Season Preview

“Bill, as Frank is, is a wonderful human being,” Welsh says. “You just love knowing both of these guys and knowing that good guys succeed on the highest level. Bill had shoulder surgery two years ago, and to come off surgery and have lifetime bests and be at the NCAA Championship meet is a real tribute to his focus and his competitiveness. He’s had to train differently as a result, but he’s used it to propel himself into the na-tional picture.”

Head diving coach Caiming Xie, the reigning BIG EAST Diving Coach of the Year, welcomes back his top performer from last year in sopho-more Nick Nemetz. Nemetz swept the 2012 BIG EAST Championships in both the 1 and 3-meters dives to win BIG EAST Diver of the Year honors.

“Obviously, Nick has big upside, and he leads a group of six,” Welsh says. “We’re always looking for our

The Notre Dame men’s swimming and diving team enjoyed a historic season in 2012. The program won its fifth BIG EAST Conference Cham-pionship, swept the conference honors for top swimmer, diver and coaching staff and sent two athletes to compete at the NCAA Champion-ship meet.

Thanks to a fourth-place finish in the 200 free at the 2012 NCAA Championships, Frank Dyer became the first male swimmer in Notre Dame history to be named an All-American.

With last season’s successes now in the past, Notre Dame has set its sights on defending its champion-ship in 2012-13 with a strong core of athletes back in the fold.

“We are excited about that, but in order to go faster this year, we know we have to work harder,” head coach Tim Welsh says. “It’s reassuring to have a core group of guys that have done the work before, raced in the meets before and have performed when called upon. Our leadership group is excellent, and I think if you know you have a bunch of great leaders, you say, ‘just get in line’ to the rest of the team.”

Entering his junior season, Dyer will be one of the leaders Welsh looks to as a guide for the program’s younger competitors. Welsh admits that it is hard to overestimate the significance that Dyer’s All-America season will have on the Fighting Irish swimming program as a whole.

“For years we have been knock-ing on this door, we have been very close,” Welsh says. “To have that door finally opened, it really clears a pathway for us to tell everyone to go for it.

“For Frank himself, he is a won-derful model for us to be our first All-American. He works hard, he’s very focused on improving and he’s very supportive of the program. It is great to have someone achieve at that level that has improved a lot while here at Notre Dame.”

Almost as important to Welsh, the reigning BIG EAST Swimming Coach of the Year, is his athletes achieving success outside the pool. Senior Bill Bass, who was named the 2012 BIG EAST Championships Most Out-standing Swimmer, also became just the third Notre Dame men’s swim-mer ever to be named an Academic All-American.

Notre Dame closes the regular sea-son at the Northwestern Invitational Feb. 1-2.

“We have a very ambitious sched-ule, a very challenging home meet schedule and some difficult and challenging away meets as well,” Welsh says. “We like the freshness (of new meets), but some of these traditional meets are a good yard-stick to measure us. Some of the tra-ditional meets also have intensity, a meaning, a history to them, so when you walk into the meet it means something. We like having that.”

The 2013 BIG EAST Swimming and Diving Championships will be held Feb. 27-March 2 in Indianapolis, Ind. The NCAA Zone Diving Meet will fol-low March 14-16 in West Lafayette, Ind., with the NCAA Championships set for March 28-30 in Indianapolis.

“We have been knocking on the NCAA door for several years, and now that the door has opened we have got a group of guys we think can go through it,” Welsh says. “Se-niors can go through, juniors can go through it, sophomores and fresh-men. We think that in every class people can get through that door.

“One of the greatest things about our program has always been its depth. As the competition level rises, depth, when it becomes na-tional-level depth, becomes very powerful.”

divers to improve, but also to ad-vance through the NCAA Zone Meet.”

Notre Dame expects to send more athletes to this year’s NCAA Champi-onships due to a change in the selec-tion process, a reform that was pre-sented to the NCAA by Fighting Irish associate head coach Matt Tallman.

“There will be a different way of selections for the NCAA Champion-ships beginning this year, and Matt wrote the outline for this process, championed it through to its suc-cess,” Welsh says. “It will allow more individuals to be selected to the meet, and relays will be made up of the individuals who are there. We hope that means we will have a larger group at the NCAA Champion-ships.”

