Byron V. Kanaley Award
The most prestigious honor awarded to a Notre Dame student-athlete, the
Byron V. Kanaley award has been presented each year since 1927 to the
senior monogram athletes who have been most exemplary as both students
and leaders. The awards, presented by the Faculty Board on Athletics,
are named in honor of a 1904 Notre Dame graduate who was a member of the
Irish baseball team as an undergraduate. Kanaley went on to a successful
banking career in Chicago and served the University as a lay trustee
from 1915 until his death in 1960. Four members of the Notre Dame hockey
team have received the award.
1. Kevin Hoene, 1972
2. Mark Kronholm, 1974
3. Greg Meredith, 1980
4. Tom Michalek, 1980
