NOTRE DAME Fighting Irish

Zach Stephens became the third individual All-American in Notre Dame men’s swimming and diving history at the 2013 NCAA Division I Swimming and Diving Championships after a 16th-place swim in the 200 breaststroke. The Notre Dame junior enters the season as the team record holder (1:55.21) in the event.

there last year. It’s important to see what the leaders are doing partly just to know what it is, but also to accept what it is so it’s not intimidating.

“If you look at our pool record board, there was a time when some of those pool records were set when our guys stood on the deck in awe. Now, we look at the same times, the same events, and say, ‘we can do that.’ Recognizing it is going to be tough, but being at peace with saying ‘I want that challenge and I am not afraid of it.’ That’s what those meets do for us.”

A strong summer of training for the Irish, which included six Notre Dame swimmers seeing action at the 2013 United States Open in Irvine, Calif., furthered the expo-sure of team members to the best competi-tion in the country at the highest level of the sport. Welsh said that the team picked up where it left off once classes resumed in late August, and has continued building for its official start to the season.

“We have been training hard and I am very encouraged by the results,” he said. “The spirit is good, the energy is good, and

One does not ascend to the greatest of heights in a given competition by pure coincidence. In the case of the University of Notre Dame men’s swimming and diving program, the motto, ‘To be the best, you have to beat the best,’ needs to be altered slightly to explain the team’s general phi-losophy.

The saying that fits the upcoming 2013-14 Notre Dame season would more accu-rately resemble, ‘To become the best, you have to compete against the best.’

The Irish will be tested early and often during their inaugural campaign as an At-lantic Coast Conference (ACC) member, and the program is ready to answer the call.

“Our schedule this year is real challeng-ing,” Notre Dame head coach Tim Welsh said. “We have just filled it with really fast teams, and the challenge to stay in the race with these teams all season long will be a big challenge for us. Notre Dame teams like to play the toughest schedules any way that they can, so we are trying to get with the program and compete against the toughest schedule we can find.”

Notre Dame qualified a program record nine swimmers for last season’s NCAA Divi-sion I Men’s Swimming and Diving Cham-pionships in Indianapolis, with a total of six Irish team members earning honorable mention All-America honors at the meet. The NCAA performance followed Notre Dame’s sixth and final BIG EAST Conference Championship victory, which saw the Irish score a meet-record 991 points on the way to repeating as the conference’s top squad after reclaiming the league hardware in 2012.

For Welsh, entering his 29th season as the mentor of the Notre Dame men’s pro-gram, seeing a high level of team prepa-ration throughout the summer months, combined with the perspective gained from last season’s postseason experiences, has set the stage for the new journeys that await the Irish.

“We will see teams like that (in the regular season) this year, and that’s a good thing,” Welsh said. “Michigan is the defend-ing men’s NCAA champion, and they don’t have all freshmen, there are guys who were

way through, but they already know how to get there.”

Tapping into the leadership of the four-member senior class and its own captain Patrick Murphy this season, while focusing on continuing to grow in and out of the pool, is the Notre Dame recipe for success for the standout junior contingent.

“We’re looking for them to mature be-cause in a lot of respects, junior year is a great year to mature,” Welsh said. “The real world isn’t necessarily coming in yet, and typically you have schoolwork under con-trol. We are expecting a lot of growth from the junior class.”

With a difficult and challenging schedule comes a new level of competitive intensity at the highest level of the sport. To endure the rigors of a long season, it is not at all uncommon for teams to taper, or gradu-ally reduce training levels, to stay fresh by championship time. With no “easy” meet on the 2013-14 schedule, Notre Dame plans to swim full speed ahead to reach its ultimate goals of an ACC Championship victory and setting a new scoring team benchmark at the NCAA Championships.

“The challenge is going to be to step up, and the focus on the season will remain achieving NCAA qualifying times, more

the outcome is good if you look at how fast we are going in our weekly test sets. If you look at our swimming and lifting workouts, they too have been challenging.”

Team leadership is so often the key to any successful collection of talent, and the Irish have that in seniors Colin Babcock, Joshua Choi, Frank Dyer and Bertie Nel. Babcock, entering his second term as a Notre Dame team captain after serving in the capacity last season, is just the sixth two-year captain in the program’s 56 sea-sons of existence.

“Frank has been our performance leader week in and week out, day in and day out since he’s been here,” Welsh said. “What’s exciting and comforting for Frank is that he’s not alone anymore. He’s not all by him-self, now he’s got a cluster of teammates around him.

“Colin is a two-year captain, Bertie is a senior with international experience that most of our team members don’t have, Josh is another in our long line of pre-med stu-dents, they have all been in the Rosenthal Leadership Academy. Their grade point av-erages are all over 3.0. This is a really solid senior class, it’s just not numerically large.”

Dyer became the first All-American swimmer in Notre Dame men’s swimming

history by way of a fourth place finish in the 200 freestyle at the 2012 NCAA Cham-pionships. He is the only Irish competitor in history with a pair of career All-America ci-tations after earning an honorable mention All-America scroll with the 16th place 800 freestyle relay squad at last season’s NCAA meet. Dyer was one of six Notre Dame swimmers to cop All-America status in 2013, with now juniors Zach Stephens (200 breast) and John Williamson (200 fly) join-ing the ranks of individual honorees.

The potential, both in terms of overall class size and the talent already on display, possessed by the Irish class of 2015 has Welsh patiently awaiting his team’s future.

“A year from now, we will have the larg-est senior class we have ever had in our history,” he said. “That class, it’s now time for them to step up and grow up, they’re upperclassmen now.

“If you look at their success, one of the things the previous performance through Frank did was to show all of us that the NCAA door was open, and that you can go there and score. Two members of the cur-rent junior class, Zach and John, did that last year, and a third one, Kevin Hughes, did so on a relay. Cameron Miller also qualified on his own last year. That class is feeling its

meet as a summation of the first semester and a preview of what our championship squad might be like later in the spring.”

Following the team’s annual winter training trek to the Copa Coqui Meet in Trujillo Alto, Puerto Rico during the first week of January, the Irish close their road dual meet slate with a pair of encounters at Northwestern (Jan. 11) and Louisville (Jan. 24) to open the second half of the season. The meet against the Cardinals, as Welsh noted, will provide another stepping stone for Notre Dame to overcome.

“It’s been a long time since we’ve beaten Louisville at Louisville, and this is a major meet for us,” Welsh said. “They will be in the ACC next year, so we will not face them at championship time this year. Given the rivalry between our two schools that prob-ably adds a little to the outcome of this meet. As most teams are, they are tough at home.”

than likely at the ACC Championships,” Welsh said. “The challenge we face, we compare it to climbing a mountain. The leader kicks his boots into the snow so others can step up. We have to kick some steps this year, but that doesn’t mean we are going to sacrifice preparation for the ACC or the NCAA Championships so that we are rested for an in-season dual meet. We are going to challenge ourselves to step up no matter what.”

Notre Dame opens the 2013-14 season on Oct. 11 with the 49th edition of the Dennis Stark Relays. In what has become the traditional first meet of each year for the Irish, a loaded field including Cleveland State, Valparaiso, national contender Au-burn and defending NCAA champion Michi-gan will make the trek to the Rolfs Aquatic Center. The following day (Oct. 12), Notre Dame will swim Michigan and Auburn in a tri-dual meet at the Rolfs Aquatic Center.

