BERNARD COMMITS

From the moment he walked on campus, St. Thomas Aquinas running back Gio Bernard knew that Notre Dame was the place he wanted to be.

A week after returning from South Bend, Ind., and watching a thrilling game between Notre Dame and Southern California, Bernard, a 5-9, 200-pounder, committed to play for the Irish.

``Notre Dame is the perfect fit for me,'' Bernard said. ``The education, the alumni and the entire college atmosphere. I am excited about the opportunity.''

This has been a rough year for Bernard. He was injured before a nationally televised game against Byrnes, S.C., and he has missed the past three games. His return to the lineup is on a week-to-week basis.

``That game against Byrnes was very frustrating for me because I was not even close to 50 percent,'' Bernard said. ``I won't come back until I am fully healed, and I hope that is soon. But something like this you cannot rush.''
