After a big 12-2 win over Eastern Michigan on Wednesday,  No. 25 Notre Dame was prepared to take the field again Thursday against No. 23 Northwestern. Mother Nature, however, had different plans as the weather once again prevented the Irish (20-7, 3-3 ACC) from playing.

The matchup between the Irish and the Wildcats (18-6, 2-1 Big Ten) was postponed for the foreseeable future. The inclement weather also torpedoed the Irish plans to take on Syracuse as well, with their weekend series against the Orange (12-15, 5-4 ACC) cancelled as well. All told, the Irish have had seven games cancelled this season due to weather, including four at home.

The Irish are tentatively scheduled to resume play April 2, against Michigan State at Melissa Cook Stadium. The first pitch is scheduled for 6 p.m..
