Tom-Zbikowski

  Thomas Michael Zbikowski, better known as Tom Zbikowski, is an All-American defensive back, punt returner, and strong safety for the University of Notre Dame football team. He grew up in Arlington Heights, Illinois, and attended Buffalo Grove High School in Buffalo Grove, Illinois. He also was a golden glove boxer, who had an outstanding amateur boxing career. Zbikowski is described by coach Charlie Weis, as "all day tough." His 2005-2006 season was nothing short of sensational. Zbikowski did not play as a freshman and started as a sophomore. He is currently a senior with one remaining year of eligibility heading into the 2007 season. He was named a third team All-American safety at the conclusion of the 2006 regular season after being named third team All-American as a punt returner in 2005.

On June 10, 2006, Zbikowski made his professional boxing debut at Madison Square Garden in New York City, beating his opponent, Robert Bell of Akron, Ohio, by TKO within 49 seconds of the first round. The fight was compliant with NCAA guidelines. Bell, who is an Ohio State fan, wore an Ohio State football jersey into the ring. Zbikowski will continue his boxing career after the 2006 football season. He signed a three fight contract and has one fight left. Zbikowski's second fight was against Ryan St. Germaine on March 6, 2007 at the Century Center in South Bend, Indiana.
