Adjacent to South Bend, Ind., and nestled next to Saint Mary s and Saint Joseph s Lakes, the University was started with $310 in cash and three log buildings in disrepair. Notre Dame would establish many firsts for Catholic institutions of higher learning, including the first Catholic law school, the first Catholic engineering school and the first student residence with private rooms, Sorin Hall. Students Graduate and undergraduate students at the University come from all 50 states and more than 100 countries worldwide. Notre Dame s graduation rate of 95 percent is exceeded by only Harvard and Princeton. Notre Dame s 98 percent retention rate between the freshman and sophomore years is among the highest in the country, thanks in large part to the University s unique First Year of Studies Program. Academics The University is organized into four colleges - Arts and Letters, Science, Engineering and the Mendoza College of Business - the School of Architecture, the Law School, the Graduate School, six major research institutes, more than 40 centers and special programs and the University library system. Notre Dame is among a select group of schools that ranks in the top 25 on the U.S. News & World Report survey of the nation s top colleges and in the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics Directors Cup for overall success in athletics. Community service is a hallmark of Notre Dame. About 80 percent of Notre Dame students engage in some form of voluntary community service during their years at the University, and at least 10 percent devote a year or more after graduation to service in the United States and around the world. The University s Alliance for Catholic Education (ACE) annually sends 180 recent graduates to teach in some 100 understaffed Catholic schools in the southern, southeastern and southwestern United States and in South Bend. A national model, ACE has received the Higher Education Award from the Corporation for National Service for leadership in using national service resources through AmeriCorps.

8 THIS IS NOTRE DAME The University of Notre Dame When Father Edward F. Sorin started his school in the northern Indiana wilderness, he had only $300, three log buildings badly in need of repair and a far-sighted vision of establishing a liberal arts school to meet the growing educational needs of the frontier. He dreamed of building a great university, and in 1842, he founded the University of Notre Dame du Lac. Over the years, the University of Notre Dame du Lac would evolve into a preeminent place for Catholic thought. While becoming one of the top undergraduate institutions in the country, Notre Dame has also been at the cutting edge of research, including such innovations as the transmission of wireless messages and the development of synthetic rubber. The University also has stressed residential life, with four of five students living on campus. Students come to Notre Dame not only to learn how to think, but to learn how to live, keeping faith with the vision of Father Sorin The University of Notre Dame was founded by Rev. Edward F. Sorin, C.S.C., as an independent, national Catholic university adjacent to South Bend, Ind., on St. Mary s and St. Joseph s Lakes. 11, Total enrollment at the University of Notre Dame, with 8,371 undergraduate students.

21 Season in Review The Notre Dame Fighting Irish played in the NCAA Central Regional for the third consecutive season, marking the first time in program history the Irish have appeared in three consecutive NCAA Championship fields. The Irish also had three All-BIG EAST honorees.

