Member Biography:
Zygmont Pierre "Ziggy" Czarobski was a second-string right
tackle as a freshman at Notre Dame in 1942. He was a
starter the next year, when Notre Dame won a national
championship. Ziggy was in military service, then returned to
Notre Dame and was the regular right tackle when the Irish
won national championships in 1946 and 1947. In those two
seasons Notre Dame went 17-0-1 and out-scored the
opposition 562-76. He made the INS and NEA All-America
teams in 1947, then played two years with the Chicago
Rockets of the All-America Conference. Czarobski went into
civic work and was administrative assistant to the Illinois
Secretary of State. He devoted much energy to charity and
once raised $202,000 in a single day for Maryville Academy,
a children's home. He died in July 1984.
