Message from the President
The accomplishments of our Vikings go on and
on, but without you, the Alumni, many things
would not be possible. …thank you from the
bottom of my heart for the support that you have
shown for your Alma Mater during the Viking
Fund Drive. The response from the alumni
continues to be overwhelming, enabling families
to keep their children at Archbishop Wood to
continue their Catholic education.
W
elcome to the second edition of the Viking.
I hope you enjoy reading about all of the
wonderful things that are happening at
your Alma Mater. It is with great pride
and pleasure that we send you a magazine
that depicts life today at Archbishop Wood and enables us to keep
you informed about the successes of your fellow alumni.
I’m also proud to announce the induction of three of our alumni
into very special organizations. Mr. Jim Hirschmann, Class of
1978, was recently inducted into the Archdiocese of Philadelphia’s
Distinguished Graduate Hall of Fame. Ms. Debbie Black, Class of
1984, has been inducted into the Philadelphia Sports Hall of Fame.
Ms. Kimberly Davidow, Class of 2005, has been nominated for an
Emmy for her work as a news reporter at WFMZ-TV, Channel 69,
in Allentown. Congratulations again to these three fine individuals
whose success reflects so favorably on their alma mater!
In my last letter to you I mentioned my dream of a Sports
Complex for the Archbishop Wood Vikings. I am happy to report
that we are coming to the close of our feasibility study and are
moving forward with a Capital Campaign in the very near future.
We still have a long way to go, but I am confident that with your
help we can accomplish this dream. I hope that we can all stand
together and dedicate the opening of the facility as we celebrate the
50th Anniversary of Archbishop Wood High School.
The Viking community continues to thrive, with a freshman class
of 300 and an overall enrollment of 1,089 students. Our academic,
athletic and activity programs are as strong as ever. Our recently
graduated Class of 2012 received over twenty eight million dollars
in scholarships and grants. This school year, Wood has seventeen
Neumann Scholars, two National Merit Finalists and five National
Merit Commended students. Furthermore, fifty-nine of our students
currently receive three college credits each through our Dual
Enrollment Program with Bucks County Community College.
Our athletic and activity programs speak for themselves,

with three State Girls Basketball Championships, a Football
State Championship, four PCL Championships, five District XII
Champions, one hundred and five All Catholic Athletes, twelve
All State Athletes, thirteen members of All Catholic Band,
Chorus and Orchestra, a Marching Unit Cavalcade of Bands State
Championship, and many more Viking successes.
The accomplishments of our Vikings go on and on, but without
you, the Alumni, many things would not be possible. I would like
to take a moment to say thank you from the bottom of my heart
for the support that you have shown for your Alma Mater during
the Viking Fund Drive. The response from the alumni continues
to be overwhelming, enabling families to keep their children at
Archbishop Wood to continue their Catholic education. In fact,
your support enabled us to paint the entire building and begin the
process of replacing all of our classroom doors. The first floor
has been completed, this June we will begin to renovate bathrooms
throughout the facility, and the lighting in our entire facility is
being replaced with motion sensors being installed in all of the
classrooms, offices and gyms. The cost savings will be significant
for our school.
I thank all of you for your contributions, and I hope that you
will continue to support Archbishop Wood. If you could not
contribute last year, hopefully you will consider your Alma Mater
this year. With your continued support, we can work together to
ensure the good news of the Archbishop Wood Vikings.
Finally, thank you for everything, and may God bless you and
your families! Enjoy the magazine, and see you soon!
Sincerely yours,
Gary V. Zimmaro Sr.

