Bolivia and Luis Haddock (’04) of Puerto Rico – have competed in Davis Cup action, while David DiLucia (’92) was a member of the prestigious United States team, though he never saw action. Irackli Akhvlediani was invited to play for his native Georgia in 2004, but he declined because of academic conflicts. Most recently, Barry King (’07) traveled with Ireland in the summer of 2009 to face Cyprus and Algeria, but he did not get into Ireland’s four-man lineup in either of those matches.

Taborga established himself as the most prolific Davis Cup player in Bolivian history. In five years of competition (1998-99, 2002-04), he holds a 21-15 (11-7 singles, 10-8 doubles) record. His victory total is the most for any Bolivian in the Davis Cup, while his 23 career ties played also are tops for his country. Taborga and Alberto Sottocorno stand as the best Bolivian doubles team, as they were unbeaten in five Davis Cup matches.

During his final season at Notre Dame, Taborga played in the Davis Cup and went unbeaten in both singles (4-0) and doubles (3-0) in helping Bolivia to a 4-0 record that moved it up to Group III of the Americas Zone. In his last Davis Cup performance, Taborga was 2-3 in singles and 2-2 in doubles in ’04, as Bolivia won two of five ties in

Group III action in Honduras. In ’98, Taborga notched a 6-3, 6-2 win against Haddock in Davis Cup doubles action in Bolivia.

Haddock holds the distinction of being the youngest player in Puerto Rico history to play in the Davis Cup, as he made his debut at the age of 16 in 1998. He has

Five-time All-American David DiLucia – who served as the personal coach for then-#1 Lindsay Davenport before her retirement – was ranked #1 in the nation in both singles and doubles during his career at Notre Dame, which culminated with him leading the Irish to the championship match of the 1992 NCAA tournament. He was inducted into the ITA Hall of Fame in 2008.

Irish All-AmericanIn the history of men’s tennis varsity competition at Notre Dame, 17

different Irish players have earned All-America honors on 32 occa-sions, spanning from 1944 to 2010. While All-Americans were determined by an NCAA committee for most of the 20th century, the Intercollegiate Tennis Association (ITA) adopted specific criteria for the honor in 1977.

The governing body of collegiate tennis each year bestows All-America honors upon all players who meet at least one of three crite-ria in singles or doubles. In singles, an individual must: 1) finish in the top 20 of the final ITA national singles rankings; 2) earn one of the 16 seeds in the NCAA Singles Championship; or 3) advance to the round of 16 in the NCAA Singles Championship. To earn All-America men-tion in doubles, a team must: 1) finish in top 10 of the final ITA national doubles rankings; 2) earn one of the eight seeds in the NCAA Doubles Championship; or 3) advance to the quarterfinals in the NCAA Doubles Championship.

David DiLucia (’92) is the only Irish player to earn All-America honors on five occasions, gaining mention in singles from 1990-92 and in doubles in the latter two seasons. Four players have gained All-America mention in three different years. Joining DiLucia are Don Ralph (1959-61), Chuck Coleman (1991-93), and Ryan Sachire (1998-2000). The only players to earn All-America honors in both singles and doubles in the same season are DiLucia (1991 & ‘92) and Javier Taborga (2002).

Byron V. Kanaley Award The most-prestigious honor awarded to a Notre Dame student-athlete, the Byron V. Kanaley Award has been presented each year since 1927 to senior monogram athletes who have been exemplary as students and leaders.

The awards, presented by the Faculty Board on Athletics, are named in honor of a 1904 Notre Dame graduate who was a member of the Irish baseball team as an undergraduate. Kanaley went on to a successful banking career in Chicago and served the University as a lay trustee from 1915 until his death in 1960.

Nine members of the Notre Dame men’s tennis team have received the award, including Luis Haddock in 2004 and Brent D’Amico in ’05.

NCAA Team Championship

Stephen Bass posted six combined (doubles and singles) wins in NCAA team championship play, including two singles wins in 2007.

