Mike Kondrla, freshmen in class of 1967 from Oaklyn NJ by way of Camden Catholic HS? I am friends with his son, and an Alum of CCHS. I was privileged to attend the ND vs Stanford game last year with him. Where I met some all time ND football greats from the late 60s thru the Mid 70s. Any football related memories you have of his playing time? He played between National titles, and I believe went 0-fer against U$C and maybe even Purdue. But his team beat #1 Texas in 1970 after NDs return to bowl games. TIA...