22 Season in Review After opening the campaign with a preseason trip to Ireland, the Fighting Irish women s golf team racked up an approximate 15,500 miles of travel over the course of what turned out to be a 10-month season. Head coach Susan Holt and the Irish can now look back on a year that will best be remembered for an unprecedented third consecutive NCAA Regional appearance. The Irish also had several impressive individual finishes throughout the 22nd season of women s varsity golf at the University of Notre Dame. The team visited the Emerald Isle from Aug and golfed five historic courses as part of a preseason trip to the southwest portion of the Ireland. The team played their first round at the Waterville Golf Club and then took on the Tralee Golf Club. A midweek round at the Killarney Golf & Fishing Club was more reminiscent of courses the team encountered on a tournament-by-tournament basis during the season. Then they played the visually stunning, and often intimidating, Old Head Golf Links before closing out the trip with 18-holes of play at the famed Ballybunion Golf Club. It was an awesome experience to play golf the way it was meant to be played, said Irish head coach Susan Holt. We are so spoiled here in the states with how our courses are kept up and maintained. Though the trip was packed with golf, the Irish found time to sightsee and learn about the Irish culture, highlighted by trips to the Cliffs of Moher, the Aillwee Caves and the Blarney Castle. It was a great team bonding opportunity as well, added Holt. There were many references made about our trip throughout the rest of the season and the great time we had Top Team Finishes/Rounds The Alamo Invitational Team Finish: T-2nd of 12 Top Individual: Annie Brophy (T-1st) BIG EAST Championship Team Finish: 3rd of 7 Top Individual: Annie Brophy (T-2nd) Bettie Lou Evans Invite Team Finish: T-3rd of 15 Top Individual: So-Hyun Park (T-8th) Windy City Collegiate Team Finish: T-4th of 15 Top Individual: Becca Huffer (5th) SunTrust Gator Women s Invitational Team Finish: 8th of 15 Top Individual: Annie Brophy (T-11th) Top Team Rounds Windy City Collegiate (1st Round) The Alamo Invitational (Final/Only Round) Bettie Lou Evans Invite (3rd Round) SunTrust Gator Women s Invite (1st Round) Windy City Collegiate (2nd Round) The Irish began the campaign with a preseason trip to Ireland where they played some of the most prestigious courses the Emerald Isle had to offer, including scenic Old Head. One of the Irish players who seemed to benefit most from the early start to the season was sophomore Becca Huffer, who turned in a top-15 showing in her first seven events of the season. She kept up her torrid play and went on to be named the Notre Dame Monogram Club s Team MVP after narrowly missing out on becoming the first player in program history to qualify for the finals of NCAA Championship play. Huffer did finish at 15-over par at the NCAA Central Regional to tie for 16th, marking the best finish by an Irish golfer in NCAA play. Becca is a very skilled golfer, said Holt. I think her best asset is her imagination because she is able to create so many shots in her mind then step up and execute those shots like no other player I have been around. It is a true gift she has that I think really sets her apart from so many other players. She puts herself in tough situations in practice and just finds a way to create a shot. Huffer built upon an impressive freshman season in which she earned BIG EAST Freshman of the Year honors to lead the Irish with a stroke average in the season. I think Becca was able to improve upon last year because she sets lofty goals which keeps her striving to be better tomorrow than she is today, added Holt. Huffer carded her best round of the year, a minus-two 70, at the Windy City Collegiate. She also had an even-par 70 in the opening round of the SunTrust Lady Gator Invitational. She ended with an even par total ( /E) at the Windy City Collegiate to mark her career-best, three-round total and, by tying for fifth, her best finish of the season. Prior to NCAA Central Regional play, she finished tied for seventh at the BIG EAST Championship ( /+18) on her way to being named to the All-BIG EAST team; her second such honor in as many seasons. Notre Dame s other top performers of the season included All-BIG EAST selections Annie Brophy, a senior, and junior Katie Conway. With the honor, Brophy became just the second player in program history to earn four All-BIG EAST honors, joining Noriko Nakazaki in that elite club. Brophy s top showing of the season came at the Alamo Invitational, where she fired a minus-two 70 (tying for the second-best round of her Irish career) in the event s only round to tie for medalist honors. Having already earned medalist honors at the 2008 BIG EAST Championship, Brophy became just the fifth player in program history to win multiple titles for the Irish. Annie was a BIG EAST individual champion her sophomore year which is a great accomplishment in itself, and she had another great win at the UTSA event her senior year which was against some really good competition, said Holt. To me, this was a real good reality check for Annie. There are many strong points to her game; she just needs to fine tune some aspects and she will be as good as she wants to be. Brophy s best three-round total came at the Windy City Collegiate, where she finished at oneover par (217) and tied for sixth. Her one-over par total was aided by an opening round three-under par 69, marking the best round of her Irish career and tying for the fifth-lowest round in program history. Brophy went on to finish tied for second at the 2010 BIG EAST Championship. Conway earned her first All-BIG EAST honor after placing third on the team with a stroke average. Along with Huffer and Brophy, Conway was one of just three Irish players to tee it up as a member of the Notre Dame starting five at all UNIVERSITY OF NOTRE DAME