Jim Hirschmann ’78 honored with the
Distinguished Graduate Award
J
im Hirschmann, Class of 1978 was one of five recipients of the
Distinguished Graduate Award by the Archdiocese of Philadelphia
on October 11 in Philadelphia.
Jim’s family, friends and former coaches were in attendance at
the Awards Dinner held in the Crystal Tea Room. Jim was introduced
by Nicholas Ortiz ’13, a Hirschmann Family Scholarship recipient.
Archbishop Wood was well represented by Fran Walsh ’13 as a Student
Ambassador and Rachel Campana ’13, who gave a wonderful rendition
of the Star Spangled Banner.
Bob Kelly, CBS3 Traffic reporter, was the emcee for the event.
Archbishop Charles J. Chaput and Mayor Michael Nutter spoke and
congratulated the honorees.
At a very young age, Jim Hirschmann learned that Catholic faith
and Catholic education went hand-in-hand and that everyone from
parents and teachers to priests, sisters, and coaches played an integral
part in fostering faith-filled students. An active member of his parish’s
CYO program, Jim loved playing basketball, baseball, track and any
other sport he could get involved in. He also spent his time serving
as an altar boy and singing in the choir. It’s no wonder that now, as
president and CEO of Western Asset Management Company–one of
the world’s largest investment managers– Jim still lives his life with
excellence grounded in faith. For you see, what sets Western Asset apart
from its competitors are several tenants of Jim’s Catholic upbringing:
a nurturing environment, mutual respect and responsibility, discipline,
and high expectations both in and out of the office.
Jim currently resides in Pasadena, CA, with his wife Laura and their
two children.
Jim Hirschmann is congratulated by Bishop Michael Fitzgerald

2011 Philadelphia Sports
Hall of Fame Inductee

Debbie Black ’84
By Mel Greenberg
This article is reprinted from the 2011
Philadelphia Sports Hall of Fame
program
O
hio State Women’s Basketball
Coach Jim Foster remembers
the first time he saw Debbie
Black on a basketball court, back in the
early 1980s when he was at the front of
his career on the sidelines guiding Saint
Joseph’s University.
“Pink ribbons. Blonde ponytail. Just
a bundle of energy. And she was 14
years old,” Foster recently recalled of his
future Hawks star who made her mark at
Archbishop Wood in the Catholic League.
“And her energy was such she could
overcome those (opponents) who had
superior skill,” Foster continued about
Black, who is one of the tonight’s Class
of 2012 inductees into the Philadelphia
Sports Hall of Fame.
“Back then there were no limits
on how much time you could spend
recruiting and I saw a bunch of Debbie’s
games, in part to see if there were any
significant others,” Foster referred to
additional potential prospects.
“And with her, it was always ‘will’ over
those who had natural gifts and I used
to think, ‘What am I seeing that others
are not? This is going to be easier than I
thought.”
Black, now one of Foster’s assistants
with the Buckeyes, arrived on Hawk Hill
in the autumn of 1984 and quickly made
an impact at Saint Joseph’s. A month

into her freshmen season, the Hawks played
in La Salle’s holiday tournament and upset
nationally-ranked Western Kentucky and
Iowa’s, which was then in its first year under
former Cheyney great C. Vivian Stringer
(now at Rutgers).
The Western Kentucky game became
memorable in local women’s hoops. Black,
playing like a pesky gnat on defense, so
frustrated Hilltoppers star Clementte
Haskins, the daughter of men’s collegiate
coach Clem Haskins, that after the contest
went into overtime, Haskins launched a
roundhouse punch at Black that got Haskins
tossed. The Hawks went on to capture the
event and the following week Saint Joseph’s
had its first national ranking under Foster in
the Associated Press women’s poll.
In fact, Black so made Foster’s career,
which has included a stop at Vanderbilt and
as an assistant on the 1992 US Women’s
Olympic Team, that he himself is headed for
induction into the Women’s Basketball Hall
of Fame next June.
Black is considered Saint Joseph’s greatest
all-time all-around athlete after also starring
in field hockey and softball and winning 12
varsity letters. Statistically, Black’s basketball
marks with the Hawks have continued to hold
up several decades after she had moved on to
the next phase of her career. The fiery point
guard, who played for two seasons with her
older sister Barbara, averaged 7.4 points, 5.8
assists, 3.7 rebounds and 4.7 steals per game.
Through her senior season at St. Joseph’s,
Black led the squad three times in assists and
all four times in steals. Her records for steals
in a game (12), in a season (153), and for her

