Episode 78: Tee Time: A Season 3 Send-off With Notre Dame Golf (feat. Pete Bevacqua, Alexsandra Lapple, Breanna Jenco, Jacob Modleski, John Handrigan, Gia Kvaratskhelia)
Wednesday, 25 March, 2026
We’re shifting gears to the greens for the debut of the highly anticipated Golf Leprechaun—the logo update your weekend bag has been begging for. AD Pete Bevacqua and our golf programs dive into the "Notre Dame Advantage," where student-athletes balance world-class degrees with elite opportunities that range from the hallowed fairways of Augusta to the "one-two punch" of the nation’s best resources. Plus, Tony attempts to convince the actual pros that his 10-finger grip is a legitimate technical innovation (it’s not), while the teams prepare to carry this championship momentum into the spring postseason. We’re closing out the season with a literal trophy haul as Coach Gia Kvaratskhelia and the fencing squad drop by to explain how two more National Championships are just another day at the office for the most dominant brand in college sports. Whether we’re taking a victory lap for the blades or fueling up the jet for the next tournament, this finale is a sharp reminder that at Notre Dame, excellence is the only standard. 00:00 - Intro 02:20 - Pete Bevacqua 15:57 - Subject Matter Expert - Women’s Golf - Alexsandra Lapple, Breanna Jenco 33:32 - Men’s Golf - Jacob Modleski, John Handrigan 59:16 - Tell Me A Story - Gia Kvaratskhelia 1:08:39 - Outro
