Whatever field they choose to enter, McIntire alumni are known as winners. They're even grabbing headlines for stellar performances on the football field.

Al Groh (McIntire '66), who played defensive end at the University of Virginia, was recently named Head Coach of the U.Va. football team. The University of Virginia is "a place you belong to forever," he told the press, and its football-coaching job is the only one that could have pried him from the New York Jets.

Twins Tiki and Ronde Barber (McIntire '97) both had outstanding years in the NFL. This was a breakout season for Tiki, who starred as a running back, receiver, and punt returner for the New York Giants. He racked up 2,085 all-purpose yards, including 1,006 rushing. The NFC champion Giants were defeated by the Baltimore Ravens in Super Bowl XXXV Jan. 28, 2001.

Cornerback Ronde helped the Tampa Bay Buccaneers secondary rank first in the NFC against the pass. He posted career highs in tackles (74) and passes defensed (16), while intercepting two passes.
