At this point, it feels like Notre Dame men’s basketball games are following a script. Two weeks ago, the Irish went stride for stride with Georgia Tech all game before faltering in the final seconds. Then the same story played out against Virginia Tech, Duke and Virginia.

On the heels of graduate guard Dara Mabrey’s college career-ending knee injury, No. 7 Notre Dame women’s basketball awaits another challenge as No. 24 Florida State will visit Purcell Pavilion Thursday night in a pivotal ACC matchup.

First-year Macy Gunnell entered Notre Dame Stadium this weekend feeding off the crowd’s energy and looking forward to a fantastic game. She left the field in an ambulance.

It seemed like everyone was watching No. 1 Duke host No. 8 North Carolina on Wednesday night. Then, just thirty seconds into the game, Zion Williamson suffered an injury. The freshman phenom planted hard with his left foot, broke through his Nike shoe and subsequently injured his right knee. The atmosphere of the game deflated