The team’s first road trip of the season will take the Irish to the United States Air Force Academy for the very first time. An Oct. 25 dual meet between Notre Dame and Air Force will culminate a unique train-ing experience for Welsh and his team.

“We will train at altitude for the first time, a week at altitude at the U.S. Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs, Colo., and finish off at an even higher altitude at the Air Force Academy,” Welsh said. “We haven’t trained for any extended length of time at altitude before, so we’re excited by the opportunity, a little nervous about what we will find. It will be a test for us, and that’s why we’re doing it.”

Notre Dame continues its four-meet road swing with stops at Purdue (Nov. 1) and Pittsburgh (Nov. 9) to open the month of November. Both meets will be key points on the Irish schedule as the team looks to improve upon past performances in West Lafayette, and competes in its first official ACC dual meet at Trees Pool against Pitts-burgh and Virginia Tech.

“If you look at our Purdue history, we usually compete pretty well when Purdue is here, but we’ve had a terrible time racing down there,” Welsh said. “That is a major mark on the schedule. They have a great facility, a great program and a great coach-

ing staff. There’s no reason why we can’t race well there other than we just have not been doing it.

“Pittsburgh and Virginia Tech are both strong teams, and if you look at last year’s results Virginia Tech was ahead of us. We did finish ahead of Pittsburgh at the BIG EAST meet, but a different year is a differ-ent year.”

A pair of home dual meets against Mich-igan State (Nov. 15) and Wisconsin (Nov. 16) will follow at the Rolfs Aquatic Center. A brief break in the competitive schedule over the Thanksgiving holiday sets the stage for the Iowa Hawkeye Invitational (Dec. 6-8), an event the Notre Dame team has highlighted as the key event of the first half of the season.

“This will be our focal meet for the fall,” Welsh said. “Iowa by themselves is pretty tough, and we will want to look at this

Fighting Irish SEASON PREVIEW

Top performers from the ACC Champion-ships will be in a position to qualify for the 2014 NCAA Championships March 27-29, hosted by the University of Texas, at the Jamail Texas Swimming Center in Austin. As in years past, all divers will have the opportunity to earn their way to the NCAA meet by qualifying through the NCAA Zone Diving Meet (March 13-15) at the McCorkle Aquatic Pavilion in Columbus, Ohio.

Using last season’s record-setting perfor-mance as it starting point, the Notre Dame swimming and diving program gained a taste for the level of competition on a national scale. By not being satisfied with past accomplishments and continuing to drive forward, Welsh believes that facing and conquering grander challenges will continue to shape the Irish into a regular national contender.

“Certainly we want to sit here in April and say we did return a large team to the NCAA Championships, we did score in indi-vidual events and advance relays, and we would love to get a diver there,” he said. “All of those things are well within the range of what’s possible if we keep our eyes on the prize every day. The guys all know what that ultimate prize is, and they all want to get there. It’s a very competitive group.”

Notre Dame’s annual Shamrock In-vitational (Jan. 31-Feb. 1) and a dual showdown with Cleveland State (Feb. 8) caps the Irish regular season, and will be the final lead-in to the program’s first ap-pearance at the ACC Championships. One unique element of the conference meet is the weeklong gap between the men’s and women’s championship competitions.

“It’s very interesting in the ACC that the men’s and women’s conference champion-ship meets are separate,” Welsh said. “We haven’t done that since our days pre-BIG EAST, possibly when we were between conferences and competed as an indepen-dent back in the 1980s. It will be a new ex-perience for us, and not the least bit being that our events now come up twice as fast. Diving will go with the women’s team (Feb. 19-22), and especially given the distance we will not be able to be with our divers when they compete at the ACC meet, but we will certainly follow them closely.”

The men’s swimmers will travel to the Greensboro Aquatic Center for the swim-ming portion of the ACC Championships on Feb. 26-March 1. A distinct level of parity within the conference itself is expected to create a competitive championship meet atmosphere.

“If you compare our times last year with ACC times as equal to see how they sort out, I think there were six teams within 20 points,” Welsh said. “You’ve got to swim it out. There have been a few coaching changes in the ACC, teams are close togeth-er. It’s going to be a really exciting time.”

Welsh acknowledged that there is a degree of pressure within the program to replicate, even expand upon the success that the team has enjoyed over the past 10 seasons. Six conference championships, 12 total NCAA Championship qualifiers and seven total All-America honors earned in that span have set the standard for Notre Dame, and the move to the ACC is just the next step up the aforementioned mountain for the Irish.

“Everybody on the team feels the in-tensity that came along with the move to the ACC,” Welsh said. “They are excited by it, nervous about it, but being nervous is a good thing. The last thing you want to be is complacent. We are not where we want to be as a program so being complacent will not help us. We need to be anxious and ag-gressive on the road ahead.”

The University of Notre Dame once again claimed the 2012 national championship for graduating its student-athletes in all sports -- in the process posting the top NCAA Graduation Success Rate (GSR) figure (99) for its student-athletes for the sixth straight year.

The GSR number for all Notre Dame student-athletes rated the Irish first among the 120 football-playing institutions in the NCAA Football Bowl Subdivision (formerly Division I-A). The 2012 NCAA figures are based on entering classes from 2002 through 2005.

Whether measured by the federal government in its Department of Education report or by the NCAA through its GSR numbers, graduation rates for Notre Dame student-athletes once again ranked either number one or among the handful of national leaders in five major categories among all major football-playing colleges and universities.

Notre Dame’s institutional research found that Irish student-athletes in 2012 ranked number one in five of 10 major categories -- ranking second in three others and third in another. That’s based on the NCAA-issued GSR and federal figures.

For the fourth year in a row Notre Dame led the nation in four GSR categories--for all student-athletes (at 99), male student-athletes (98), female student-athletes (100) and football student-athletes (97). Notre Dame also ranked number one in the federal numbers for male student-athletes (89).

In calculations that include all student-athletes in all sports, Notre Dame ranked first among the FBS schools in the GSR figures, which were initiated in 2005 by the NCAA. The University’s 99 percent GSR for all its student-athletes ranked just ahead of the 98 figure for Duke. Using the federal formula, Notre Dame graduated a four-year average of 91 percent of its student-athletes, just behind Stanford at 92.

In the GSR standings, the Irish led the way in four categories. In addition to its number-one ranking for all student-athletes (99), Notre Dame finished first among female student athletes at 100 (tied with Wake Forest), first among male student-athletes at 98 percent (ahead of Duke and Northwestern at 96), first among football players at 97 percent (tied with Northwestern), and second among black student-athletes at 98 percent (behind only Rice at 100).

Notre Dame graduated 94 percent of all women competing in varsity athletics to rank second among its peer institutions based on the federal calculations (behind Stanford at 96). Among men, Notre Dame’s 89 percent federal rate also was first, tied with Stanford. Notre Dame graduated 82 percent of its black student-athletes, ranking third based on the federal rate, and Irish football players graduated at an 83 percent rate, to rank sixth.

Nineteen of 22 athletics programs at Notre Dame compiled graduation rates of 100 percent, and none were below 91 percent, according to the eighth year of GSR measurements developed by the NCAA.