Notre Dame in the NCAA Tournament

The University of Notre Dame men’s tennis team has advanced to the NCAA Championship in 20 of the last 21 years, making it one of only 11 Division I teams to hold that distinction. The run has been highlighted by a trip to the championship match in 1992 – the first by a Northern school since the inception of the team tour-nament – and an appearance in the quar-terfinals in 1993, as well as four other trips to the round of 16.Notre Dame won the NCAA Championship in 1959, along with Tulane, when the tour-nament was based on points gained from individual singles and doubles victories. The Irish also tied with Texas and Miami (Fla.) to win the national title in 1944, when only wins from the quarterfinals or later counted as team points. Notre Dame finished in the top 10 at the NCAAs 17 times from 1943-67.In 1977, the NCAA Championship became a 20-team event with all teams picked on an at-large basis. In 1994, the event developed into a regional format with the top eight teams in the country and eight regional winners advancing to a bracket of 16, which was played at a national site. In 1999, the championship expanded to 64 teams, dropped the regional format and imple-mented first- and second-round matches at 16 campus sites for every team in the championship. The 16 teams winning their second-round matches in 2011 advance to the national site in Palo Alto, Calif., for the final rounds of competition May 19-30.

Irish in the NCAA Singles & Doubles Championships

Notre Dame has had a number of outstand-ing results in the individual NCAA tourna-ments. Prior to 1977, the NCAA Championship consisted of a singles and doubles draw, with players earning points for their teams with victories. Jim Evert, whose daughter Chris went on to be the world’s No. 1 player and win 18 grand-slam singles titles, was the first Irish player to score a point in the NCAA Championship when he reached the singles semifinals in 1943. A year later, Charles Samson advanced to the singles title match before losing to three-time champ Pancho Segura. Also in 1944, a year in which Notre Dame won the national title, Samson and Jerry Evert (brother of Jim) made the doubles semifinals before bowing out. After both served time in the military, the Evert broth-ers teamed up in 1948 to reach that same round in the NCAAs.The best singles result by an Irish player under the old format after the 1940s was a semifinal finish by Maxwell Brown in 1959, while he and Bill Heinbecker posted the all-time best Notre Dame doubles result that same year, advancing to the final before losing to Tulane’s pair of Crawford Henry and Ronald Holmberg.In 1977, the NCAA adopted a separate team tournament and limited the singles and doubles draws to 64 and 32 entrants, respectively. (They had previously been open to an unlimited number of partici-pants.) Under the new format, Notre Dame has qualified 14 singles players and 13 doubles teams to the NCAAs, with all but two singles entrants coming since 1990. The 14 singles players have combined for a total of 24 NCAA Singles Championship appear-ances. Five times Irish players have advanced to the Round of 16, including on three occasions by David DiLucia. Sheeva Parbhu became the first Notre Dame player to reach the quarterfinals under the current format. In doubles, Andy Zurcher and Todd Wilson posted the best result, reaching the semifinals in front of a home crowd in 1994.

Collegiate Grand Slams

Irish Players in the Collegiate Grand Slam EventsThe collegiate grand slam consists of the three most-

prestigious individual national tournaments in college tennis: the ITA All-American Championships (played in October), the National Intercollegiate Indoor Championships (now played in November after being a February event until 2001-02), and the year-end NCAA Championships. From 1986 until 2000-01, the September National Clay Court Championships made up the fourth leg of the collegiate grand slam, but the event is no longer played.

Irish players have had considerable success in the col-legiate grand-slam events, earning runner-up finishes on three occasions: Ryan Sachire at the 1998 All-Americans, David DiLucia in the same event in ’91 and DiLucia/Chuck Coleman in the ’92 National Indoors. Notre Dame competitors have earned one of the top four seeds at a collegiate grand-slam event on 10 occa-sions, including four No. 1 seeds.

Bob Bayliss, who has helped the Irish win six BIG EAST titles, has been named the league’s top coach six times in the past 11 years.

Matthew Scott clinched Notre Dame’s 2002 BIG EAST title with a victory at No. 5 singles against Miami and then posted a win at No. 1 doubles in ‘03 to clinch a 4-3 semifinal victory over Virginia Tech, a match that lasted four hours and 48 minutes.

