Former Notre Dame student-athlete Matt Hegarty '15 -- was named the starting center on the Oregon football team.
Hegarty -- a starter last year for the Fighting Irish -- was not expected to start this year for Notre Dame, so he left for Eugene seeking a starting role with the Ducks.
He joins Everett Golson as one of two Notre Dame alums -- beyond the alums playing for the Fighting Irish -- who've earned a starting role on a top-ten ranked team in the pre-season polls -- after their graduation this past May.
A great indication of the football talent in South Bend!
