Irish set for another top-15 showdown against North Carolina

Andrew McGuinness | Friday, March 31, 2023

This season has presented Notre Dame women’s lacrosse with no shortage of difficult opponents. The Irish have already faced the top two teams in the country in Syracuse and Northwestern, respectively, losing to both. They handed No. 22 Clemson its first loss in program history back on Feb. 25, then crushed No. 20 Duke a

Irish golf teams preparing for postseason with early April tournaments

Andrew McGuinness | Friday, March 31, 2023

April is a massive month for all spring sports teams. And that is certainly the case for both the Notre Dame men’s and women’s golf teams. Both will compete in the ACC Championships later this month, with aspirations of reaching the NCAA Championship as well. But there is still work to do before the postseason

Go Irish, beat imposter syndrome

Andrew McGuinness | Monday, March 27, 2023

What is your first memory? It’s probably something very random. But maybe it provided a hint about the person you will become — your interests, your personality, a glimpse into the future and the past all at once. My first memory is not that. It’s going to preschool or daycare and being excited they had

Irish ready for high-stakes rematch against Maryland in Sweet 16

Andrew McGuinness | Friday, March 24, 2023

Triumph was in the air Sunday afternoon after the final buzzer sounded. Notre Dame had not only just knocked off Mississippi State in a 53-48 nail-biter to reach their second straight Sweet 16, but also chalked up yet another victory at Purcell Pavilion. Winning in South Bend has almost felt like a guarantee ever since

Irish begin home ACC play against Syracuse

Andrew McGuinness | Friday, March 24, 2023

Over Notre Dame softball’s last four regular seasons, there have been two constants. First, the Irish have largely handled business against their ACC foes. Even though the conference is usually regarded as one of the sport’s best, the Irish have an impressive 59-28 mark in conference play since 2019. The only thing more consistent than

Belles tennis, softball and lacrosse in action over break

Andrew McGuinness | Wednesday, March 22, 2023

Spring break was hardly a time for relaxation for Saint Mary’s sports. The Belles tennis, softball and lacrosse teams were all in action, each producing unique storylines over the last week and a half. The Belles tennis team easily had the best break of the three, continuing their red-hot start to 2023. They won all

McGuinness: The power of great sports journalism

Andrew McGuinness | Wednesday, March 22, 2023

The music had faded. My parents had been called. Some 1,100 miles away, more champagne than any college student could fathom was about to be sprayed. The moment that had been 4,014 days in the making had already happened. But there was still one more thing I needed to see for it all to sink

One convincing, one close victory bring Irish to Sweet 16

Andrew McGuinness | Tuesday, March 21, 2023

One year ago, Notre Dame women’s basketball suffered a heartbreaking loss in the Sweet 16. The Irish literally and figuratively threw away their chances at reaching the Elite Eight with a last-second turnover that sealed a 66-63 loss to North Carolina State. It was the type of loss that sits with a team long after

Irish golf nears end of regular season after busy week

Andrew McGuinness | Tuesday, March 21, 2023

Most of Notre Dame’s student body was away during the past week for spring break, and both the men’s and women’s golf teams were no exception. But rather than hitting the sand, the Irish were trying to avoid it. As the ACC Championships reach the ”objects in mirror are closer than they appear” stage of

Four straight Spartan goals send first round series the distance

Andrew McGuinness | Saturday, March 4, 2023

As the horn sounded to signal the end of the first period, there was reason for the capacity crowd at Compton Family Ice Arena to dream big. The Irish entered the evening leading the series 1-0. For the second straight game, after coming out of the gate slow, the Irish turned it up in the

This Thursday, Feb. 16, the 93rd annual Bengal Bou This Thursday, Feb. 16, the 93rd annual Bengal Bouts will begin its preliminary rounds. A men’s boxing tournament that benefits the Holy Cross Mission in Bangladesh, Bengal Bouts seems to perfectly combine two integral aspects of Notre Dame’s identity: a passion for sports and a commitment to social impact.

This week, From the Archives takes a long overdue look at the history of Bengal Bouts. While this tournament predates the Observer by nearly four decades, we uncovered a selection of stories that capture at least a part of the rich history of this Notre Dame tradition.

That game was a heartbreaking loss for a Notre Dame team that had started 6-0 before stumbling down the stretch to a 7-5 record. A bowl game win over LSU salvaged some optimism for the program’s future, but that loss to Northwestern was a shocking result that contributed to one of the more appalling stretches of Irish football in the Brian Kelly era.
