Montemarano, Ramirez
enjoy summer as interns

By ORION SANG

Daily Sports Writer

Earlier this summer, Abby

Ramirez’s family joked with her
that she might have been part of
an international scandal.

Just about 12 hours before the

incident that implicated Ryan
Lochte in an alleged falsification
of a police report, Ramirez had
met the legendary swimmer.

“My family and stuff were

like, ‘Oh, you were probably
involved,’ joking around and
stuff,” Ramirez said. “But it was
still cool to meet him and other
athletes.”

It was all part of her job this

summer.

Life
for
student-athletes

during the offseason is different
from that of the professional
athlete — while most pros can
focus solely on training and
recovering,
student-athletes

often take classes or look for
summer jobs or internships, all
while continuing to train.

And for Michigan softball

senior third baseman Lindsay
Montemarano
and
senior

shortstop Ramirez, that held
especially true. While they may
have finished playing in June, that
was just the beginning of what
would prove to be an eventful and
life-changing summer.

Montemarano,
an
English

major,
spent
her
offseason

interning
with
the
New

York Mets, while Ramirez, a
communications major, worked
for NBC during the Olympics in
Rio de Janeiro.

They
both
found
their

internships
with
the
help

of
the
University:
Ramirez

heard of the NBC internship
through
MPact,
a
program

that helps Michigan student-
athletes
with
their
resumes

and career opportunities, while
Montemarano was hired in part
by Fred Wilpon — the owner of
the Mets, a Michigan graduate

and the namesake of the Wilpon
Baseball and Softball Complex in
Ann Arbor.

For Montemarano, her role

with the Mets meant working at
all home game days, where she
was assigned different tasks, such
as working at booths or helping to
set up postgame concerts.

She also showed off her

softball skills once in a while —
though it was with investment
bankers and children rather than
Big Ten competition.

“Sometimes there were clinics,

and we would have to work those
with the coaches,” Montemarano
said. “One time, I stood with one
of the coaches and one of the kids
was like, ‘Girls can’t play softball.’
The coach said, ‘Well, she plays
for Michigan!’ and a little girl
asked me for my autograph,
which was cool.”

There was also one instance

when Montemarano met both
Jeff and Fred Wilpon — a meeting
during which the elder Wilpon
told Montemarano he had been
following her and her team
throughout the season and was
hoping to return to Ann Arbor
sometime for a game.

“Being able to network with so

many people shows you how great
this University is and how they
really do want to help their own,”
Montemarano said. “It’s good
to know our alumni understand
how great of an education we get
and how great this University is.”

Meanwhile, a typical day for

Ramirez began with her leading
NBC clients on a tour, before
spending the afternoon usually
working on office tasks such
as ticket coordination, guest
communication
or
writing

daily newsletters. The evening,
however,
was
perhaps
her

favorite part of her internship.
She was able to attend Olympic
events as a spectator, watching
athletes such as Michael Phelps
compete.

Though
she
was
initially

apprehensive about going to Rio
given the conditions, Ramirez
found that it was nothing like her
preconceived notions.

“Lindsay and everyone kept

saying, ‘Don’t get Zika,’ so I
was a little nervous about that,”
Ramirez said. “They were also
saying it was very dangerous
out there, so I just made sure I
was aware of everything. But it
definitely exceeded expectations.
Everyone was really friendly and
it was a really beautiful place
with breathtaking views.

“I was pleasantly surprised

because I was expecting bad
things. It was definitely better
than the media perceived it as.”

Ramirez was grateful for

her internship and admitted
it was good to take a step back
from softball, especially given
the ending to her junior season.
But softball wasn’t too far from
her mind: Ramirez was quick
to add that she spent most of
her summer training with her
teammates in Ann Arbor.

Both
Ramirez
and

Montemarano are back in Ann
Arbor now, continuing life as
students
and
preparing
for

fall exhibition games like they
usually do this time of year.

And
though
they
both

acknowledge that there’s a finality
to it all, with their final season
beckoning, the two seniors are
simply looking to finish their
Michigan careers the way they
want to: on their own terms.

“If you think about it as, ‘This

is my last year,’ it can get to you
in your head, like, ‘Oh this is
my last chance,’ ” Ramirez said.
“So we like to think about it as
(being leaders) of Team 40. We
get to set the example and show
them the ropes. We’re excited
for that, and it’ll be a cool
experience.”

Added Montemarano: “Our

ultimate goal is to win a national
championship.
That
doesn’t

change.”

Quartet to be inducted to
Michigan’s Hall of Honor

By JAKE LOURIM

Managing Sports Editor

In a few weeks, Mark Dona-

hue, Lorne Howes, Kate John-
son and Jon Urbanchek will
join the likes of Gerald Ford,
Bob Ufer, Bo Schembechler and
more than 200 others who have
changed the Michigan Athletic
Department over the years.

Michigan
announced

Wednesday that it will induct
the quartet into its Hall of
Honor on Sept. 30. The Hall of
Honor, established in 1978, rec-
ognizes figures who have made
significant contributions to the
Athletic Department in the
form of national or conference
championships, team captaincy
or All-American or All-Confer-
ence honors.

Donahue,
Howes,
John-

son and Urbanchek will bring
the total in the Hall to 217.
Last
year’s
inductees
were

Lloyd Carr, Brent Lang, John
Matchefts and Elise Ray.

Donahue
played
offensive

guard for the Michigan football
team from 1974 to 1977, winning
three Big Ten championships
under Bo Schembechler. He
also earned All-America honors
twice and started 35 games —
which was, at that time, second
in school history — as the Wol-
verines went 38-7 and reached
two Rose Bowls.

Howes

played hockey
in the 1950s.
As
Michi-

gan’s
goalie,

he
led
the

Wolverines
to
national

champion-
ships in 1955
and
1956.

Those
two

were the last
of Michigan’s five titles in six
years under coach Vic Heyliger.
In 1956, in his last career game,
Howes played “most of the third
period in severe pain resulting
from a collision in the opening
minute of the third stanza,” the

Daily reported. He also played
with bone chips in his elbow.

Johnson, a rower for Michi-

gan, graduated in 2001. She
won All-America honors three
times and the Big Ten Rower of

the Year award
twice. Compet-
ing in the early
years of Michi-
gan
rowing,

Johnson
was

instrumental
in the growth
of the program.
At
the
2001

NCAA Cham-
pionships, the
Wolverines, in

their fifth season as a varsity
program, finished third.

“We had a national champi-

onship race in us,” she told the
Daily at the time, but added,
“My goal coming to Michigan
was to set a tradition. I feel com-

fortable leaving now because
I feel we have arrived.” Since
then, the Wolverines have won
three more Big Ten champion-
ships.

Urbanchek
coached
the

Michigan men’s swimming and
diving team to more than two
decades of success from 1982
to 2004. He won 13 Big Ten
titles — 10 straight from 1986
to 1995 — plus the 1995 national
championship. He is already in
the
international
swimming

and state of Michigan sports
Halls of Fame. And yet, in 2006,
Urbanchek told the Daily, “The
awards will all tarnish with age.
But the memories will remain
vivid throughout the years.”

All four inductees will bring

back those memories when the
University honors them during
the Oct. 1 football game against
Wisconsin, after a private cer-
emony Sept. 30.

GRANT HARDY/Daily

The 2016 Hall of Honor class will be Warde Manuel’s first as athletic director.

“My goal coming

to Michigan
was to set a
tradition.”