Softball). She is a 1,000 point scorer in Basketball and is a member of the Archbishop
Wood Athletic Hall of Fame.
career (572) still top the Hawks’ women’s
charts. Black dealt 718 assists, which
remained the record for a decade until
surpassed by Angela Zampella.
These numbers, of course, turned into
accolades. Black was inducted into the
Big Five Hall of Fame as well as the St.
Joseph’s women’s basketball and athletics
Halls of Fame in addition to tonight’s
honor. She was Big Five player of the year
as a senior.
Black, who helped lead the Hawks to
four straight NCAA tournaments, was
a multi-named honoree to various AllAtlantic 10 squads and, while Penn State
was a member of the conference, her
battles on the court with the legendary
Suzie McConnell-Serio were worth the
price of admission.
“She was a tough defender, in college
and the WNBA” says McConnell-Serio,
who now coaches Duquesne in the
Atlantic 10. “Just a bundle of energy. And
she was a great point guard, also. Just
fantastic on both defense and offense.”
Growing up, Black modeled her style
in terms of determination after Phillies
baseball great Pete Rose. “I liked the way
he played—you know, Charlie Hustle and
all that,” Black said.

Jeffrey Thomas McDonald, Class of 2013
t gives me great pleasure to share with the
Young Heroes Award Committee information
about Jeffrey McDonald.
While Jeffrey was in elementary school
he underwent a common orthopedic surgery
for a sports-related injury to his leg. However,
things went terribly wrong and Jeff developed
compartmental syndrome, a condition which led
to chronic and constant pain. In the spring of
2011, Jeff approached his parents with a request
to have his leg amputated. His parents were
stunned by this request but Jeff had done a great
deal of research and put a tremendous amount
of thought into this request. Jeff was taking
pain killers on a daily basis, had gone through
a number of surgeries and had many doctors’
visits each year. He felt that his future would be negatively impacted
by this condition. He expressed a concern for his health, his future
work life and most of all how he would function as a parent. Jeff
believed that he would never be able to be the kind of adult he
envisioned if he continued with the pain. After many months of soul
searching, consultations and psychological evaluations, Jeff had his
leg amputated below the knee in October 2011.
Jeff returned to school as quickly as possible but not before he
participated in a walk for brain cancer research in support of one
of his friends. This type of selfless behavior is what qualifies Jeff as
a hero. Jeff’s decision to have his leg amputated stemmed from his
concern for how his condition would impact others in his life. Jeff
worried about the stress his chronic condition had put on his family.
He wondered how he could be a trusted and reliable worker if he had
to periodically undergo additional procedures. Jeff worried about
what kind of a father he would be if he was in too much pain to play
with his children. Continued use of pain killers caused Jeff concern
about his future health.
Jeff is an inspiration to all of his classmates.
He accepted his disability and has made it a
positive aspect. Jeff does not expect any special
treatment. He participates in the daily activities
of the school and has served as the manager of
the baseball team.
Jeff realizes that he is lucky. Health
insurance covers very little of a prosthetic
limb. His leg cost approximately $20,000 and
insurance paid $1200.00. The McDonald family
has made the sacrifices necessary to provide
Jeff with the best possible care. But Jeff has met
many other young people who are not as lucky.
On June 8th, Jeff helped organize a school wide
walk to raise money for prosthetic limbs. Prior
to the walk, Jeff, dressed in shorts which revealed his prosthetic leg
publically for the first time, addressed the student body. He discussed
the challenges faced by young children who continually outgrow
their artificial limbs, the costs to families who lack health insurance
or whose health insurance comes nowhere near the cost of the limbs
and who do not have the financial resources Jeff’s family has.
The application for the Young Heroes Award lists a number of
different categories. Jeff fits into a number of them. However, when
one thinks of a hero, how Jeffrey McDonald faced his handicap and
turned a tragic situation into one in which he helps other people truly
epitomizes a hero.
I am proud to nominate Jeffrey McDonald for the Young Heroes
Award. He is truly a hero in every sense of the word. Archbishop
Wood High School has been positively impacted not only by Jeff’s
work to raise money for prosthetics but by his presence each day as
an inspiration to all our students.

Q & A with Kim Davidow, Class of 2005
Alumni
Golf Classic
Breaks
Records
Kimberly Davidow ’05 is enjoying her work as a reporter at WFMZ
TV News. Kim answered some questions about her career.
How did you get started in television?
My involvement in television first began at Wood. Mr. Joseph
Velten brought me on board to read the morning announcements
during homeroom beginning my junior year. “Good Morning Wood.
Today’s an A-bell day 1.” I was that chipper girl that seemed almost
too happy at 7:15 in the morning, while my classmates probably
had their heads on their desk trying to get some extra sleep before
first period. If you were to ask me seven years ago what I thought
my career would be, you would have gotten a different response.
Becoming involved in television news wasn’t at the top of my list.