23 Becca Huffer led the Irish with a stroke average on the season and now owns the best career mark in program history at events in Katie had a solid junior year after struggling at the end of her sophomore year, said Holt. She matured a lot, which allowed her to play more consistently. Conway s best finish came at the Alamo Invitational, where she tied for 13th. She turned in an opening round 70 at the SunTrust Lady Gator Invitational for her best round of the season and it matched her lowest career stroke total with the Irish, having previously netted a 70 in the third round of the 2008 Heather Farr Memorial. The team will need her to continue to mature and do even better her senior year and I think her best golf at Notre Dame is yet to come, concluded Holt. Other top individual performances included So-Hyun Park s tie for eighth at the Bettie Lou Evans invite, where she fired a first round 75 and, after the second round was cancelled due to rain, followed with a one-over par 72 in the final round of play. Through three seasons of play, Park now ranks third in career stroke average with a mark and fifth in rounds counted towards the team score with an 87.4 percentage (83 of 95). Katie Allare made her collegiate debut as an individual entrant at the Bettie Lou Evans Invite and eventually worked her way into Notre Dame s starting five for postseason play. In the opening round of the 2010 BIG EAST Championship, her first round of play with the team, Allare led the Irish by carding a 78. She went on to finish tied for 15th at the event. As a team, the Irish recorded a stroke average the fourth best mark in program history. Notre Dame s best finish of the season came at the Alamo Invitational when the Irish shot a combined four-over par 292 to tie for second in the 12-team field. While Brophy earned co-medalist honors at the event, Huffer, Park and Conway all fired twoover par 74s to round out the scoring. Notre Dame also finished third at the Bettie Lou Evans Invite (tie) and at the 2010 BIG EAST Championship. The Irish, having firmly established themselves as a fixture in NCAA Regional play, will be looking to make the leap to next season s championship field without the services of Brophy, who wrapped up her four years having played 126 competitive rounds for the Irish and posting the fourth best stroke average in program history (76.60). Annie will be a real loss for our program on and off the course because she was a great leader by example in so many ways, said Holt. She was vocal and could back it up with her own play, which her teammates respected. We will need some others to step up and fill the leadership role on this team as we move on. Annie is a great person with a great heart who did a lot of community service projects and did a great job getting her teammates involved. Though replacing Brophy in the lineup and in the locker room will be difficult, Holt and assistant coach Kyle Lynne Veltri are bringing in another highly touted duo of recruits who should help the Irish reach their goals for years to come. The class is led by Nicole Zhang of Calgary, Alberta, Canada, who became the first member of the Notre Dame women s golf program to qualify for the U.S. Women s Open when she earned a 2010 invite by virtue of finishing fourth at a qualifying event at the Pinnacle Peak Country Club. Zhang will arrive at Notre Dame in the fall as the 10th-ranked recruit for the class of 2010 according to Golfweek. She is joined by Kristina Nhim of Buena Park, Calif., who is the 43rd-ranked recruit for the class of 2010 according to Golfweek. With Huffer and Conway coming off impressive seasons and Katie Allare looking to build on the momentum that allowed her to contribute to the team during the postseason, the Irish are looking forward to a successful season. Notre Dame will have an even better chance to advance beyond regional play next season because it will play host to the 2011 NCAA Central Regional at their own Warren Golf Course. Add an impressive incoming freshman class of Zhang and Nhim combined with a return to form by Park, who earned the program s first All-American honor in 2008, to the other factors and Notre Dame could be poised to make the final breakthrough into the NCAA Championship field in Individual Highlights Top Individual Finishes Annie Brophy - T-1st (The Alamo Invitational, 70/-2) Annie Brophy - T-2nd (BIG EAST Championship, 226/+10) Becca Huffer - 5th (Windy City Collegiate, 216/E) Becca Huffer - T-7th (BIG EAST Championship, 234/+18) Final Stroke Averages Becca Huffer Annie Brophy Katie Conway So-Hyun Park Kristin Wetzel Katie Allare Julie Kim TEAM Women's golf 21

Huffer claimed BIG EAST Freshman of the Year honors, while Lisa Maunu claimed medalist honors at the 2009 BIG EAST Tournament, Notre Dame s second medalist in as many years at the event. Three seasons ago, in Holt s second season with the Irish, Notre Dame won the 2008 BIG EAST title.

