Notre Dame is set to play in the ACC women’s tennis tournament this week, beginning play Wednesday against Pittsburgh in Rome, Georgia. The Irish (16-8, 7-7 ACC), seeded 10th, enter the conference tournament on a five-match losing streak after losses to tough conference opponents No. 12 Duke, No. 5 North Carolina, Florida State, No. 8 Georgia

Notre Dame continued its midseason resurgence this weekend, sweeping Georgia Tech in an ACC series at Frank Eck Stadium to move within one win of .500 in the league. The Irish (13-17, 7-8 ACC) came from behind to win Friday’s series opener, overcoming a 2-0 deficit to win 4-3. After Georgia Tech (16-14, 4-11) got

With fewer than four minutes to play and the shot clock nearing zero Sunday night, Notre Dame had nothing going offensively. The Irish had been held to just 18 points in the second half, and if you weren’t junior forward Bonzie Colson, you were struggling from the field. Perhaps fittingly, then, it took a desperation heave to break

Last month, Notre Dame traveled to Atlanta and was stymied by Georgia Tech’s defensive sets, shooting just 40 percent from the field in a 62-60, buzzer-beater loss. At Purcell Pavilion this Saturday, the No. 21 Irish (21-7, 10-5 ACC) will have a chance to avenge a loss for the second time this year, hosting the Yellow Jackets

It’s not unusual to see No. 7 Notre Dame start a game slowly before pulling away for a comfortable win. Trailing before the game even tips off is a little less common. Yet neither a pre-game technical or a slow first quarter did much to stop the Irish (23-3, 11-1 ACC) running out as easy

The single-game road trip for the Irish ended in devastating fashion at Georgia Tech, as junior guard Matt Farrell missed a jumper with seven seconds remaining, giving the Yellow Jackets (13-8, 5-4 ACC) just enough time to race down the court to connect on a layup as time expired, putting the final score at 62-60.

After suffering its largest defeat of the season against No. 12 Virginia, No. 14 Notre Dame travels to Atlanta on Saturday to take on Georgia Tech. Looking at this matchup in the preseason, it wouldn’t have been far-fetched to predict this was one of the few sure-fire wins the Irish (17-4, ACC 6-2) could circle on its schedule. In

Notre Dame split its road trip over the weekend, coming away with a sweep of Clemson while falling short against Georgia Tech. The Irish (20-10, 11-7 ACC) finishing the year with a strong 12-4 record away from Purcell Pavilion, including a 4-0 record at neutral-site games. In the first game of the weekend, Notre Dame visited

Notre Dame will have the chance to continue its early season success this weekend with the No. 12 men’s team taking on Purdue, while the No. 10 women’s team will be facing Purdue, Miami and Rutgers. The team has remained undefeated on both the men’s and women’s sides, including a big win in the meet against

Notre Dame participated in the ACC tournament last week at the Cary Tennis Center in Cary, North Carolina. The Irish (14-13, 5-9) beat Pittsburgh, 4-0, in the first round Wednesday and then got past Clemson, 4-1, in the second round Thursday before falling to Georgia Tech, 4-0, in the quarterfinals Friday. In Wednesday’s singles competition against