As athletes enter and subsequent-ly exit the Notre Dame program when their careers end, one theme preached by Welsh and his coaching staff remains constant, improve-ment. For all the success and ac-

colades both he and his team have received during his tenure, Welsh says that at the end of the day, per-formance is measured based on do-ing what it takes to improve for the good of the program.

“And it doesn’t get any easier, it gets harder,” he says. “We have to be willing to make that commit-ment, both as coaches and athletes. As coaches, we have to look for new challenges so that we can keep growing.”

The Fighting Irish open the 2012-13 season by hosting the 48th Den-nis Stark Relays Oct. 12 at the Rolfs Aquatic Center.

The first dual meet of the season will take place Oct. 26 when Notre Dame travels to Oakland. A trip the following day (Oct. 27) to Michigan State will wrap up the brief two-meet road swing.

Notre Dame will open its home dual meet slate Nov. 2 when Purdue visits the Rolfs Aquatic Center. The Fighting Irish then remain in their home pool for dual showdowns with Pittsburgh (Nov. 9) and Louisville (Nov. 10).

The first half of the schedule closes with the Iowa Hawkeye Invitational Nov. 30-Dec. 2.

Nearly one month after the Hawk-eye Invitational, the Fighting Irish travel to San Juan, Puerto Rico for its annual winter training trip, ten-tatively set for Jan. 6. A dual meet at Cleveland State (Jan. 18) sets the stage for the Shamrock Invitational Jan. 25 and 26 at the Rolfs Aquatic Center.

Notre Dame head coach Tim Welsh won his fifth BIG EAST Championship in 2012, the 32nd overall conference championship of his illustrious career. Welsh also earned his fifth BIG EAST Coach of the Year award last season, guiding Frank Dyer to the first men’s swimming All-America honor in program history.

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 cham-pionship 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 student-athlete in program history to qualify for the NCAA Swimming and Diving Championships and the second in as many seasons, 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

Already one of the most respected coaches in the nation, Tim Welsh has taken the Notre Dame men’s swimming and div-ing program to unprecedented levels and has it on the verge of becoming a national force. Under his guidance, the Fighting Irish captured the program’s first BIG EAST title in 2005 and repeated the feat in 2006, 2008, 2009 and 2012. Notre Dame has sent competitors to the NCAA Swimming and Diving Championships in five of the past eight seasons, with Frank Dyer earning the program’s first All-America honor in 2012.

Welsh is not unaccustomed to success, as student-athletes and teams under his care have exceeded expectations and bro-ken barriers throughout his 35-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 32 teams that have claimed conference champion-ships 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 311-174 (.641) dual-meet record, while winning 21 league titles (Midwestern Collegiate - 15, BIG EAST - 5, North Star - 1) and taking second place on seven occasions (MCC - 2, BIG EAST - 5). His student-athletes also have been accomplished, earning 17 invitations to the NCAA Championships, gaining All-America honors on five occasions and winning 35 BIG EAST events.

With a victory over St. Bonaventure on Jan. 29, 2005, Welsh surpassed Dennis Stark’s mark of 167 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 and an additional 12 in 2011-12. 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 has finished in the top four at the BIG EAST Championships in 15 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, and most recently 2011-12.

It was 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 swimmer – and first freshman – to represent the Irish at the NCAA 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

sent 11 swimmers to the NCAA championships, including three-time All-American Tanya Williams. In that span, every Irish women’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 champi-onships and eight Middle Atlantic Conference titles. The wom-en’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 continued to teach English and designed and ran the training program before joining the Hopkins swimming pro-gram.

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 fea-turing international Olympic swimmers. From 2008 to the pres-ent, 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 annually to a swimming or diving coach in the high school, club or university 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. Last season, Bill Bass joined Ted Brown (2007) as the only CSCAA Scholar All-American in program history.

In his 28th season as head coach at Notre Dame, Welsh ranks behind only track and field’s Joe Piane (38 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 swim-ming 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 currently serves as the president of the BIG EAST’s coaches group, a two-year term which began in 2011.

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, partici-pated 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.

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 pro-gram 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 finishing 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, including a 12-1 mark in 1989-90, the best record in school his-tory. 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).

