Notre Dame Tops The ACC

July 5, 2016 by Bayou Irish

MollySenior track all-everything Molly Seidel was named the 2015-2016 Mary Garber Award winner by the Atlantic Coast Sports Media Association on June 30. The award is given annually to the ACC’s top female athlete. Some guy named Deshaun Watson won the men’s award.

Molly won four national championships in her senior year: 2015 NCAA Outdoor 10,000 meters, 2015 NCAA Cross Country 6k, 2016 NCAA Indoor 3,000 meters, and 2016 NCAA Indoor 5,000 meters. She also managed a 3.54 cumulative GPA and became just the third Notre Dame female track and field athlete to take first team All-American honors.

In other Notre Dame news, the University will host forty athletics administrators from China. The month-long course of instruction on athletics-program administration is the result of an agreement signed on June 7 between Notre Dame and the Federation of University Sports of China a/k/a FUSC. FUSC was founded in 1975 and is kinda sorta China’s equivalent to the NCAA. Again, the name of the group is F.U.S.C.

Notre Dame, as host, is set to provide lectures and instruction on every facet of athletics-department operation, from sports nutrition to digital media. Translators will be on hand to facilitate the engagement and visits to NCAA headquarters and Wrigley Field are part of the itinerary as well.

Finally, another Irish Molly, this one 2006 graduate Molly Huddle, lit up the 10,000 meter final at the U.S. Olympic Track & Field Team Trials in Oregon on July 2. Molly’s time was 31:41.62 and was the top time in the event. She goes for a second ticket to Rio on July 10 when she should compete in the 5,000 meter final. Molly Huddle competed for her country at the London games and finished 11th in the 10,000 meters.

Bayou Irish is a Jersey boy and Double Domer who fell under New Orleans' spell in 1995. He's been through Katrina and fourteen years in the Coast Guard, so we cut him some slack, mostly in the form of HLS-subsidized sazeracs. But, when he's not face down on the bar and communing with the ghosts of Faulkner and Capote at the Carousel Bar in the Hotel Monteleone, he's our man in SEC-land, doing his best to convince everyone around him that Graduation Success Rate is a better indicator of success than the number of MNC's won in the last five years.
