When Mike Monaco arrived on Notre Dame’s campus as a freshman in August of 2011, he knew he wanted to work in sports. He had a clear role model for the path he wanted to follow — but it was not Bob Costas or Al Michaels or any of the famous sports broadcasters he grew up listening to, nor the ones that he’s worked alongside of in his time on the mic.
If you think about it, there is a long history of American sitcoms about aliens. “My Favorite Martian,” “ALF,” “Mork & Mindy” and maybe most notably “3rd Rock from the Sun” all focus on the ways space aliens adjust to American society and the humans they endear themselves to. The sub-genre has a surprisingly long history, and what might have been the best of them ended ten years ago this week.
After an early season slip-up in overtime against Georgetown, the Notre Dame men’s lacrosse team has played like the undisputed best team in the country. Since the loss, the Irish have rattled off five straight victories over several elite opponents, including No. 5 Maryland, No. 7 Syracuse and No. 4 Duke last Sunday.
After a 3-2 win over Western Michigan on Tuesday, the Notre Dame softball team is now 23-14 overall on the season and 7-8 in ACC play. The Irish look ahead to playing the No. 18 Florida State Seminoles, who are 28-10 overall and 9-3 in conference play.

The Free Application for Student Aid (FAFSA) for many students is the key to their education. For junior Phoenix McClellan, the FAFSA is now a roadblock for her to access vital information allowing her to stay in school.
Homelessness today recasts a major social problem. As a form of poverty lived in extremis, it tears at the heart of our nation’s democratic beliefs and ruptures the body of our social welfare state. Without question, the forms of homelessness have changed over the past 150 years, but the underlying structure has remained the same: alienation, destitution and illness (physical, mental, spiritual). Not since the depression years of the 1890s and 1930s has there been such fervent concern over the conditions and causes of homelessness.
I met my best friend in my seventh grade math class. The new kid in a new middle school, my only goal for the day was to make a friend. So I looked to the girl to my right and said, “Hi! My name’s Aynslee, what’s yours?”
Angélique Gakoko Pitteloud, a documentary filmmaker, writer and a survivor of the Rwandan genocide, and her husband, the Swiss ambassador to the United States, Jacques Pitteloud, spoke in the Hesburgh Center for International Studies auditorium Tuesday afternoon about the legacy of the Rwandan genocide. This year marks the 30th anniversary of the genocide in which approximately 800,000 of the minority Tutsi ethnic group were massacred during a roughly 100-day period in 1994.
It’s been a special month for Notre Dame women’s lacrosse. Since dropping a second consecutive home game to Virginia on March 9, the Irish have locked into form, winning six consecutive games since 2020. Perhaps more impressively, Notre Dame hasn’t had a six-game winning streak run this late into the season in 20 years.
Notre Dame rowing enjoyed a productive second weekend of its 2024 season, traveling to both the Lubbers Cup Regatta and the San Diego Crew Classic. The former event, held in Grand Rapids, Michigan, took place on Saturday, while the latter in San Diego, California, carried on to Sunday.
To win 18 consecutive midweek games across three seasons, a softball team must have unlikely heroes step up here and there. For Notre Dame, who has accomplished that feat, those improbable moments have come in bunches recently.
So far this year, Notre Dame’s Not-So-Royal Shakespeare Co. has produced “Love’s Labor’s Lost” (essentially a 1598 romcom) as well as “Rodeo and Juliet” (a spaghetti western reimagining of the original play). They do this sort of thing — light comedy and melodrama — really well. So when they announced their intention to perform “Richard III,” I was intrigued. “Richard III” is rife with death and shooting and strangling and poisoning and stabbing and more. Its kill-count? At least 12. I was eager, and nervous, to see how they would handle it.
“We’ve grown a lot since you last saw us,” bassist Danny O’Brien told me while casually crossing his legs and leaning back in a thrifted wooden rocking chair.
The Driver Era, composed of Ross and Rocky Lynch, graced the sold-out Stepan Center with their presence on Friday. After seeing the performance, there is no doubting the talent and star power the group holds, but there is also no doubting that most people in the crowd knew Ross Lynch from his Disney days. When Lynch mentioned what he referred to as “the ‘Teen Beach Movie’ song,” “On My Own,” his solo from “Teen Beach Movie 2,” the crowd went wild.