The Irish women’s coach from 1985-86 through 1994-95, Welsh’s teams won MCC titles every year the Irish were in the conference, 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

Championships, she delivered the highest-ever finish for a Notre Dame swimmer or diver, taking third in that event, ending up just 3.30 points behind the national champion and securing All-America honors. She followed that up with two more conference titles (for a BIG EAST record five in her career), her third conference diver-of-the-year award, and two more All-American honors.

In 2002-03, Perry-Eaton became the first Notre Dame diver -- and first non-University of Miami diver since 1996 -- to win a conference championship, placing first in the 1-meter competition. She also was second on the 3-meter board and was named the BIG EAST’s top diver. 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 competi-tion 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 seasons. 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 com-petition 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 competi-tion 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 champi-onships.

Caiming and his wife, Ping Tong, have one son, Tong, who graduated 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 18th season as head men’s and women’s diving coach at Notre Dame in 2012-13.

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.

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 preliminary 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 cap-ture 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 acco-lade.

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 his-tory 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 competition. 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 his-tory, 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, hold-ing 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 through-out his career, which ended with him as the holder of three varsity records.

On the women’s side, Caiming was responsible for the devel-opment 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 cam-paign 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

tory.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 acco-lades 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 Camden, N.J., Tallman has a number of Notre Dame connections. His father Dennis is a ’73 graduate and his grandfather, 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 12th 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 position 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 incom-ing class in 2009-10 and 12th-best in 2010-11, 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 110 University records over the last 11 years. He has mentored 50 BIG EAST champions and all 14 indi-vidual Irish record holders, including 2012 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 swimming 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 appearance 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 have repeated as champi-ons in 2006, 2008, 2009 and 2012. The stretch is the most suc-cessful in the history of Notre Dame swimming and diving.

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 athletes 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 sec-ond-most for Notre Dame at the BIG EAST meet in program his-tory (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.

Tallman was also instrumental in preparing and presenting a proposal 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 will take 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 his-

Notre Dame has enjoyed great success at the BIG EAST Championship meet since joining the league in the 1990s.


BIG EAST ChampionshipsNotre Dame in the BIG EAST Championships

After 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 has been a member since then.

The Irish have registered 14 consecutive top-four fin-ishes in the BIG EAST Championships, including six runner-up results (1999-2000, 2004, 2007, 2010, 2011).

In 2005, Notre Dame registered a meet-record 902.5 points to capture the program’s first-ever BIG EAST title. The Fighting Irish defeated Pittsburgh, the eight-time defending conference champions, by 275 points. Notre Dame defended its title in 2006 by registering 809 points to top runner-up Pittsburgh and the rest of the field. The Irish were edged out by West Virginia (765.5-761) in their bid for a third consecu-tive title in 2007 but bounced back with the crown in 2008, 2009 and 2012.

Notre Dame has won 39 event titles at the BIG EAST meet, with five of those occurring at the 2005 champion-ships 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 champion-ships. In 2006, Jay Vanden Berg became the second competi-tor in program history to capture multiple titles in the same meet as he won both the 500 and 1,650 free events. Vanden Berg also won the 1,650 free in 2005 and is tied with Kegel-man for the program record of three event titles. John Lytle joined the elite company by earning three first-place finishes at the 2009 meet (800 free relay, 400 free relay, 200 free).

The top three finishers in every event gain all-BIG EAST honors, and over 45 Notre Dame competitors have achieved that status. Lytle leads the Irish with 16 all-conference honors.

The BIG EAST ConferenceThe 2012-13 academic year is the 34th in the his-

tory of The BIG EAST Conference as the unique consor-tium marches on competing at the highest level with integrity and sportsmanship.

The BIG EAST has gone through membership changes since its birth and continues to make strides in improving the quality and depth of the storied league.

The BIG EAST Conference has been always been driven by lofty goals. The outstanding performances of the student-athletes at BIG EAST schools are evi-dence 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 2011-12 year was no different.

In the athletic arena, BIG EAST student-athletes again enjoyed success on the national stage. The Georgetown women’s cross country team captured its first NCAA Championship. The win by the Hoyas marked the third-straight year a BIG EAST team has won the women’s cross country championship, with Villanova winning the past two. The Louisville men’s basketball team advanced to the Final Four in New Orleans. Connecticut field hockey reached the NCAA semifinals, as did the Notre Dame men’s lacrosse team. The Irish women’s basketball team and Syracuse women’s lacrosse team each reached the NCAA finals. USF softball reached the Women’s College World Series in Oklahoma City, Okla., for the first time in program history.