Conference DominanceFollowing 60 years competing as an independent, the University of Notre Dame men’s tennis team has had incredible success in conference action. The Irish have been league champions 14 times, including a streak of eight consecutive conference titles from 1988-89 to 1995-96. In its second stint in the league (four straight top-three fin-ishes from 1982-83 to 1985-86 when it was called the Midwestern City Conference), Notre Dame won seven Midwestern Collegiate Conference titles from 1988-89 to 1994-95. Since becoming a member of the BIG EAST Conference in the 1995-96 season, the Irish have reached the title match of the league tournament all but one season, claiming seven titles. Overall, Notre Dame has a 50-13 (.794) all-time mark against league rivals, includ-ing a 16-match winning streak from 1982-97.Ten members of the BIG EAST Conference – Connecticut, DePaul, Georgetown, Louisville, Marquette, Notre Dame, Rutgers, South Florida, St. John’s, and Villanova – field teams in men’s tennis, but the league does not require round-robin competition during the season. ND has an all-time record of 104-6 (.945) against those teams. The top eight squads, as selected by the conference based on national ranking and head-to-head results, earn invitations to the year-end BIG EAST Championship, a single-elimina-tion team tournament with the winner earning the league’s automatic berth in the NCAA Championship. The 2011 BIG EAST Championship will take place April 28-30 in Notre Dame, Ind. as the Irish play host to the event. Prior to 2001, all 10 teams qualified for the conference tournament, with the top two seeds gaining byes into the quarterfinals. From 2002-05, the event featured the top six squads, again with two teams gaining byes. For more information on the BIG EAST Conference, see page 68.Notre Dame faced Miami in eight straight BIG EAST finals (1996-2003), before upsetting top-seeded Virginia Tech in 2004 and beating Rutgers in the ’05 title match. The Irish won three times (1996, ’99, 2002) against the Hurricanes (who hosted the event until leaving the conference after the 2003-04 season). The ’03 final was rained out in prog-ress, with conference policy awarding the NCAA automatic berth to the top-seeded Hurricanes. In 17 early-round matches (first round though semifinals), Notre Dame has an 18-1 record. Additionally, the Irish have been the top seed heading into the tournament ten times.

Courtney Tennis Center

ter was built. The structure was razed in 1983. Indoor courts in Notre Dame’s Joyce Center also were used sporadically before the Eck Tennis Pavilion’s construction.

Notre Dame’s Courtney Tennis Center, the home of Irish tennis since its construction in 1967, has played host to the nation’s top play-ers on a number of occasions, while becoming an extremely difficult place for opposing teams to win.

Due to its exceptional facilities, Notre Dame has played host to a number of prestigious events, including serving as the national site of the NCAA Championships three times. Just four years after it was built, the Courtney Tennis Center played host to the 1971 NCAA Division I Men’s Tennis Championships, which featured what is still considered by coaches to be the fin-est collection of collegiate tennis talent ever as-sembled. In that spring classic, freshman Jimmy Connors of UCLA defeated Stanford’s Roscoe Tan-ner in five sets to capture the singles title. That pair would go on to reach a combined 17 grand slam singles finals on the pro tour, including eight victories. The Bruins swept all three titles, claiming their 10th team national champion-ship (besting runner-up Trinity University) and having Haroon Rahim and Jeff Browiak win the doubles championship.

The NCAA tournament came to Notre Dame again in 1994, and USC won its third national championship in four years by outlasting Stan-ford in the title match by a 4-3 score. Mark Merklein of the University of Florida won the singles championship, and Mississippi State’s Laurent Miquelard and Joc Simmons captured the doubles title, though the Notre Dame pair of former walk-ons Andy Zurcher and Todd Wilson reached the semifinals. It marked just the third different site to play host to the NCAA Cham-pionships since the current team format was established in 1977. The NCAA Women’s Tennis Championships came to Notre Dame in 1998, making it the northernmost site ever to play host to that event.

In all, the Courtney Tennis Center has played host to NCAA action on 14 occasions, including every year from 1994-2002 for either men’s or women’s play. Most recently, the Courtney Ten-nis Center hosted the first and seconds rounds of the 2009 NCAA Women’s Tennis Championship. It has been the site of conference champion-ships on nine occasions (three North Star, six Midwestern Collegiate), as well as an Intercol-legiate Tennis Association Summer Circuit event for 10 straight years (1994-2003). The Courtney Tennis Center also has played host to a fall tour-nament since 1970, being the site of the Irish Fall Invitational until 1986 and of the Tom Fallon Invitational since then.

The Irish played nearly exclusively at the Courtney Tennis Center until the Eck Tennis Pa-vilion was completed in 1988. The indoor facility now has become the predominant location of Notre Dame’s home matches, while the Court-ney Tennis Center remains a regular site for late-season matches and NCAA competition, as well as continuing to be an integral practice facility during both the fall and spring.

