Usually when Jason Fitzpatrick and Rilus Graham step into the water, they’re competing on the same team. But Friday night at Rolfs Aquatic Center, Irish breastroker Fitzpatrick and Texas Christian University freestyler Graham compet­ ed on opposite teams hoping to defeat their hometown teammate. The teammates from Desert Thunder Aquatics in Mesa, Ariz. have been training alongside each other for four years, and are used to competing on the same side of the scoreboard.

“I saw the schedule this summer, and went to TIM KACMAR/The Observer practice that day and told him he’d better watch An Irish swimmer competes against Tennessee earlier this season. Texas Christian topped the out,” Fitzpatrick said. “They beat us two years Irish 163-137 Friday. ago ... we wanted to get them back.” But the Irish weren’t able to avenge TCU’s 1999 Fitzpatrick win, as Graham’s team pulled a close victory in the matchup winning the dual meet 163-137 in the final two events of the meet. The loss puts the Irish at 5-3 on the season, after dropping meets Break? previously to Rutgers and Tennessee. “We don’t really have any pity parties to have for ourselves,” said Irish head coach Tim Welsh. “They were just a little fresher, a little faster.

Pierce outtouched Graham at the finish after swimming the entire 500 at virtually the same pace. And can you TRUST fhem??? “My coaches always taught me that the race is won or lost in the last 100 and the person who wants it more will win,” Pierce said. “I knew [Graham] was having a good race ... but the team was really counting on me to come through.” Freshman Frank Krakowski had another solid meet for the Irish, capturing wins in both the 50-yard freestyle (21.34 seconds) and 100- yard butterfly (51.33 seconds).

By KATIE McVOY Associate Sports F.ditor

Going into Saturday’s game against Navy, the starting line-up was looking shaky. Injury sidelined seven veteran Irish players, includ­ ing tailback Tony Fisher, fullback Jason Murray and flanker David Givens. With that kind of disadvantage heading into the game, even an 0-8 team had its chances. But for sev­ eral Irish players, the injuries were their chance to stop onto the field and get the job done. “I think we added up. we had seven starters out for this game,” head coach Bob Davie said. “Those guys got an opportunity to play.” And play they did.

Rushing With Fisher sidelined with a hamstring injury, junior Julius Jones could have had a lot of work to do alone. But the Irish didn’t leave him running alone, they came as a pack. Senior tailback Terrance Howard, who hadn’t seen much playing time since he fum­ bled the ball during Notre Dame’s opening loss to Nebraska, started getting yards for the Irish late in the first quarter. On the final Irish drive of the quarter Howard, who rushed for 54 yards in the game, picked up 20 yards for the Irish on two consecutive carries before Carlyle Holiday w as intercepted. “1 told my wifi' when I went home that I feel good about this weekend, ” Howard said. “Today, it showed that I was really feeling good.” NELLIE WILLIAMS/The Observer Once Howard got in the game, he proved a valuable asset.

Notre Dame safety Gerome Sapp picks up a fumble as Anthony Weaver lunges for the ball. Sapp returned the ball 39 yards to give the Irish a 10-0 lead less than six minutes into the game.

they sent Navy to 0-9 — their worst record in a half-century. The Midshipmen gave the

Irish an early scare by tying the game at 10-10 at the end of the first quarter and trailing

17-13 at the half. But then Notre Dame outscored Navy 17-3 in the second half and the