None of the 120 Football Bowl Subdivision (formerly NCAA Division I-A) programs in the country had a higher percentage of 100 GSR scores than did Notre Dame with its .863 number (19 of 22).

In addition, Notre Dame ranked second among all FBS institutions with nine perfect scores among 22 sports (.409) in the federal graduation rate analysis.

The University of Notre Dame ranked number one once again among all Football Bowl Subdivision institutions with 15 of its athletics programs receiving

Fighting Irish ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE2013 Academic Progress Rate public recognition awards.

Duke University also had 15 programs honored, tying Notre Dame for the top spot in the FBS subset.

Fifteen Irish teams posted multi-year APR scores in the top 10 percent of all squads in their respective sports. In their seventh year, the public recognition honors are part of the broad Division I academic reform effort. The awards are based on APR numbers that represent the combination of scores from the 2008-09, 2009-10, 2010-11 and 2011-12 academic years.

The 15 Notre Dame programs honored this year for multi-year achievement:

• Men’s Sports (11): baseball, basketball, cross country, fencing, golf, lacrosse, soccer, swimming and diving, tennis, indoor track and field, and outdoor track & field.

• Women’s Sports (4): cross country, golf, softball, and swimming and diving.

Notre Dame’s 15 recognized sports this year follow two consecutive years (2012 and 2011) that a program-best 17 Irish teams were honored with the award. The NCAA recognized 15 Notre Dame programs in 2010 after 14 programs were honored in 2009. Eleven Irish teams earned recognition each of the previous two years, in both 2007 and 2008.

The FBS institutions that ranked in the top 10 in 2013, in terms of programs honored:

1. (tie) Notre Dame, Duke 15; 3. Northwestern 14; 4. (tie) Boston College, Stanford 13; 6. (tie) Penn State, Vanderbilt 8; 8. Rice 7; 9. (tie) Texas, Illinois, Ohio State 6.

The APR provides a real-time look at a team’s academic success each semester by tracking the academic progress of each student-athlete. The APR includes both retention at an institution and academic eligibility in its calculation and provides a clear picture of the academic culture in each sport.

The effort is part of a public-recognition program the NCAA Division I Board of Directors approved in January 2006. Notre Dame has received public recognition awards each of the eight years of the program.

A total of 27 Notre Dame men’s swimming and diving student-athletes were tabbed as BIG EAST Conference Academic All-Stars at the end of the 2012-13 season. The Irish posted a team grade point average of 3.200 during the fall of 2012 and a 3.310 in the spring of 2013, which was the fourth-highest semester performance in program history. The

spring total was the 15th-best team GPA among all Division I teams.

Frank Dyer became the second College Swimming Coaches Association of America (CSCAA) Scholar All-America first team selection in Irish history in 2013, joining Bill Bass (2012). To be eligible for CSCAA Scholar All-America consideration, a student-athlete must achieve a semester GPA of 3.5 or higher and have qualified for and competed at their respective national championship. Dyer is the only Irish men’s swimmer to garner multiple career All-America citations after registering point scoring swims at each of the last two NCAA Championship meets.

Five other members of the Irish men’s squad, swimmers Colin Babcock, Broderick Kelley, Bertie Nel, and divers Michael Kreft and Ryan Koter were each tabbed honorable mention Scholar All-America. Each student-athlete achieved a GPA of 3.5 or higher during the semester, and posted an NCAA “B” time standard to be eligible for consideration. Koter, a 2013 Notre Dame graduate, finished his Irish career as a three-time CSCAA Scholar All-America honorable mention choice, while Babcock, Nel and Kreft have each received the award the past two seasons.

Notre Dame head coach Tim Welsh led the Irish to the team’s sixth BIG EAST Championship in 2013, earn-ing conference coach of the year honors for the sixth time. Welsh, the only Notre Dame head coach dur-ing its BIG EAST era, will guide the Irish through their inaugural ACC campaign in 2013-14.

Championships. The Fighting Irish went 6-4 during the dual meet portion of the schedule and received votes in the final CollegeSwimming.com Top 25 rankings.

Upon earning and invitation to the NCAA Championships, Dyer went on to compete at the national event in the 500 free, 200 free and 100 free. Dyer recorded the program’s highest finish at the NCAAs with a 26th-place showing in the 200 free.

After falling 4.5 points short of the BIG EAST title in 2006-07, Welsh revved up the engines and guided the Irish to championship runs in 2007-08 and 2008-09. One of the greatest races in Notre Dame history capped off the 2009 league meet behind the efforts of that season’s 400 free relay quartet: Danny Lutkus, Joshua Nosal, John Lytle and Andrew Hoffman. A seven-second underdog to the Louisville relay team heading into the final race of the meet, the foursome pulled off the upset in dramatic fashion to secure the program’s second consecutive league title. Twelve school records fell during that 2009 event.

Coming off a BIG EAST title in 2005, a lot of expectations were placed upon the 2005-06 team and they delivered with a second straight league championship. The Fighting Irish claimed three event titles at the conference meet and produced 13 all-BIG EAST performers en route to the 224.5-point victory over Pittsburgh and the rest of the 11-team field. A total of seven school records were set during the season. Michael Bulfin became just the third stu-dent-athlete in program history to qualify for the NCAA Swimming and Diving Championships and the second in as many seasons,

Already one of the most respected coaches in the nation, Tim Welsh has taken the Notre Dame men’s swimming and diving program to unprecedented levels and has it on the verge of becom-ing a national force as it enters the Atlantic Coast Conference in 2013.

Under his guidance, the Fighting Irish captured the program’s first BIG EAST title in 2005 and repeated the feat in 2006, 2008, 2009, 2012 and 2013. Notre Dame has sent competitors to the NCAA Swimming and Diving Championships in six of the past nine seasons, with Frank Dyer earning the program’s first All-America honor in 2012 and a record nine Irish swimmers competing at the 2013 NCAA meet.

Welsh is not unaccustomed to success, as student-athletes and teams under his care have exceeded expectations and broken barriers throughout his 36-year career as a head coach.

Welsh’s squads have experienced great team success over the years. In 1978 and 1979, he helped Johns Hopkins to back-to-back Division III national championships, while being named National Coach of the Year on the latter occasion. In all, Welsh has coached 33 teams that have claimed conference championships and 21 that have won nine or more dual meets in a season.

Since arriving at Notre Dame in 1985, Welsh has seen his teams post a 319-174 (.647) dual-meet record, while winning 22 league titles (Midwestern Collegiate - 15, BIG EAST - 6, North Star - 1) and taking second place on seven occasions (MCC - 2, BIG EAST - 5). His student-athletes also have been accomplished, earning 26 invitations to the NCAA Championships, gaining All-America hon-ors on 11 occasions and winning over 45 BIG EAST events.

With a victory over Penn State as part of the Shamrock Invitational on Jan. 28, 2006, Welsh surpassed Dennis Stark’s mark of 174 career dual-meet victories at Notre Dame. Stark, the only other head coach in Fighting Irish swimming and diving history, was at the helm of the program from 1958 until Welsh took over in 1985.