Since 1991, a total of 23 top-25 opponents

have left Notre Dame with a loss. The Irish knocked off five top-25 foes at home in 2007, including a 6-1 victory over eighth ranked Duke and a 5-2 triumph over eventual NCAA runnerup Illinois (also ranked eighth). Among the other huge home wins have been five upsets of top-15 foes, including a 4-3 decision against #9 Illinois in the Eck Tennis Pavilion in March of 2009.

Since opening, the Courtney Tennis Center has undergone a variety of improvements. Most recently, 14 of the courts were newly resurfaced during the summer of 2008 and the facility was reoriented in the winter of 2004 as construction began on the neighboring Guglielmino Fam-ily Athletics Center. That undertaking saw the construction of a new tournament center tower, while the seating was moved from the west to the east end, which now plays host to var-sity matches, making it more convenient for the teams headquartered in the Eck Tennis Pavilion. The reoriented Courtney Tennis Center, which features 14 courts, saw its first varsity men’s ac-tion at the 2004 Tom Fallon Invitational.

The home of Irish tennis for nearly 40 years, the construction of Courtney Tennis Center was financed entirely by prominent Washington, D.C., attorney Jeremiah Courtney. The numerous courts and brand-new laykold surface make it a popular spot for students and faculty, as well as the varsity tennis teams. Courtney is a 1932 graduate of Columbia University, where he cap-tained the tennis team. His two sons attended Notre Dame and played tennis under legendary coach Tom Fallon.

The first home of Irish tennis was the Notre Dame Fieldhouse, which played host to Irish home matches until the Courtney Tennis Cen-

The Courtney Tennis Center hosted the 1994 NCAA Championships and was also the site of the ‘71 championships, when then-freshman Jimmy Connors of UCLA defeated Stanford’s Roscoe Tanner for the national singles title

Eck Pavilion TennisSince its completion in June of 1987, Notre

Dame’s Eck Tennis Pavilion has been an inte-gral part of the success of Irish tennis, allowing the team to practice year-round, regardless of weather conditions, and providing an alterna-tive surface to further develop the all-around skills of Notre Dame’s players. Additionally, it has become an extremely-difficult place for op-ponents to be victorious and has attracted some of the top events in collegiate tennis.

In 20 years of action in the Eck Tennis Pa-vilion, the Irish have compiled a 159-46 record for a .776 winning percentage. Notre Dame has been unbeaten in the building four times (7-0 in 1992, 10-0 in 2002, 7-0 in 2006 and 9-0 in 2007), and has lost just once in a season on six other occasions. The Irish have posted a losing record in the Eck Tennis Pavilion in only one sea-son since its opening.

The combination of the Eck Tennis Pavilion and Courtney Tennis Center has allowed the Uni-versity of Notre Dame to play host to a number of prestigious events, including serving as the national site of the NCAA Championships. The event came to Notre Dame in 1994, and USC won its third national championship in four years by outlasting Stanford in the title match by a 4-3 score. Mark Merklein of the University of Florida won the singles championship, and Mississippi State’s Laurent Miquelard and Joc Simmons captured the doubles title, though the Notre Dame pair of former walk-ons Andy Zurcher and Todd Wilson reached the semifinals. It marked just the third different site to play host to the NCAA Championships since the current team format was established in 1977. The NCAA Women’s Tennis Championships came to Notre

Dame in 1998, making it the northernmost site ever to play host to that event.

In all, Notre Dame has been the site of NCAA action on 14 occasions, including every year from 1994-2002 for either men’s or women’s play. The Eck Tennis Pavilion has three times welcomed the Intercollegiate Tennis Asso-ciation’s Midwest Region Indoor Championships and six times helped play host to the Midwest-ern Collegiate Conference Championship. The facility has provided additional courts for the men’s Tom Fallon Invitational and has been the home of the women’s Eck Classic for 17 years.

Since 1991, a total of 23 top-25 opponents have left Notre Dame with a loss. Among Notre Dame’s huge home wins have been three upsets of top-15 foes, including a 4-3 decision against #8 Duke in the Eck Tennis Pavilion in 1997. On Jan. 29, 2005, the facility was the site for Notre Dame’s 1,000th all-time men’s tennis victory, a 5-2 upset of #18 North Carolina that allowed the Irish to join the Tar Heels in the elite group of then just seven schools with 1,000-plus all-time wins.