Where you involved in the Wood Community as a
student?
I was very involved in several of the school’s clubs and
organizations. I loved the opportunities of meeting new people and
hopefully being able to discover a quality about myself that I never
knew existed. One of my fondest memories at Wood was being
involved in the school’s plays. I loved performing on stage because
I thrived on the energy from the audience. Also, I absolutely loved
dancing. When I graduated from Wood in 2005, I was initially
trying to pursue a career in theatre. For two semesters, I attended a
university in Center Valley, Pa that had an excellent theatre program.
Yet, I felt myself being pulled toward another direction. Ultimately, I
decided to take a leap of faith, trust my instincts and figure out why I
was being pulled towards the field of Communication.
Did you make the right choice?
The Fall of my sophomore year of college was a new chapter in
my life and an exciting one. I was living in Philadelphia and attending
La Salle University. I became heavily involved in the university’s
television station....taking several courses in media production,
video editing, journalism, television writing, among others. I loved
every single moment of my college experience. I felt right at home
in the Communication Department and wouldn’t mind being there
for several hours a day with my friends working on the university’s
television programs. I tried my very best to make the most out of
my experiences by networking heavily through my internships and
attending broadcasting workshops in Philadelphia. During one of those
workshops, I ended up connecting with a producer who eventually
helped me get my foot in the door into the industry.
What was your first job?
My first reporting job was for an internet-television program
called CareerTV. Their studio was based in Philadelphia. While
attending school full-time, I had the opportunity to travel to several

cities reporting stories about how college graduates and young
adults can land jobs with Fortune 500 companies. Landing my first
job in television news, however, wasn’t easy. In fact, it was one of
the most stressful times in my life. The economic recession was at
its peak in 2009. The jobs were extremely scarce and competitive.
I was terrified that I would never have the opportunity to work in
television. After six long months of searching, I was offered my first
job as a television news anchor, reporter and producer for WETMTV, an NBC affiliate located in Elmira, New York.

After about a year working in Elmira, I was offered a reporter
position at WFMZ-TV, Channel 69 News, based in Allentown, Pa. I
currently work as a reporter there.
My job at WFMZ has allowed me the opportunity to travel to
Ecuador. I covered a story highlighting a Peace Corps volunteer
from Berks County who helped women in a remote coastal village
become more independent. I’ve covered stories ranging from triple
homicides, robberies, and politics, to one woman who recently
celebrated 90 years being a Girl Scout.
In August, I was nominated for my first Emmy Award on behalf
of the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences for my oncamera reporting...specifically for my features/human interest stories.
Being a news reporter isn’t glamorous. It can be dangerous. I’ve
been cursed at, practically spit on, and told that I am a worthless
human being. I try to stay motivated in this profession because many
people watch the news, hoping the information being reported is
accurate. When viewers watch my stories, I want viewers to trust my
work and for them to know that given the strict deadlines, I’ve have
reported the facts from all sides to the best of my ability.

Debbie Black
Continued from page 4
She is also a member of the Bucks County chapter of the
Pennsylvania Sports Hall of Fame.
Following her collegiate career, Black went to Australia to play
for the Tasmanian Islanders for eight years, and twice led them to
national titles. This may be the name of that team, but when she
returned to become a pro in the United States, many nicknamed her
“The Tasmanian Devil” because of her tenacity on defense.
When the American Basketball League was forming in the
spring of 1996, she flew back to Atlanta to the combine that would
determine 100 or so candidates for the draft.
While she was Down Under, the women’s game here was
developing in popularity and Black took a modest approach at the
combine. “I think I could contribute a little something off the bench,
help the team a little,” Black said at the time.
Black is the only professional female basketball
player to have accomplished, and is one of very
few basketball players (male or female) ever to
accomplish a quadruple double (10 points, 14
rebounds, 12 assists, 10 steals); she accomplished
this feat against the Atlanta Glory on Dec. 8, 1996.
Wikipedia
She was chosen by the Colorado Xplosion and after a few games
coming off the bench, Black was made a starter. She was an allstar both years the ABL existed and led the league in career steals
(330) and finished second in career assists (608). One night in her
first ABL season, Black posted a quadruple double (10 points, 14
rebounds, 12 assists, 10 steals) while playing through an injury.
She continued her notoriety for six seasons in the WNBA. Black
played on three WNBA teams and retired as one of the more popular
players on the Connecticut Sun after the 2004 season. In 2001, she
was named the league’s defensive player of the year at the age of 35.
Her court duels with the New York Liberty’s Teresa
Weatherspoon, the former Louisiana Tech star, were so intense that
the Madison Square Garden crowd would emphatically boo Black’s
name when the opposition starting lineup was announced.
Since then, Black has taken her skills to the sidelines where she
has helped Foster keep the Buckeyes in the national rankings. After
this season, she says, she will look for her own college program
to coach. A team full of Debbie Black clones? Now there’s a scary
thought. But one that would be quite entertaining, nonetheless.