The most apparent reality of the Welsh era at Notre Dame is the almost every-day occurrence that breaking University records has become. In his tenure, Welsh has seen his student-athletes break the Notre Dame record in every event -- on both the men’s and women’s sides -- on multiple occasions. In all, more than 200 University records have been set under Welsh’s tutelage, with the bar continuing to be raised each season. The Irish established 12 marks during the 2004-05 and 2008-09 seasons alone and seven more in 2005-06, adding eight more in 2007-08, an additional 12 in 2011-12 and nine more in 2012-13. In the lists of the top 10 performers in each swimming event in Notre Dame men’s history, no names remain from the pre-Welsh era.

The Irish swimming and diving program entered a new era under Welsh, as well. In his first 17 years at Notre Dame, the men’s swimming and diving team had little access to scholarship aide. The Notre Dame Athletic Department decided in December 2002 to fully fund all of its varsity sports, giving the Irish a tool with which to compete with the best schools in the nation. Working with a fully funded program, Welsh has welcomed some of the program’s top freshman classes in recent years

Notre Dame finished in the top four at the BIG EAST Championships in 16 consecutive seasons, including six runner-up results (1999, 2000, 2004, 2007, 2010 and 2011). The Fighting Irish finally broke through and captured the program’s first BIG EAST title in 2005 by defeating Pittsburgh, the eight-time defending conference champion, by 275 points. Increased expectations were placed on the Irish in 2005-06 and the squad delivered with another BIG EAST title in dominating fashion, also accomplishing the feat in 2007-08, 2008-09, 2011-12 and most recently 2012-13.

Notre Dame closed out its final BIG EAST Championship appearance in 2013 by scoring a meet record 991 points on its way to a sixth and final league crown. Nine Irish swimmers, Frank Dyer, Chris Johnson, Bill Bass, Kevin Hughes, John McGinley, Zach Stephens, John Williamson, Cameron Miller and Bogac Ayhan all qualified for the NCAA Championships, a remarkable feat consider-ing in the first 54 years of the program, only five swimmers (mak-ing seven total appearances) has qualified for the NCAA meet.

It was also a historic march through the BIG EAST Championship meet in 2012 as Notre Dame earned 887 points, its most at the event since 2004-05, to claim its fifth league title. Frank Dyer won the 500 free and was runner-up in the 200 free, while Bill Bass took home titles in the 200 IM and the 100 fly. Diver Nick Nemetz swept both the 1 and 3-meter dives to insure the Irish victory.

Dyer’s strong performance in the 200 free was a sign of things to come, as his fourth-place finish at the NCAA Championships earned Notre Dame its first All-America honor

The Irish registered a banner campaign in 2010-11, as Notre Dame finished second at the BIG EAST Conference Championships. Even more, Frank Dyer became just the second Notre Dame swim-mer - and first freshman - to represent the Irish at the NCAA

Fighting Irish HEAD COACHThe Irish women’s coach from 1985-86 through 1994-95,

Welsh’s teams won MCC titles every year the Irish were in the con-ference, from 1987-95. His teams also claimed the Eastern Intercollegiate championship twice. The first title came in 1990 and the second in 1995, when the last women’s program Welsh coached finished with the best record in school history, 14-1. During his 10 years at the helm of the women’s program, Welsh sent 11 swimmers to the NCAA championships, including three-time All-American Tanya Williams. In that span, every Irish wom-en’s University record was broken.

Prior to coming to Notre Dame in 1985, Welsh spent eight years as the head men’s and women’s coach at Johns Hopkins in Baltimore, Md. The New York native led the men’s squad to a mark of 65-36, including two NCAA Division III national championships and eight Middle Atlantic Conference titles. The women’s team also was successful under Welsh, earning a Middle Atlantic Conference championship while achieving six seasons at .500 or better.

Welsh graduated magna cum laude from Providence College in 1966. He went on to earn his master’s degree at the University of Virginia in 1967. Welsh became the men’s assistant coach at Syracuse in 1974 after leaving Winthrop College (S.C.), where he had taught English. During his four years at Syracuse, Welsh contin-ued to teach English and designed and ran the training program before joining the Hopkins swimming program.

Welsh continued a career of world travel, as he took his team to Ireland during the winter of the 2004-05 season. Previously, he traveled to Bogota, Colombia, in the spring of 1985 as a clinician and instructor for Sports America Program of the U.S. State Department and took his Irish squad to Portugal in the summer of 1991. Welsh and the 1996-97 Irish ventured to Brazil over Christmas break for a nationally televised meet featuring interna-tional Olympic swimmers. From 2008 to the present, the Irish have trekked to Puerto Rico for the program’s annual winter training session.

Welsh was awarded the Richard E. Steadman Award by the College Swim Coaches Association in 1993. The award, given annu-ally to a swimming or diving coach in the high school, club or uni-versity ranks who, in the opinion of the International Swimming Hall of Fame, Inc., and the College Swim Coaches Association, has done the most to spread joy and happiness in swimming.

Notre Dame proudly bestowed its Presidential Achievement Award to Welsh in 2009, which recognizes a University employee who lives the University’s mission and is a role model exemplifying all of the school’s core values.

Welsh’s student-athletes have been traditionally strong in the classroom, as well as in the Rolfs Aquatic Center. Perennially on Collegiate Swimming Coaches Association of America (CSCAA) Scholar All-America list (which ranks teams according to grade-point average), the Irish claimed the top spot in the 1999 season and have been in the top 10 eight times since 1990. The program was honored in 2009 with the BIG EAST Team Excellence Award, which recognizes the highest collective grade-point averages in each conference sport. That year’s team finished with a 3.272 grade index. In 2012, Bill Bass became the first CSCAA Scholar All-American in program history, a feat the Frank Dyer also accom-plished in 2013.

In his 29th season as head coach at Notre Dame, Welsh ranks behind only track and field’s Joe Piane (39 seasons) as the longest-serving program leader at the University. He also was awarded an honorary monogram from Notre Dame’s National Monogram Club and has seen six of his swimmers garner the Byron V. Kanaley Award, the most prestigious honor an Irish student-athlete can achieve.

Welsh was honored for his special service to the American Swimming Coaches Association (ASCA) and the sport of swimming by receiving the ASCA’s distinguished Ousley Service Award in 2004. One of Welsh’s key developments is the ASCA Fellows Program - which is designed to professionally and thoroughly prepare the next generation of coaching leaders. In fact, Welsh was named president of the ASCA in September 2009 with the term

coming to a close in the fall of 2011.Welsh received the CSCAA’s Distinguished Service Award for

his 35 years of service in college coaching and was deemed the organization’s Division I men’s representative on its Board of Directors in 2009.

Swimming World Magazine highlighted Welsh along with school record-holder MacKenzie LeBlanc in a fall 2008 issue. The pair shared training tips and personal experiences in one of the sport’s most recognized publications.

Welsh also completed a two-year term as the president of the BIG EAST’s swim coaches group in 2013, prior to Notre Dame’s entry into the Atlantic Coast Conference.

A published writer and master motivator, Welsh and his wife, Jacqueline (who served as curator of education in the Notre Dame Snite Museum of Art prior to her retirement), are the parents of two sons. Tim, a 2002 Notre Dame graduate, participated in the University’s Alliance for Catholic Education (ACE) program before completing his English Ph.D. program at the University of Washington. John is a 2005 Notre Dame graduate.

following swimmer Tim Kegelman, who did so in 2005. Bulfin returned to the NCAAs in 2008 and scored Notre Dame’s first points ever at the national meet.

