Andrew McGuinness, J.J. Post, Tyler Reidy, Ryan Murphy and Jacob Irons | Friday, August 18, 2023

Notre Dame fall sports are officially back. Irish women’s soccer kicked off their season against Milwaukee on Thursday, and men’s soccer, volleyball, cross country and football will soon follow suit with their season openers. While The Observer will provide plenty of coverage on the start of the football season, football is far from the only

Irish to face Gamecocks in Paris to begin 2023-24 season

Observer Sports Staff | Thursday, April 13, 2023

While many college basketball teams begin their seasons with a slate of home games against mid-major, unformidable opponents, Notre Dame women’s basketball will change things up to begin its 2023-24 campaign. The Irish traveled to St. Louis to take on Cal in the first-ever Citi Shamrock Classic. Playing in head coach Niele Ivey’s hometown, the

Irish fall to Terrapins in Sweet Sixteen

Olivia Schatz | Saturday, March 25, 2023

The Fighting Irish traveled to Greenville, South Carolina to take on the second-seeded Terrapins. After a season plagued with injuries, the Irish were determined to prove their worth. However, it was Maryland who would ultimately pull ahead and win 76-59. The Terrapins got out on an early lead, with a 5-0 run. Junior forward Maddy

Irish ready for high-stakes rematch against Maryland in Sweet 16

Andrew McGuinness | Friday, March 24, 2023

Triumph was in the air Sunday afternoon after the final buzzer sounded. Notre Dame had not only just knocked off Mississippi State in a 53-48 nail-biter to reach their second straight Sweet 16, but also chalked up yet another victory at Purcell Pavilion. Winning in South Bend has almost felt like a guarantee ever since

One convincing, one close victory bring Irish to Sweet 16

Andrew McGuinness | Tuesday, March 21, 2023

One year ago, Notre Dame women’s basketball suffered a heartbreaking loss in the Sweet 16. The Irish literally and figuratively threw away their chances at reaching the Elite Eight with a last-second turnover that sealed a 66-63 loss to North Carolina State. It was the type of loss that sits with a team long after

Irish fall short of Cardinal sweep and ACC title without Miles

Mannion McGinley | Monday, March 6, 2023

Notre Dame women’s basketball didn’t look like the same team when they took on the Louisville Cardinals Saturday at noon. Scoring only 15 points in the first half, the Irish fell 64-38 in the semifinals of the 2023 ACC Tournament. Notre Dame saw the Louisville Cardinals twice before in the regular season. The wins came

Post: Ivey needed to be near-perfect Sunday to capture ACC. She was.

J.J. Post | Monday, February 27, 2023

Notre Dame women’s basketball was always bound to have an uniquely small rotation this year. That’s what happens when you only carry ten scholarship players. Ivey was well aware of the smaller roster she was constructing, placing an emphasis on quality trumping quantity in her squad. The Irish bench might have been shorter than that

Irish women’s basketball wins fifth straight against Georgia Tech

J.J. Post | Friday, February 24, 2023

On Thursday night, Notre Dame women’s basketball extended their winning streak to five, downing Georgia Tech 76-53.  Coming off a 40-point triumph over Pittsburgh on Sunday, the Irish entered Purcell Pavilion looking to notch another “style points” win against a Yellow Jackets squad currently sitting 14th in the ACC. Perhaps too focused on style, Notre

Irish take on Yellow Jackets in final home game

J.J. Post | Thursday, February 23, 2023

Notre Dame women’s basketball will return to Purcell Pavilion Thursday night following a brief weekend stint on the road in Pittsburgh. The return will come on the back of what was likely the Irish’s best performance of 2023 thus far. After a stretch of several games where it felt as if Notre Dame was struggling

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.
