Irish baseball thrashed in midweek battle against Spartans

Adam Akan | Thursday, April 27, 2023

Entering this week, Notre Dame baseball was coming off a weekend of dreams. After sweeping the No. 8 Virginia Cavaliers at Frank Eck Stadium by scores of 10-7, 10-2 and 5-4, the Irish improved their overall record to 23-15 and their conference record to 11-10. Notre Dame was hot, riding a five-game winning streak after

Notre Dame’s magic runs out in quarterfinal loss

Tyler Reidy | Monday, March 6, 2023

The pieces to the puzzle were all there. Playing on home ice with the confidence of back-to-back series wins against top-10 opposition, Notre Dame hockey had its chance to solidify itself among the NCAA tournament field. Friday’s victory put the Irish a win away, but No. 20 Michigan State stormed back Saturday and Sunday to

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

Irish top Spartans in game one

Ryan Murphy | Saturday, March 4, 2023

Game one of the Big Ten first-round series between Michigan State and Notre Dame arrived as advertised on Friday night. After 60 minutes of tight-checking, physical hockey at sold-out Compton Family Ice Arena, the Irish came out on top, winning 1-0 over the visiting Spartans. As expected, the game was more about heroic defense than

Irish seek payback against MSU in Big Ten Tournament

Tyler Reidy | Friday, March 3, 2023

Why has Notre Dame hockey spent the last three weeks in must-win games for its NCAA tournament hopes? Why did it take an improbable series of events to bring the Irish back to Compton Family Ice Arena? The answer: Michigan State. A month ago, the Spartans swept Notre Dame in East Lansing, pinning the Irish

Overtime hero Drew Bavaro leads Irish into postseason

Ryan Murphy | Friday, March 3, 2023

The storied hockey rivalry between Notre Dame and Michigan has produced some iconic late-game heroics over the years. Think of Calle Ridderwall’s overtime goal that sent the upstart Irish to the 2008 national championship in Denver. Perhaps instead Jake Evans’ game-winner with 3.7 seconds left in the 2018 Frozen Four semifinal first comes to mind.

Tyler Reidy | Wednesday, February 22, 2023

One weekend remains in the regular season. Five of the seven Big Ten hockey seeding positions will come down to six games on Friday and Saturday. After taking five of six available points from No. 8 Ohio State two weekends ago, No. 20 Notre Dame is firmly in the mix. The Irish currently sit tied

Irish suffer crushing set-back in sweep to Spartans

Andrew McGuinness and Tyler Reidy | Monday, February 6, 2023

Notre Dame entered this critical weekend in their 2022-23 campaign feeling better about themselves than they arguably have all season. The Irish entered Friday winners of three of their last four and five of their last seven matches. They were coming off their first series sweep since mid-October and their first all season in conference

No. 20 Notre Dame, No. 17 Michigan State meet in major series

Tyler Reidy | Friday, February 3, 2023

Much has changed since Notre Dame hockey hosted Michigan State back in late October. Ranked 12th at the time, the Irish had hoped to solidify themselves among the nation’s top 15; they now sit on the edge of the Top 20, according to USCHO rankings. The Spartans opened the season as an unproven bunch on

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.