In the fall of 2004, Notre Dame appeared in the CSCAA dual meet rankings for the first time ever as the Irish debuted at No. 21. In 2005-06, the Irish climbed to No. 18 in the rankings, which was a program-best mark until the 2007-08 squad earned a No. 17 ranking.

The 2004-05 season also witnessed Notre Dame’s first NCAA Championships participant in the Welsh era, and just the second in the history of the program. Kegelman swam in the 100 fly, 200 fly and the 200 IM at the NCAA Swimming and Diving Championships in Minneapolis, Minn. The sophomore was also one of six Notre Dame swimmers to take home BIG EAST titles in 2004-05. For his team’s accomplishments, Welsh was named the BIG EAST Coach of the Year for the third time in six years.

A key factor behind the success of the Fighting Irish program during the 2004-05 season was senior Frank Krakowski. He left Notre Dame holding five University records, along with being a six-time all-BIG EAST performer. Krakowski was also tabbed as a CSCAA All-Academic swimmer

The 2003-04 campaign provided a glimpse of the bright future of Notre Dame men’s swimming and diving. The Irish faced their toughest schedule in school history and responded by setting eight school records. Notre Dame posted 584 points at the BIG EAST Championship to finish as conference runner-up. Among the highlights of that meet was the first-ever Irish 1-2 finish in the meet, as Jamie Lutkus and David Moisan topped the field in the 400 individual medley.

Notre Dame also posted runner-up finishes in the 1999 and 2000 BIG EAST Championships. The Irish delivered a school-record time in 1999 to win the final event of the meet, the 400 free relay, to edge Syracuse by one point for second place. Welsh was named the BIG EAST Coach of the Year, capping a season in which the Irish broke 16 of 19 University records.

Notre Dame reset eight varsity records in 1999-2000 in finish-ing second in the BIG EAST Championships once again.

Other highlights of Welsh’s tenure as men’s coach at Notre Dame are 10 seasons with 10 or more dual-meet victories, includ-ing a 12-1 mark in 1989-90, the best record in school history. The Irish also were 11-1 in 1997-98 and set the school record for wins in a season in both 1987-88 and 1990-91 with identical 13-3 marks.

Prior to joining the BIG EAST in 1995-96, Welsh’s Irish won six Midwestern Collegiate Conference championships in seven years (1986-92) and took six consecutive titles in the National Catholic Invitational (1989-94).

Perry-Eaton then qualified for the NCAA Championships, where she placed ninth in the 1-meter event and 20th on the 3-meter board to earn honorable mention All-America honors.

In 2001-02, Heather Mattingly became the first Irish diver to earn All-America honors, finishing eighth in the 3-meter competition at the NCAA Championships. Mattingly also earned honorable mention All-America honors on the 1-meter board, taking 12th. She was the first Notre Dame diver to qualify for the NCAAs in four consecutive years -- also earning honorable mention All-America in 2001 (13th in 3-meter) and 2000 (12th in 1-meter, 12th in 3-meter).

Before coming to Notre Dame, Caiming was the head diving coach for three years at the University of Toledo, earning Mid-American Conference diving coach-of-the-year laurels in each of his last two sea-sons. Prior to his stint with the Rockets, Caiming served as an assistant coach for the 1991-92 season at Pittsburgh.

Boasting a wealth of international experience on his resume, Caiming served as the 1980 Chinese Olympic diving coach. He also has served as a technical consultant for United States Diving since 1994 and has held clinics and presentations for the United States Diving national team.

The Chinese national team coach from 1977-90, Caiming coached Sun Shu-Wei, a gold medalist in the men’s platform competition at the 1992 Olympics in Barcelona, Spain, and Zhu Jin-Hong, who finished fourth in the women’s platform in Barcelona.

Caiming’s divers also have earned medals at the Asian Games, World Cup, World University Games and World Championships.

In 2009, he was an assistant coach for the United States at the World University Games in Belgrade, Serbia. The United States earned six medals at the event.

A competitive diver in his own right, Caiming won the springboard competition at the Asian Games in 1974 and earned first place in the platform and second in the springboard competition at the National Games of China in 1975.

Caiming is a 1985 graduate of the Beijing Institute of Physical Education and has won numerous national Chinese diving champion-ships.

Caiming and his wife, Ping Tong, have one son, Tong, who gradu-ated from Notre Dame in 2003 after a successful career as an Irish diver.

In more than 30 years as a diving coach, Caiming Xie has helped his protégés win BIG EAST titles, All-America honors and gold medals. A proven winner, Caiming’s experience and influence truly touch all corners of the globe.

He is entering his 19th season as head men’s and women’s diving coach at Notre Dame in 2013-14, the program’s first as a member of the Atlantic Coast Conference.

During his tenure at Notre Dame he has coached two All-Americans on the women’s side, as well as the top two men’s divers in school history including 2008 All-American Michael Bulfin.

Under Caiming’s guidance, sophomore Michael Kreft was named Co-BIG EAST Conference Diver of the Year at the 2013 league meet, in which Notre Dame scored a meet record 991 points and won its sixth and final championship as a conference member.

Caiming’s most recent piece of hardware was earned in 2012 when he was named BIG EAST Diving Coach of the Year for the ninth time overall.

The award was due in part to the terrific season of freshman Nick Nemetz. Nemetz won both the 1-meter and 3-meter diving titles at the BIG EAST Championships, and finished in 19th place at the NCAA Championships with a 3-meter score of 287.35 points.

Caiming’s 2011 BIG EAST award was earned behind the efforts of divers such as Nathan Geary, who rallied back from a fourth-place pre-liminary showing to earn the 3-meter diving title at the BIG EAST Championships. Geary totaled 321.25 points to start the day and ended with a brilliant 369.10 in the finals for his first league crown. One day after winning the 1-meter title, Eric Lex led the pack with a preliminary score of 359.00 off the high board. He dropped to fourth in the finals with a 338.10, but still managed to earn the honor of Most Outstanding Diver.

In fact, Lex celebrated his final home meet by becoming the first diver in Notre Dame history to crack the 400-point plateau in the 3-meter

event, as his score of 405.15 off the high board gave him a first-place finish and the school record.

The recent success of Notre Dame divers comes as no surprise for Caiming, who also helped coach the United States National Team at the 2011 World University Games.

In 2010, Caiming’s seventh BIG EAST Coach of the Year award came on the heels of Wes Villaflor making a clean sweep of the 1- and 3-meter titles at the league meet. Villaflor was named the championship’s Most Outstanding Diver.

Caiming was named the BIG EAST Men’s Diving Coach of the year for the third-straight season in 2007 after helping Bulfin capture two all-BIG EAST honors at the meet, while Sam Stoner earned one all-conference accolade. One season later, Bulfin would earn his second trip to the NCAAs, scoring Notre Dame’s first-ever points at the meet while earning the program’s first All-American accolade.

The Irish filled the podium at the 2009 BIG EAST Championships by claiming stake in four of the top six positions in both the 1- and 3-meter events.