We remain so very grateful to our parents who actively support our mission here at Archbishop Wood. In addition to fulfilling their tuition
obligations, many current parents volunteer in the Parents Association, booster clubs, in the athletic and fine arts departments as well as in the
Advancement Office. Over 20% have donated this year which enables Wood to continued being one of the top schools in the area. We are also
grateful to the Parents of Alumni who continue to support Wood even though their children have graduated.

Wood Vikings
Partner Again with
the Vincentians
B
lest be the tie that binds.
This phrase rings so
true for the connection
that the Vincentians had and
continue to have at Archbishop
Wood 36 years after they first
came to the school in 1976.
Back then it was known as
for Boys where students first
came to know the Vincentians’
charism during the 10 years they
taught at the school.
Do you recognize Fr. Sy in this
picture? Do you remember Fr.
Shea, Fr. Maher, Fr. O’Connell,
Fr. Carroll, and Fr. Pieber to name
just a few of the 24 Vincentian
priests who served at Archbishop
Wood High School for Boys?
You may be asking yourself
where they are now. Fr. Sy is the
pastor of St. Vincent’s Parish
in Germantown. Fr. Maher is in
Rome, Fathers Shea and Pieber
are at the Miraculous Medal,
Fr. Carroll is the Provincial
Superior of the U.S. Eastern
Province of Vincentians, and Fr.
O’Connell is Bishop of Trenton.
Fr. Shea continues to say mass at
Archbishop Wood and Fr. Sy will

formation of future vocations.
Three people connected to
Archbishop Wood are already
involved in a Philadelphia
Committee that was created
to help with the Vincentian
Endowment Challenge. Patrick
Glemser, a 1982 Archbishop
Wood alumnus (his children
attended and still attend
Archbishop Wood), Joe Lesenko,
a parent of an Archbishop Wood
student, along with former
Archbishop Wood faculty
member Fr. Sy Peterka, C.M.
(1976-82) are offering their time
and support to Fr. Miles Heinen,
C.M. (Executive Director
of the Vincentian Solidarity
Office) with the Vincentian
Endowment Challenge.
We encourage you contact
Archbishop Wood alumnus
Patrick Glemser (patglemser@
yahoo.com) who is helping with
the effort or Fr. Miles in the
Vincentian Solidarity Office
([email protected] or 215-7132432). Or you can donate right
here and make a difference at

Philly Committee for the Vincentian Endowment Challenge
L to R: Patrick Glemser ’82, Fr. Sy Peterka, C.M., Fr. Miles Heinen, C.M., Joe
Lesenko, and Teresa Niedda
be celebrating mass in 2013.
Many of you who were educated by the Vincentians fondly
remember your experiences and
have a personal connection to the
Vincentians. They were involved
in your daily lives, attended various events, and were concerned
about your spirituality.
The Vincentians are trying to
raise funds to help them in their
work in developing countries in
Africa, Asia, Latin America, and
Eastern Europe to become more
financially stable through the
creation of endowments.
We are asking you to
give back to the Vincentians
and make a donation to the
Vincentian Endowment
Challenge. This is a great
opportunity for the alumni of
to stay connected with the
Vincentians and support their
work with the poor and the
Vincentian
Endowment
Challenge