The BIG EAST placed two teams in the NCAA Women’s Final Four for the third time in the last four years as Connecticut joined Notre Dame in Denver, with the Fighting Irish advancing to the national title game for the second-straight year.

BIG EAST student-athletes won five NCAA champi-onships. Sheila Reid won her second-straight NCAA Women’s Cross Country title. Syracuse hurdler Jarret Eaton won the 60-meter hurdle championship in the NCAA Indoor Track and Field Championship. Notre Dame won the distance medley relay at the same championship. Georgetown’s Emily Infeld won the 3,000-meter run. Carlos Almeida of Louisville won the 200-yard breaststroke at the NCAA Swimming & Diving Championships.

BIG EAST football maintained its national profile as a competitively balanced group. Three BIG EAST teams won bowl games, while the BIG EAST repre-sentative in the Bowl Championship Series won its bowl game for the fourth time in the last seven years- a streak that includes wins against the ACC, Big 12 and SEC champions.

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 18 of the nation’s top 50 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 more than one-fourth of all television households in the U.S. The BIG EAST will welcome UCF, Houston, Memphis, SMU and Temple in all sports in 2013-14. Temple football will join the league in 2012, with Boise State and San Diego State joining the following year and Navy in 2015.

Since opening its doors in 1979, the league has won 32 national championships in six different sports and 137 student-athletes have won individual national titles through 2011-12.

BIG EAST basketball squads have captured 11 titles in the last 13 years. 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. The BIG EAST placed three men’s basketball teams in the Final Four in 1985, the only time this has occurred in NCAA history.

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 ath-letics and academics.

Any successful organization has had the good for-tune 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 adminis-tered the formation of The BIG EAST Football Conference. John Marinatto was the third commis-sioner of the BIG EAST, serving from 2009-2012, after seven years as the conference’s senior associate com-missioner.

The league has long been considered a leader in innovative concepts in promotion and publicity, par-ticularly 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 sell-outs at campus and major public arenas, including the annual men’s BIG EAST Championship in Madison Square Garden. The women’s basketball champion-ship has led all conferences in attendance for the past nine 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.

qualified for the Canadian team as a result of his third-place finish at the Canadian Olympic Trials in Montreal in April 2008.

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.

MacKay also competed in the 2004 World Championships in Indianapolis, Ind., swimming the 100-meter IM.

While MacKay is Notre Dame’s first men’s s w i m m i n g 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 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.

James Scott-Browne, a distance freestyler who swam for the Irish from 1997-99, also had a taste of international experience. He was a member of USA Swimming’s national junior team, which took part in a variety of meets abroad. Additionally, Scott-Browne participated in the 1997 World Scholar-Athlete Games.

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.

Countless other Notre Dame competitors have participated in the USA Swimming senior national meets.

Divers Bob Ebel and Michael Bulfin along with swimmers Tim Kegelman, Bill Bass and Frank Dyer are the only Notre Dame student-athletes ever to take part in the NCAA Men’s Swimming and Diving Championships.

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 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.

Bulfin also qualified for the NCAAs in 2006.

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.

K e g e l m a n 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.

A variety of other Irish swimmers and divers have been close to qualifying, including a very near miss by diver Andy Maggio in 2002.

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 showcases Canada’s 2012 Olympic potential hopefuls. LeBlanc

BIG EAST Honors Irish ProgramThree of Notre Dame’s 21 sports that compete in BIG EAST sports were honored with the 2008-09 BIG EAST Team

Excellence Awards recognizing the highest collective grade-point averages in each conference sport. The Fighting Irish men’s swimming and diving, men’s basketball and women’s tennis teams were all recipients of the second annual awards.

In addition to having the highest grade point average, the Irish women’s tennis and men’s swimming and diving teams each won BIG EAST championships -- two of the eight conference crowns that were captured by Notre Dame teams on the season.

Nineteen of Notre Dame’s 21 BIG EAST teams earned a better than 3.00 cumulative grade-point average during the ‘08-’09 academic year.

The men’s swimming and diving team finished with a 3.272 grade index in 2008-09.

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.