The 2005-06 season was one of the finest for men’s diving at Notre Dame. Bulfin became just the second diver in program history to qualify for the NCAA Championships. Bulfin also earned all-BIG EAST honors off the 1-meter board, while his teammate Stoner garnered all-conference honors in the 3-meter competition. Both Bulfin and Stoner competed at the NCAA Zone C Diving Championships. Bulfin qualified for the NCAAs with his fourth-place showing off the 3-meter board at the Zone competi-tion. He would also finish ninth off the 1-meter board, while Stoner was 10th, after registering a 17th-place showing in the 3-meter. The success of his diver’s helped Caiming garner the BIG EAST Conference Men’s Diving Coach of the Year Award for the fourth time. He also collected the honor in 1999, 2004 and 2005.

In 2005, Stoner placed fifth at the BIG EAST Championships off both boards and would go on to finish 17th out of the 32-diver field at the NCAA Zone C Diving Championships. That marked the top finish for an Irish rookie in 1-meter action in the meet since Andy Maggio was 14th in 2000.

Caiming, the first full-time diving coach in Notre Dame history, recruited and developed three divers in the class of 2003. The group, which went undefeated in 2001-02, was a key to Notre Dame’s dual-meet fortunes over a four-year span, and all three left among the best eight divers in school history on the 1-meter board.

Maggio was the most dominant Irish men’s diver ever, holding three of the five University diving records. In 2002, he finished fourth at the NCAA Zone Diving Meet, missing by just six points Notre Dame’s first berth to the NCAA Men’s Championships in 27 years.

Joe Miller and Tong Xie, Caiming’s son, each delivered career-best performances in their final seasons, a sign of Caiming’s ability to help divers improve dramatically during their time with him.

Caiming also tutored 2001 graduate Herb Huesman throughout his career, which ended with him as the holder of three varsity records.

On the women’s side, Caiming was responsible for the development of Heather Mattingly and Meghan Perry-Eaton, the first two diving All-Americans in Notre Dame history.

The last several seasons have been the most successful in Irish women’s diving history, featuring nine BIG EAST titles, four All-America honors and four BIG EAST Championships Most Outstanding Diver awards.

In 2011, Jenny Chiang finished first off the 3-meter board to open the BIG EAST Championships. Chiang totaled 337.40 points in the final round to earn the title for the second time in as many seasons.

Natalie Stitt swept the 1- and 3-meter events at the 2009 BIG EAST Championships while earning the nod at the league’s top diver. Caiming, who was the league’s diving coach of the year in 2009, led Stitt to her first NCAA Championships appearance later that season.

In 2003-04, Perry-Eaton turned in the most impressive campaign ever by an Irish diver, as she was beaten just one time during the regular season before sweeping the springboard events at the BIG EAST Championships by more than 40 points each en route to being tabbed the meet’s top diver. Perry-Eaton then became the first Notre Dame diver ever to win a title at the NCAA Zone C Championships, taking first off the 1-meter board. At the NCAA Championships, she delivered the highest-

Fighting Irish ASSOCIATE HEAD COACH

Tallman was also instrumental in preparing and presenting a pro-posal to the NCAA to institute a new selection process for the Division I Swimming Championships. Thanks to Tallman’s efforts, the NCAA Championship Cabinet approved the new process, which took effect at the 2013 NCAA Championships.

Prior to his stint at Notre Dame, Tallman served as an assistant at the University of Maryland in 2000-01. He helped the Terrapins send a school-record number of women’s qualifiers to the NCAA Championships as Maryland peaked at 16th in the national rankings that season, its highest listing in school history.

Prior to his stop at Maryland, Tallman spent two years as the head swimming coach at Indiana University of Pennsylvania. While at IUP, he was selected as the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference Coach of the Year in 1999 after helping the women’s team to the PSAC title, ending Clarion University’s 23-year stranglehold on the championship. He also led the IUP women’s team to sixth- and seventh-place finishes at the NCAA Division II championships. In his two seasons at IUP, the women’s squad was 18-0 in dual meets.

Fifteen IUP swimmers achieved All-America honors under Tallman’s tutelage while 18 swimmers earned all-PSAC accolades and five student-athletes were named Academic All-Americans.

A 1997 graduate of The Catholic University of America, Tallman swam for four seasons and captured 11 titles at the Capital Athletic Conference Championships. He set school and conference records in the 100 and 200 breast, along with the 200 and 400 medley relays.

Originally from Lindenwold, N.J., Tallman has a number of Notre Dame connections. His father Dennis is a ‘73 graduate and his grandfa-ther, Edgar F. Bailey, played football for the Irish in the 1940s.

Tallman married the former Heather Grzeskowiak in the summer of 2006. The couple, along with daughter Hannah, and son, Martin, resides in Mishawaka, Ind.

Matt Tallman enters his 13th season at Notre Dame and his seventh as associate head coach. Tallman spent his first five campaigns serving as assistant coach for the Fighting Irish before assuming his associate posi-tion in July 2006.

Tallman joined the Irish staff in 2001, shortly after the Notre Dame Athletic Department announced that each of the University’s 26 varsity sports would receive full funding. With increased scholarship aide, he has made the Irish competitive with the top programs in the nation on the recruiting front by attracting some of the country’s top prep prospects.

His recruiting efforts have produced some of the top classes in the history of the program - including the 14th-best incoming class in 2009-10, 12th-best in 2010-11 and 25th-best in 2011-12, which in turn has made Notre Dame a factor on the national scene.

In addition to recruiting, Tallman assists head coach Tim Welsh in all facets of the Irish swimming and diving program, including on-deck coaching and teaching, training, supervising dryland workouts and day-to-day operations.

The efforts of Tallman have also paid dividends in the pool, as the Irish have broken 128 University records over the last 13 years. Tallman was named the 2013 College Swimming.com Rising Assistant Coach of the Year after being named an honorable mention finalist in 2012. He has mentored 60 total swimmers who won BIG EAST individual and relay championships and all 14 individual Irish record holders, including two-time All-American Frank Dyer and Bill Bass, the second and third all-time Notre Dame men’s swimming NCAA Championship qualifiers.

Dyer’s fourth-place finish in the 200 free at the 2012 NCAA Championships earned him the distinction of being the first men’s swim-ming All-American in school history.

Another of Tallman’s charges, 2005 NCAA Championship participant Tim Kegelman, was the first Notre Dame swimmer to make an appear-ance at the national meet, swimming the 100 fly, 200 fly and 200 IM.

Tallman helped guide the Irish to their first BIG EAST championship in 2005, and the Irish repeated as champions in 2006, 2008, 2009, 2012

and 2013. The stretch was the most successful in the history of Notre Dame swimming and diving.

Notre Dame closed out its final BIG EAST Championship appearance in 2013 by scoring a meet record 991 points on its way to a sixth and final league crown. Nine Irish swimmers, Frank Dyer, Chris Johnson, Bill Bass, Kevin Hughes, John McGinley, Zach Stephens, John Williamson, Cameron Miller and Bogac Ayhan all qualified for the NCAA Championships, a remarkable feat considering in the first 54 years of the program, only five swimmers (making seven total appearances) has qualified for the NCAA meet.

