A Notre Dame Man: How Mike DeCicco Made Notre Dame Fencing into an International Powerhouse

<p> This thesis, <em>A Notre Dame Man: How Mike DeCicco Made Notre Dame Fencing into an International Powerhouse </em>argues that Mike DeCicco was different from the coaches who came before him, due to his connections within the American and international fencing community, and his relationship with Father Hesburgh. <em>A Notre Dame Man </em>also contends that a Notre Dame team can succeed without a vocal fanbase, united by a Catholic identity. This thesis engages with histories of sport, ethnicity, class, and gender in twentieth-century American history. </p>