45 including the BIG EAST championship. Three straight wins to open the season signified another program milestone for the Irish. Three golfers combined to win four tournaments on the season and the year was capped with a trip to the NCAA Central Regional in Austin, Texas. After the record breaking campaign, Park became the program s first All-America honoree as she copped honorable mention All-America accolades from the National Golf Coaches Association and Golfweek magazine. Park won two tournaments on the year and posted a single season-best stroke average. The season commenced with a win at the Cougar Classic in Hanahan, S.C. Maunu earned medalist honors by firing a school-record three-round total of 210 (-6). Maunu s first-round six-under par 66 also represented a program record. Notre Dame followed that with a victory at the Napa River Grill Cardinal Cup in Simpsonville, Ky. Park made it a second clean sweep for the Fighting Irish as she claimed the victory. The Irish made it three in a row with a triumph at the Wolverine Invitational in Ann Arbor, Mich. A fourth team victory was achieved in the spring at the Rio Verde Collegiate Invitational in Rio Verde, Ariz. For the third time on the year, Notre Dame swept the hardware as Park captured the individual title. Holt and the Irish then delivered on one of the team s goals for the year by winning the BIG EAST title by nine shots over two-time defending conference champion Louisville in Batavia, Ohio. Brophy became the first Notre Dame golfer to win the BIG EAST title outright. Brophy and three of her teammates went on to claim allconference accolades. In all, the Irish finished in the top-five in nine of the 11 tournaments on the season and registered 20 top-10 individual showings. Notre Dame also reached as high as 12th in the Golfstat rankings during the year. That was the highest ranking ever for the Irish, who had two freshmen and two sophomores in the five-person scoring lineup all season long. Notre Dame garnered the ninth seed in the NCAA Central Regional before finishing 16th. In her first campaign with the Fighting Irish, Holt s team posted a then school-record scoring average of during the season.

The Irish tied a program record by placing four student-athletes on the all- BIG EAST Team with the fine performance at the 2007 BIG EAST Championship. Throughout the season, Notre Dame produced two runner-up finishes, including one at the Lady Irish Invitational. The other second-place finish occurred at Kansas Marilynn Smith Sunflower Invitational. The results were even more impressive given the Irish squad featured three freshmen in the five-person scoring lineup during the entire spring semester. Notre Dame also made history when senior co-captain Noriko Nakazaki became the first team member in program history to qualify for NCAA play as an individual entrant. Nakazaki carded a threeround score of 224 (+11) to place in a tie for 18th at the NCAA Central Regional in Ann Arbor, Mich.

Holt brought in the top recruiting class in program history for the season as Notre Dame s Class of 2011 was comprised of Conway and Park, who were both ranked in the top-25 nationally. Another stellar class that featured Huffer- also a top-25 recruit- and Katie Allare joined the Irish in the fall of In the fall of 2010, the highly touted duo of Kristina Nhim and Nicole Zhang, who is also a top-25 recruit and a qualifier for the 2010 U.S. Women's Open, will join the Irish.

Holt came to Notre Dame from the University of South Florida, where she spent 13 successful seasons guiding the Bulls. In her final season, USF joined the BIG EAST Conference and she led the Bulls to a tie for third, along with the Irish, in their inaugural BIG EAST tournament. First and foremost, I was attracted by the opportunity to come to what I believe is the best academic and athletic combination that s out there, says Holt on why she decided to come to Notre Dame following a successful run at South Florida. The commitment to the golf program with the course and the new indoor facility makes a statement. As a coach you want to know that you have a chance to be successful and you can tell that s how it is at Notre Dame and it s impressive to see that.