The 2012 Notre Dame squad set nine school records and sent two swimmers to the NCAA Championships for the first time in the same season. Nine of the team’s upperclassmen (sophomores and above) set personal-bests in at least one event during the campaign, with six ath-letes setting fastest marks in multiple strokes. The Irish won seven events at the 2012 BIG EAST Championships, scoring 887 points to edge Louisville for the conference’s top crown. The 887 points scored were the second-most for Notre Dame at the BIG EAST meet in program history (902.5 points-2005).

The 2008 BIG EAST champion Irish program set eight then-school records and peaked at No. 17 in the Collegiate Swimming Coaches Association of America (CSCAA) rankings.

In 2005-06, the Irish climbed to No. 18 in the rankings for what was then a program-best mark. Notre Dame appeared in the CSCAA dual meet rankings for the first time ever in the fall of 2004, debuting at No. 21.

The 2003-04 campaign featured the Irish posting their highest-ever point total in the BIG EAST Championships to that point (584) en route to their first runner-up result in four years. Among the high points of the meet was Notre Dame’s first-ever 1-2 finish at the conference meet, which took place in the 400 IM.

Fighting IrishATLANTIC COAST CONFERENCE

The TraditionConsistency. It is the mark of true excellence

in any endeavor.

However, in today’s intercollegiate athletics, competition has become so balanced and so competitive that it is virtually impossible to maintain a high level of consistency.

Yet the Atlantic Coast Conference has defied the odds. Now, in its 61st year of competition, the ACC has long enjoyed the reputation as one of the strongest and most competitive intercollegiate conferences in the nation. And that is not mere conjecture, the numbers support it.

Since the league’s inception in 1953, ACC schools have captured 131 NCAA championships, including 69 in women’s competition and 62 in men’s. In addition, NCAA individual titles have gone to ACC student-athletes 150 times in men’s competition and 106 times in women’s action. Given the ACC’s strong history and the strengthening of its ranks with the additions of Notre Dame, Pitt and Syracuse in 2013, followed by Louisville in 2014, those numbers – and the league’s longstanding tradition of excellence – appear destined to only grow greater in the years ahead.

2012-13 in ReviewThe 2012-13 academic year saw ACC teams

capture four more national team titles and seven individual NCAA crowns. In all, the ACC has won 62 national team titles over the last 16 years and has won two or more NCAA titles in 30 of the past 32 years. A total of 119 ACC teams placed in NCAA post-season competition in 2012-13. League teams compiled a 120-74-2 (.617) mark against non-league opponents in NCAA championship dual competition.

The ACC’s new membership further bolsters the league’s already-strong academic standing among NCAA Division I conferences. The ACC’s member institutions, effective July 1, 2013, rank first among BCS automatic qualifying conferences in the latest US News & World Report’s “Best Colleges” list. ACC schools averaged a ranking of 55.73 and were the only conference with eight schools ranked among the top 50 (five public, three private). The ACC is also the only conference with 11 schools ranked among the top 70.

The ChampionshipsThe conference will conduct championship

competition in 25 sports during the 2013-14 academic year--12 for men and 13 for women. The first ACC championship was held in swimming on February 25, 1954. The conference did not conduct championships in cross country, wrestling or tennis during the first year.

The 12 sports for men include football, cross country, soccer, basketball, swimming, indoor and outdoor track, wrestling, baseball, tennis, golf and lacrosse. Fencing, which was started in 1971, was discontinued in 1981. Women’s sports were initiated in 1977 with the first championship meet held in tennis at Wake Forest University.

Championships for women are currently conducted in cross country, field hockey, soccer, basketball, swimming, indoor and outdoor track, tennis, golf, lacrosse, softball and rowing with volleyball deciding its champion by regular season play.

A HistoryThe Atlantic Coast Conference was founded

on May 8, 1953, at the Sedgefield Inn near Greensboro, N.C., with seven charter members - Clemson, Duke, Maryland, North Carolina, North Carolina State, South Carolina and Wake Forest - drawing up the conference by-laws.

The withdrawal of seven schools from the Southern Conference came early on the morning of May 8, 1953, during the Southern Conference’s annual spring meeting. On June 14, 1953, the seven members met in Raleigh, N.C., where a set of bylaws was adopted and the name became officially the Atlantic Coast Conference.

Suggestions from fans for the name of the new conference appeared in the region’s newspapers prior to the meeting in Raleigh. Some of the names suggested were: Dixie, Mid-South, Mid-Atlantic, East Coast, Seaboard, Colonial, Tobacco, Blue-Gray, Piedmont, Southern Seven and the Shoreline.

Duke’s Eddie Cameron recommended that the name of the conference be the Atlantic Coast Conference, and the motion was passed unanimously. The meeting concluded with each member institution assessed $200.00 to pay for conference expenses.

On December 4, 1953, conference officials met again at Sedgefield and officially admitted the University of Virginia as the league’s eighth member. The first withdrawal of a school from the ACC came on June 30, 1971, when the University of South Carolina tendered its resignation. The ACC operated with seven members until April 3, 1978, when the Georgia Institute of Technology was admitted. The Atlanta school had withdrawn from the Southeastern Conference in January of 1964.

The ACC expanded to nine members on July 1, 1991, with the addition of Florida State University.

The conference expanded to 11 members on July 1, 2004, with the addition of the University of Miami and Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University. On October 17, 2003, Boston College accepted an invitation to become the league’s 12th member starting July 1, 2005.

The ACC added its 13th and 14th members on Sept. 18, 2011, when Pittsburgh and Syracuse accepted invitations to join the conference. The two schools officially join the ACC on July 1, 2013. Notre Dame also officially joined the ACC on July 1, 2013, after announcing on Sept. 12, 2012 its intention to enter the league for competition in all sports but football, bringing the membership of the conference to 15. The Fighting Irish will play five football games with ACC schools each year. On July 1, 2014, Louisville will enter the ACC from the Big East Conference. The ACC will remain a 15-member conference, as Maryland plans to join the Big Ten.

Notre Dame at the BIG EAST ChampionshipAfter competing for 25 years as an independent,

Notre Dame joined the Midwestern Collegiate Conference in 1983-84, beginning a 12-year membership in which the Irish would win six league championships (1986 and 1988-92) and finish as the MCC runner-up four times (1984-85 and 1993-94). Notre Dame joined the BIG EAST Conference prior to the 1995-96 season and was a member through the 2012-13 season.

The Irish registered 15 consecutive top-four finishes in the BIG EAST Championships, including six victories (2005, 2006, 2008, 2009, 2012, 2013) and six runner-up results.

In its final year in the conference in 2013, Notre Dame finished with 991 points, 139.5 points above second place finisher Louisville (851.5). The total team score vastly ex-ceeded the previous meet high of 917 points, set by Louisville in 2011. Notre Dame completed the meet with a staggering 16 athletes garnering 43 All-BIG EAST honors in 17 different events.

Notre Dame won 46 event titles at the BIG EAST meet, with five of those occurring at the 2005 championships and four more in 2006. Tim Kegelman became the first Irish swimmer to win three BIG EAST titles. Kegelman collected all three titles at the 2005 meet by winning the 100 fly, 200 IM was part of the champion 400 Medley Relay. Ray Fitzpatrick (who was first in the 200 free in 2000 after anchoring the champion 400 free relay in 1999) was the first Irish student-athlete to win multiple BIG EAST championships. In 2006, Jay Vanden Berg became the second competitor in program history to capture multiple titles in the same meet as he won both the 500 and 1,650 free events, adding the 1,650 free title in 2005. John Lytle joined the elite company by earning three first-place finishes at the 2009 meet (800 free relay, 400 free relay, 200 free). Two-time All-American Frank Dyer earned three gold medals (50 free, 500 free and 200 medley relay) in 2013 to tie a program record with five for his career.

