Chicago Blackhawks vice president and general manager Stan Bowman (class of '95), and longtime NFL and former Irish football standout Tim Grunhard (class of '90) will be honored at the annual induction ceremonies that will take place at the Hawthorne Race Course in Stickney/Cicero, Ill. Grunhard also will receive the George Connor Lifetime Achieve- ment Award. Bowman earned his degrees in finance and computer applications and has been with the Blackhawks for 14 years, beginning with the 2000-01 campaign. He has played a major role in the team's three Stanley Cup victories in 2010, 2013 and 2015. After originally work- ing in hockey operations, Bowman became the Chicago general manager in July 2009 and added the title vice president a year later. Grunhard played offensive guard for the Irish from 1986-89 and was a vocal leader as a starter on the 1988-89 teams that won a school-record 23 consecutive games and captured the 1988 na- tional title. He's a Chicago product after starring at St. Laurence High School in Burbank, Ill., and went on to start 164 games at center over 11 seasons for the Kansas City Chiefs through 2000. Originally a second-round NFL Draft pick in 1990, he received Pro Bowl recognition in 1999. Grunhard and Bowman join a long list of Notre Dame representa- tives in the Chicagoland Sports Hall of Fame — including Norman J. Barry, Pete Bercich, Rocky Bleier, Terry Brennan, Tony Carey, Dave Casper, Connor, Ziggy Czarobski, Dave Duerson, Jerry Groom, Paul Hornung, Jim Johnson, Moose Krause, Bob Kuechenberg, John Lattner, Elmer Layden, Frank Leahy, Ara Parseghian, John Paxson, Nick Rassas, Knute Rockne, Jim Seymour, Dan Shannon, Father John Smyth, Gene Sullivan, Tom Thayer, Renaldo Wynn, Tom Zbikowski and Chris Zorich.