Warren Golf Course at Notre Dame. Since its opening date, the course has been hailed as one of the best courses in America by Golf Digest and has been featured in Links Magazine and Golf Digest as a must-play venue. Through the generous donation of Notre Dame alumnus and Tulsa, Okla., resident Bill Warren ( 56), the University features an impressive 18-hole golf course, located a stone s throw away from the northeast corner of campus. Constructed in a heavily wooded area, the facility is bordered by Douglas Road to the south, Juniper Road to the west, Ironwood Drive to the east and the Indiana Toll Road to the north. Since its inception, the Warren has played host to many marquee events. Most recently, the Warren played host the United States Golf Association s U.S. Women s Amateur Public Links Championship, on June 21-26, The Warren also was the host site for the 2010 NCAAA Men s Central Regional. Then, on May 5-7, 2011, the Warren will play host to the 2011 NCAA Women s Central Regional. The course was designed by the Austin, Texas-based architectural team of Coore and Crenshaw, headed by Bill Coore and PGA Tour veteran Ben Crenshaw. Coore began his design and construction career in 1972 with noted course architect Pete Dye and formed his own company in 1982 before joining forces with Crenshaw four years later. Founded in 1986, Coore and Crenshaw has established a reputation for creating courses based on traditional, strategic golf, including: the Plantation Course at the Kapalua Resort in Maui, Hawaii; Cuscowilla Golf Club in Greensboro, Ga.; Sand Hills Golf Club in Mullen, Neb.; Barton Creek Club in Austin; the New Town Golf Club in Indonesia; Talking Stick in Scottsdale, Ariz.; and the East Hampton Golf Club on Long Island. Most recently, they designed the highly acclaimed Bandon Dunes in Oregon. Coore and Crenshaw also has undertaken several renovation projects, including the Southern Hills Country Club (in Tulsa) and the Prairie Dunes Golf Club (located in Kansas). The firm oversaw nine-hole additions to the Southern Hills Country Club in Tulsa and the Onion Creek Country Club in Austin. The existing Notre Dame Memorial Golf Course, located on the southwest side of campus, served as an 18-hole facility for the Notre Dame community until 1993, when the back nine was lost due to the addition of four campus dormitories and several athletic fields. The 70-year-old University course remains a convenient nine-hole facility available to the campus community. After losing the back nine of the existing course, Mr. Warren came forward with an interest in developing a new 18-hole, championship course, said Notre Dame special assistant to the president Rev. E. William Beauchamp, C.S.C. It then became apparent that this was a project worth pursuing. Since Mr. Warren was familiar with the team of Coore and Crenshaw through its work in Tulsa, it was a very natural fit. We are very grateful for Mr. Warren s generosity, said Beauchamp. Such a championship-level course allows our golf teams to be more competitive on a national level. The course is intended to benefit the entire Notre Dame community while still retaining the existing course as a nine-hole facility for instructional purposes. Course construction began on March 1, 1997, with the first actual phases of dirt movement beginning two months later. Many of the day-to-day tasks were coordinated by the University s department of facility engineering, under the ultimate supervision of associate vice president for business operations Jim Lyphout. The project also was coordinated by former associate athletic director Bubba Cunningham, who had responsibilities for athletic facility and financial affairs at the time. Final construction was overseen by Doug Marsh, director of the Notre Dame facilities engineering office. Assisting in this monumental task was Butch Layman, a construction administrator in the facilities engineering office. South Bend-based Rieth Reilly Construction was contracted to handle the movement of approximately 100,000 yards of dirt. Another local company, Ziolkowski Construction, handled construction of the course s buildings and other structures. Final details of the course were directed by Tom Beck, construction superintendent for Coore and Crenshaw, and his associate Jeff Bradley. Kim Hocker, the now former golf course superintendent of the Warren Golf Course and the existing University golf course, and his dedicated staff added their expertise to the successful finish of the project. Final construction completed in the fall of 1999 included grading and seeding of the driving range, construction of tee areas around the clubhouse, Warren Golf Course Earns Top-15 Ranking From Golf Digest The University of Notre Dame's Warren Golf Course has been chosen as one of the top 15 college courses in the nation, according to a feature article in the September 2005 issue of Golf Digest. The magazine used a variety of criteria in rating the various layouts, including shot values, resistance to scoring, design variety, memorability, aesthetics, conditioning, ambience and bonus walking points. The Warren Golf Course was ranked 15th in the country and is one of the newest courses on the 2005 Golf Digest list. The ranking from Golf Digest is only one of honors for the Warren Golf Course in its brief history. Here's a partial list of the accolades the Notre Dame layout has received since opening in 2000: Annually named as one of the nation s Top-100 Places You Can Play by Golf Digest Second-best public golf course in Indiana - Golfweek, 2007 Third-best public golf course in Indiana - Golfweek, 2006 Third-best public golf course in Indiana - Golf Digest, th-best collegiate facility in the country - Golfweek, 2005 Golf Magazine, March 2001: "Top 10 You Can Play" -- honorable mention selection (one of only 35 courses in the country chosen) Golf and Travel Magazine, August 2001: 40 Best Daily Fee Courses: No. 33 in United States (only course in the state of Indiana ranked) Best New Courses of 2000: No. 5 in Affordable Public Division - Golf Digest Chicagoland Golf Magazine: Five-star rating (highest) Certified International Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary 46 UNIVERSITY OF NOTRE DAME