The top three event finishers gained all-BIG EAST hon-ors, and over 50 Notre Dame competitors have achieved that status. Lytle led the Irish with 22 all-conference honors.

Bulfin (2006, 2008) and Bob Ebel (1975) as Irish representatives at the national meet.

Dyer, a native of Loudonville, N.Y., is the only three-time NCAA Championship qualifier in Notre Dame history. Dyer became the first freshman to appear at the national meet in 2011, logging a top finish of 26th place in the 200 freestyle. He touched the wall in 1:34.00 for fourth place in the event the following of the year, earning the first All-America honor in school history. Dyer, along with Bass, Hughes and McGinley, claimed honorable mention All-America citations in 2013 after posting a 6:25.32 in the 800 freestyle relay.

Bulfin, from Ft. Lauderdale, Fla., became the first member of the Irish program to earn multiple trips to the NCAA Championships when he made his second trip in 2008. Bulfin added another feather to his cap by becoming the program’s first honorable mention All-American. He notched a pair of points in the final round of the 3-meter competition to secure a top-20 finish at the 2008 NCAAs. Bulfin finished 28th in the 1-meter with a count of 264.25 during the preliminary rounds. He followed that with a stellar 319.55 and a 16th-place finish in the 3-meter event during the prelims to move into the final heat. It was there that he moved up one spot to 15th with a score of 332.40 in the final round of the 3-meter to earn the first points for Notre Dame at the NCAAs in program history.

Ebel, a native of St. Louis, Mo., did so in 3-meter diving event as a sophomore in 1975. He qualified with a record-breaking performance in a dual meet against Illinois State on Feb. 22 in the Rockne Memorial Pool. Ebel’s score of 302.65 stood as the school record for nearly 15 years.

Kegelman competed at the 2005 NCAA Championships after earning his berth with a season-best time of 47.66 in the 100 Fly. He also swam in the 200 Individual Medley and the 100 Fly at the national meet.

Notre Dame swimmers have taken part in other major national and international meets over the several years. MacKenzie LeBlanc took the gold in the 200-meter butterfly at the Tri Nations Cup meet in Quebec City. The Vernon, B.C., native topped the podium after checking in with a time of 2:00.13. LeBlanc won one of Canada’s six gold medals to open the two-day meet which featured the top prospects expected to challenge for spots on the 2012 Olympic teams for Canada, France and Great Britain. The Tri Nations Cup is a dual meet between Canada, France and Great Britain. Hosted in Quebec City, this inaugural competition showcased Canada’s 2012 Olympic potential hopefuls.

Andrew MacKay’s was the first Irish swimmer to take part in the Olympics, hitting the warter in the 2004 Olympic Games in Athens, Greece. MacKay, the first native of the Cayman Islands ever to qualify for the Olympics in swimming, took part in both the 200- and 400-meter individual medleys and broke his own national records in both events. In the 400-meter event, it took him just 0.59 seconds to get off the starting blocks at the commencement of the race, and that reaction time was the fastest of any non-backstroker (male or female) during the entire Athens Olympics. He moved up from his seeding in both races to finish 33rd in the 400 IM and 41st in the 200-meter version.

While MacKay is Notre Dame’s first men’s swimming Olympian, various other Irish student-athletes have taken part in high-profile national and international meets. Dan Szilier, a 2000 graduate, was the most accomplished of that group, as he finished ninth in the 200-meter breaststroke in the 1999 World University Games in Palma de Mallorca, Spain. Szilier qualified

A total of 12 Notre Dame student-athletes have nade a total of 16 all-time appearances at the NCAA Men’s Swimming and Diving Championships. In 2013, a record nine Irish swimmers, including Christopher Johnson, John McGinley, Zachary Stephens, John Williamson, Kevin Hughes, Cameron Miller and Bogac Ayhan, along with previous qualifiers Frank Dyer and Bill Bass, were a part of the NCAA field. The 2013 Notre Dame NCAA participants joined Tim Kegelman (2005) and divers Michael

for that team by taking seventh at the 1998 USA Swimming Summer National Championships. In 1997, Szilier was tabbed Rookie of the Meet at the USA Swimming Spring National Championships, ending up third in the 200 breast and eighth in the 100 breast.

The 2000 U.S. Olympic Trials featured three Notre Dame swimmers: Szilier, Jonathan Pierce (1,500 free), and Ryan Verlin (200 fly). Szilier led the Irish contingent by finishing 29th in the 200 breast.

monogram athletes who have been most exemplary as both 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.Eight members of the Notre Dame men’s swimming and diving team have received the award, including five since 2000.

Fighting Irish ROLFS AQUATIC CENTERThe Irish swimming and diving teams

compete in the state-of-the-art Rolfs Aquatic Center. After 27 years of intercol-legiate swimming competition in the Rockne Memorial Pool, the Notre Dame swimming and diving programs entered a new era in 1985, as they moved to the $4.5-million natatorium located in the Joyce Center.

Donated by brothers Thomas and Robert Rolf of West Bend, Wis., the Rolfs Aquatic Center provides Notre Dame with a modern, innovative facility on par with any other in the country. Ellerbe Architects and Engineers of Bloomington, Minn., the architects used in the planning of the Joyce Center, also were commissioned to design the 45,000-square-foot facility which houses a 50-meter Olympic pool (25 yards in width), spectator seating for 400 and support facilities.

The facility features a cutting edge video and replay board, two movable bulk-heads to allow sections of the pool to be blocked off allowing swimming competi-tion and warm-up swimming to occur simultaneously. The design also allows recreational swimming, water polo, instructional swimming and other aquatic activities. Diving is accommodated with two one-meter boards and two three-meter boards.

Support functions housed in the center of the facility just below the spectator seating include men’s and women’s locker rooms, men’s and women’s varsity locker rooms, and men’s and women’s staff locker rooms. Offices for the Notre Dame swim-ming staff, aquatics directors, and life-guards are deckside and glass-fronted with a view of the pool.

Several deckside instructional areas are located around the pool and feature infra-red heat lamps, designed to keep wet swimmers warm between events. The pool features a stainless steel racing gutter which is designed to absorb the bow waves of a swimmer, allowing faster swimming times.

Another instructional feature is the two underwater windows which allow critiqu-ing of a diver’s or swimmer’s underwater technique. The unique structural system consists of three trusses which span 120 feet, with the roof suspended below the trusses. In addition, the white exterior trusses provide an interesting and athletic character to the building. The lighting sys-tem is designed to be adjusted from maxi-mum brightness for television to nearly dark for dramatic synchronized swimming presentations.

The center was officially dedicated on November 13, 1985.

Rolfs Aquatic Center is home to Notre Dame’s men’s and women’s swimming and diving teams. The pool has two moveable bulkheads that allow the Irish the opportunity to train on either a long or short course.

Equipment necessary for the latest training techniques, including a trampoline and underwater viewing decks, are located in the Rolfs Aquatic Center.