The summer of 2003 saw the Eck Pavilion newly renovated, as all six courts were resur-faced (changing them from red to green) and the color scheme was changed to blue and gold throughout the building. Among the other highlights were numerous pieces of new wood furniture, as well as additional trophy cases and other accessories. The facility features the offices for both the men’s and women’s tennis coaches, as well as locker rooms for both teams, and a spacious spectator viewing area upstairs that is ideally suited for videotaping.

“It is truly one of the great collegiate indoor tennis facilities in the country,” says Irish head coach Bob Bayliss.

In September 1988, the Eck Pavilion received the United States Tennis Association (USTA) Award for architectural design. As a result, the USTA presented the facility with a handsome wooden plaque, a large sign placed in front of the pavilion and a complimentary one-year membership in the USTA. The facility and its award are recognized in an inscription on a large mahogany board displayed in the lobby of the USTA National Tennis Center in Flushing Meadow, N.Y.

The facility was underwritten by Franklin E. Eck. He is chairman and chief executive officer of Advanced Drainage Systems, Inc., which produces corrugated plastic drainage pipe for agricultural and commercial purposes. A 1944 chemical engineering graduate of Notre Dame, Eck earned an M.B.A. from Harvard University in 1949. In 1984, he endowed a collection in Notre Dame’s Hesburgh Library. The generosity of Eck also made possible the addition of Notre Dame’s baseball facility, Frank Eck Stadium, and the Eck Visitor’s Center.

The Eck Tennis Pavilion is the third facility to play host to indoor Irish tennis action. The Notre Dame Fieldhouse, which was razed in 1983, was the first home of Notre Dame’s varsity team, and the Irish also sporadically used courts in the Joyce Center.

Five-time All-American David DiLucia plays in the Eck Tennis Pavilion in front of 1,100 fans against Stanford.

the top 35 in singles and top 30 in doubles.Among other recent players, 2002 graduate

Javier Taborga won three futures doubles titles, while his classmate, Casey Smith, and ‘01 grad Matt Daly had one each to their credit. Aaron Talarico (‘02) and Matthew Scott (‘04) both reached the semifinals in doubles in futures events, as well.

While in the midst of his first year on tour, Sheeva Parbhu (‘08) found himself matched up against another former Irish player, Barry King (‘07), in March of 2009. Parbhu defeated King 6-4, 7-6(7) to advance to the round of 16. King later found success as he advanced to the finals of a $15,000 ATP Futures tour event in June, marking his best finish as a professional. Stephen Bass (‘07) continues to improve his ATP ranking as he recently concluded his second year on tour.

Notre Dame players have a long history of going on to play professional tennis. Jim Evert, an All-American who reached the singles semi-finals of the NCAA Championship in 1943, was ranked as high as eighth in the United States as a professional, in 1952. His daughter, Chris, went on to be the world’s No. 1 player, winning 18 grand-slam singles titles.

Among other former Notre Dame players to play professionally were two from the 1960s. A first-team All-American as a member of the Irish, Bill Brown (’67) had some success profes-sionally upon graduation only to be followed into the pros by one of his teammates. Jasjit Singh, a 1968 graduate from India, remains the only Sikh to have played in all four professional grand-slam tournaments (Australian Open, French Open, Wimbledon, U.S. Open). In 1974, he was ranked 70th in the world by the Associa-

tion of Tennis Professionals (ATP).A total of 15 individuals who played under

Bob Bayliss have gone on to dabble in profes-sional careers. The most successful of that group was David DiLucia, a 1992 graduate who ap-peared in the singles main draw in each of the four grand slams. Ranked 92nd in the world in doubles in 1998, he went on to clinch the 2001 World Team Tennis title for the Philadelphia Freedoms and was the personal coach of Lind-say Davenport, the world’s #1 women’s player.

Six recent Irish graduates have been active in pro tennis. Ryan Sachire (’00) – now an assistant coach for the Irish – was the most successful, climbing to 180th in the world in doubles before retiring in 2005. During his pro career, he cap-tured 16 tournament titles (14 futures, two chal-lengers) in doubles and a pair in singles (both futures). Among American pros, Sachire was in