49 Warren Golf Course Recognized For Environmental Excellence The William K. and Natalie O. Warren Golf Course has achieved designation as a Certified Audobon Cooperative Sanctuary by the Audobon Cooperative Sanctuary System (ACSS), the educational division of Audobon International. The Warren Course was the sixth course in Indiana and the 335th in the world to achieve this honor. The Warren Golf Course has shown strong commitment to its environmental program. They are to be commended for their efforts to provide sanctuary for wildlife on the golf course property, said Joellen Zeh, staff ecologist for the ACSS. To reach certification, a course must demonstrate that they are maintaining a high degree of environmental quality in a number of areas, said Zeh. We are extremely proud to be certified Audobon Cooperative Sanctuary, said Kim Hocker, the now former golf course superintendent at the Warren Golf Course. From the beginning, it was the goal of the University of Notre Dame to create an environmentally-sound golf course. In addition, the overwhelming positive response from golfers and the local community has made our efforts worthwhile. completion of the many strategically-placed bunkers, overseeding of the fairways and roughs, and the defining of the course during the grow-in period. A number of trees and ornamental grasses were planted to add finishing touches. Brian Godfrey was named the first PGA director of golf and general manager for the Notre Dame Golf Courses in October of In 2003, John Foster assumed the post of General Manager and Head Golf Professional at the Warren. His duties at the Warren Golf Course include overseeing the operation of both courses, in addition to pro shops, clubhouse and driving range management. He coordinates course use to balance and meet the requirements of the varsity golf teams, course members, faculty, staff, students and the public. Foster also maintains the golf facility budgets as well as oversees staff training. The design of the Warren Golf Course is reminiscent of the classic, walkable Irish and American courses built in the late 1800s and early 1900s, with short distances between the greens and tees. Winding its way through 250 wooded acres, the course incorporates traditional elements of the great golf courses of the early 1900s and unlike many modern layouts is built on subtleties rather than special effects. Players have been impressed with the design, said Godfrey after the course opened in From the dramatic bunkering to the strategic designs of the greens, it is challenging and enjoyable for golfers of all abilities. Distinguishing features include: rectangular tee boxes that provide a classic start to each hole; undulating greens of varying shapes constructed in a push-up style that slopes from back to front; false fronts to greens that allow a golfer to run the ball or fly it to the flag; strategically-placed bunkers that visually enhance each hole while challenging players to proceed with caution The course runs 7,020 yards from the back tees, 6,003 from the middle and 5,302 from the forward tees. It includes 88 bunkers scattered among the 18 holes, and water comes into play on six holes. The course has bent grass fairways and fescue grass rough, playing surfaces found at some of today s top facilities. Though the course originally did not originally play with a par, it currently plays at par 71. We maintain the course in a dry and firm manner that will be true to the vision of the architects, said Godfrey. Many older courses required the player to have both the ability to run the ball along the ground as well as being able to fly it to the flag. A firmer surface allows for both options. This type of maintenance plan also requires fewer chemical applications and less water, which will allow for an environmentally-friendly course. The designers received full permits to realign the existing Juday Creek that runs through the course and environmental safeguards were a priority in design and construction. A new creek channel was opened, resulting in a complete created habitat. The creek winds through the finishing holes, which are noted for heavy woods and change of elevations pro- viding a beautiful, challenging completion to the inward nine. Constant monitoring of the creek ensures a healthy and natural environment. Some 4,400 native hardwood trees and shrubs were planted to increase the stream's canopy cover. Approximately 360 large boulders, along with gravel and logs, were added to the slopes and bed to enhance fish habitat while a permanent sediment trap was installed. A combination of pest management, drainage and filtration techniques minimizes the use and impact of fertilizers and pesticides while 2,200 feet of new shaded stream course were created to relocate the stream from the golf course proper. Environmental engineers J.F. New & Associates directed these aspects of the project, and Ronald A. Hellenthal, professor of biological sciences at Notre Dame and Gillen Director of its Environmental Research Center, reviewed the plans and continues to monitor the creek. Two lakes add to the challenge of the course, with one stationed between the third and fourth holes while another provides a hazard from the tee of the 17th hole. Water comes into play with the existing Juday Creek winding through holes 16 and 18 while additional creeks were added on holes 10 and 18. The 7,000-foot clubhouse designed by Moake-Park Group Inc. of Fort Wayne, Ind., in a French Country style was completed in June of 99. The building matches the period of the course architecture (early 1900s), with a classic clinker style brick exterior. The design is completed by copper cupolas, dormers and trim, a slate roof and an enclosed porch. Brick fireplaces are located on both sides of the building, which welcomes the University community to venture over for lunch, meetings or shopping. The clubhouse is open to the public and houses some of the finest in men s and women s golf apparel, with both the Warren Golf Course logo as well as traditional Notre Dame merchandise and souvenirs. The Warren Grille, which is operated by Notre Dame Food Services, serves traditional golf course fare as well as specialty items and sandwiches.

