No. 2 Notre Dame clinched the No. 1 seed for the ACC tournament and a share of the regular season conference title with its 71-52 victory over Clemson last night. The Irish took the lead after only seven seconds, with a three-pointer from freshman guard Michaela Mabrey, and did not relinquish it for the rest

Since joining the ACC for the 2013-2014 season, Notre Dame has boasted a 48-1 record in conference play. On Sunday, the No. 3 Irish (23-1, 11-0 ACC) will face the only team to blemish that record when they welcome No. 19 Miami to Purcell Pavilion. That defeat came in January 2015 in Coral Gables, Florida, with the Hurricanes winning by

This past Monday, No. 1 Connecticut did what it does best and blew out No. 2 South Carolina, 66-54, on the road, never trailing the entire way. That result means, in all likelihood, No. 3 Notre Dame will move up to take the Gamecocks spot as the second-best team in the country. The Irish (23-1,

It wasn’t a buzzer-beating 3 or a half-court miracle heave, but No. 3 Notre Dame’s last field goal in Sunday’s matchup with No. 13 Louisville was the one it needed. The Irish (23-1, 11-0 ACC) had finally taken a one-point lead over the Cardinals (18-6, 10-1) after trailing for nearly 32 minutes, but the pressure

Stuck in the midst of a mini-shooting slump, No. 3 Notre Dame took comfort in the familiar Thursday night, routing North Carolina State, 82-46, at Purcell Pavilion. Graduate student guard Madison Cable led the Irish (22-1, 10-0 ACC) with 25 points, which tied her career high, and seven rebounds, while junior guard Lindsay Allen posted

No. 3 Notre Dame is 47-1 against ACC opponents since joining the conference a little more than two years ago, but for much of the second half of Monday’s game against Duke, a second loss looked like a very real possibility for the Irish. That is, until graduate student guard Madison Cable nailed a 3-pointer from

Halfway through the ACC conference schedule, the fun begins now for No. 3 Notre Dame. Starting with Monday night’s road clash with perennial power Duke, the Irish (20-1, 8-0 ACC) will enter a three-week long stretch in which they will face the very best the conference has to offer. Over the course of six games,

It’s been a long time since Notre Dame has scored 54 or fewer points and still managed to scrape out a win. Ten years and two days, to be exact. On Jan. 21, 2006, Notre Dame topped Georgetown on the road, 54-42. Thursday night, the third-ranked Irish got the exact same result, this time holding

No. 3 Notre Dame travels to Atlanta to face Georgia Tech on Thursday, a rematch of both teams’ 2015-2016 conference opener. The Irish (19-1, 7-0 ACC) are coming off an impressive three-game home stretch, in which they defeated No. 19 Tennessee before putting up dominant defensive performances against conference opponents Syracuse and Virginia Tech, who were both held

Michaela Mabrey and Madison Cable weren’t much of 3-point shooters during their rookie seasons. In the 2012-2013 campaign, both guards averaged under two attempts per game and shot below 36 percent. That season, the Irish converted 34 percent of their attempts from long range, ranking 41st in the nation. Three years later, the senior Mabrey and
