  • Feb. 25, 2005 MIDWEST FENCING CONFERENCE CHAMPIONSHIP to FEATURE FINAL HOME APPEARANCE of ELITE NOTRE DAME STUDENT-ATH
    RELEASE: Feb. 25, 2005 MIDWEST FENCING CONFERENCE CHAMPIONSHIP TO FEATURE FINAL HOME APPEARANCE OF ELITE NOTRE DAME STUDENT-ATHLETE ALICJA KRYCZALO Fans who swing the Joyce Center this weekend to watch the Irish basketball teams in action could have the chance to see one of the most accomplished and dominant student-athletes in Notre Dame history. It’s not Chris Thomas … and it’s not Jacqueline Batteast. In fact, this elite athlete will be competing in the other dome of the Joyce Center, doing battle on the north side in the fieldhouse. This weekend’s two-day Midwest Fencing Conference Championships will mark the final home event for Notre Dame senior foilist Alicja Kryczalo, who in mid-March will be taking aim at her fourth NCAA title. Winning three NCAA titles already has placed Kryczalo alongside 1940 Sullivan Award winner and distance runner Greg Rice for the most career NCAA titles. If she wins again on March 20 in Houston, Texas, she will join an exclusive group of 29 previous Division I athletes who have won the same NCAA championship four times. It’s a list that includes only two others fencers (men or women, with just one since the mid-1980s) and other such legendary names as distance runners Steve Prefontaine and Suzy Favor, wrestler Pat Smith, shot putter Michael Carter and a parade of swimmers who also starred on the Olympic stage (among them Mark Spitz, John Naber, Jenny Thompson, Mary T. Meagher, Pablo Morales and Ian Crocker, plus diver Troy Dumais; see full list below). The Midwest Fencing Conference weekend, which includes team competition on Saturday, Feb.