50 Warren Golf Course A view from the 372-yard 1st hole. A slight dogleg to the left, this hole gives you an idea of what is to come with the rough look of the bunkers on the left to the well protected, small green. The fairway bunkers on the 216-yard 11th hole provide an architectural deception, in that from the tee the front bunkers appear to be located on the sides of the green when they, in fact, are 20 yards short of it (bunkers also are located on the sides of the green). The 197-yard 14th is one of Ben Crenshaw s favorite holes on the Warren Golf Course. Noted for its old-scottish style, the hole includes an elevated green and two bunkers to the right of the green that cannot be seen from the tee (unlike those to the left of the green). The hole is even more scenic when framed by full foliage in the surrounding trees. The view from behind the 414-yard eighth hole looks to a green that is rectangular in shape and slopes dramatically from the rear, with an open front that allows either a bump-and-run shot or one that is flown to the green. The 15th green is located just a stone s throw from the clubhouse, yet the building is obscured by a distinctive variety of trees that rim the putting green. This is a look from the fairway of the 436-yard sixth hole. The green is guarded by two trees and has a narrow entrance that is protected by bunkers both left and right. The Starter s Cottage is visible in the right side of the picture. Above is a look from the picturesque tee at the 16th hole. Overlooking Juday Creek from the elevated tee, the hole ascends up and to the left to a tiny, undulating green that is very well protected by classic Coore- and Crenshaw-designed bunkers. 48 UNIVERSITY OF NOTRE DAME

51 The elevated tee from the longest hole on the course, the 480-yard 17th hole, overlooks a pond to the left and the large bunkers in the bank of the hill, leading to a sharp dogleg-left approach to the green. The finishing hole s tee shot (above) must carry the new stretch of Juday Creek and bend left to the green. The entire left side of the 18th fairway is bordered by the bed of the former Juday Creek, which has been filled to form a new stream. The 495-yard 10th hole is another long hole that a big hitter may try to reach in two. Watch out for the creek that runs diagonally across the entire width of the fairway in front of the green. The eastside back porch of the clubhouse (above) overlooks the finishing holes and welcomes golfers from the nearby 18th green. The westside entrance to the clubhouse sits beyond the ninth green, which is noted for its back-to-front slope and is surrounded by deceptive and treacherous bunkering. The ninth hole, as seen from one of the Warren Golf Course's distinctive rectangular tee boxes, is beautifully framed by trees, and the clubhouse is located behind the green. A picturesque view from the tee box greets golfers at the dogleg-left seventh hole (398 yards), with a solitary tree adding some danger down the left side of the fairway women's golf 49

52 Varsity Golf Facility The Robert and Marilyn Rolfs Family All-Season Varsity Golf Facility (opened Sept. 30, 2006) A 5,000-square foot indoor short game area, that includes a putting green, chip and pitch area along with a practice bunker allows the studentathletes the ability to practice their short game year-round on campus. The Robert and Marilyn Rolfs Family All-Season Varsity Golf Facility, which is located at the Warren Golf Course on the northeast corner of the University of Notre Dame campus, opened on Sept. 30, 2006 with a private dedication ceremony. The $2.1 million, 10,333-square foot facility is used by both the Irish men s and women s golf programs. We are seeing an immediate impact with recruiting and that will only make our program stronger by bringing in top-level talent. The facility will also allow us to get quality practice time all year round. The putting and chipping areas are extremely nice and very authentic. Notre Dame head coach Susan Holt One of the nicest features of the facility are the six hitting stations that are located within the building that lead out to the Warren Golf Course driving range, allowing players to work on their swings in all weather conditions. Incorporated within the stations is state-of-the-art video equipment to give players and coaches instant feedback on players swing techniques. Each studentathlete has his or her own locker area in their respective locker room. Four offices are located on the east end of the building to accommodate the coaching staffs. A fully furnished lounge is available to members of both teams for studying or relaxing. Another asset for the teams is a club repair room, which is located in the southern wing of the facility. 50 UNIVERSITY OF NOTRE DAME
