Notre Dame softball will return to ACC play this weekend when they square off against Pittsburgh in South Bend. The Irish are looking to find momentum following a dominant 15-0 showing against IUPUI Tuesday. The offensive explosion was much needed for a Notre Dame squad that struggled over the weekend against Syracuse. After a series-opening

Tuesday afternoon, Notre Dame softball will look to get back to winning ways with a home matchup against IUPUI. The Irish are coming off a showing in which they made recent program history over the weekend. Notre Dame tied their first game since 2008 — their first 0-0 tie since 1990 — Sunday night against

Over Notre Dame softball’s last four regular seasons, there have been two constants. First, the Irish have largely handled business against their ACC foes. Even though the conference is usually regarded as one of the sport’s best, the Irish have an impressive 59-28 mark in conference play since 2019. The only thing more consistent than

The ACC women’s basketball tournament will start in Greensboro, North Carolina Wednesday afternoon. Fresh off of a conference-title win over Louisville on Sunday, Notre Dame will enter the tournament holding the top overall seed. Rounding out the upper echelon of the bracket is No. 2-seed Duke, No. 3-seed Virginia Tech and aforementioned No. 4-seed Louisville.

In summer of 2021, no one could get enough of then junior linebacker Marist Liufau. He had flashes of of success in camp, became the talk of the town and was seemingly unblockable. Then, his season ended before it could start. Liufau suffered a broken ankle midway through camp, ultimately keeping him from a season’s

Let me start off this edition of Observer on the Ground with a quick disclaimer. I love traveling to cover Notre Dame football. It’s a privilege, and the experience is always worth it. That being said, get me the [insert expletive of choice] out of Syracuse, New York, and never send me back. Logistically, the

Notre Dame got back on track last weekend with a victory over UNLV. But the Irish face a much stiffer test this weekend as they travel to Syracuse to face the Orange at the JMA Wireless Dome. Syracuse started the season 6-0, surging into the top-15 and shocking many observers after they were picked to

Aidan Thomas – Sports Editor I have gone back and forth on this pick a lot. Notre Dame is 4-3 outright as an underdog in ACC games under their current arrangement with the conference. They’re 6-1 against the spread. The Irish are 2-1 outright and 3-0 against the spread away from Notre Dame Stadium this

Whatever happens in Saturday’s game between Notre Dame and No. 16 Syracuse at JMA Wireless Dome, expect it to be crazy. The Irish have already been through more twists than turns through seven games this year than they have in some seven-year stretches in its history. The Orange are in fairly uncharted territory, at least

Notre Dame went back on the road snagging their first two ACC wins, sweeping Syracuse 3-0 on Friday and beating Boston College 3-1 on Sunday. It was a much-needed bounce-back weekend for Notre Dame and first-year head coach Salima Rockwell after a disappointing homestand where they lost against Georgia Tech and Clemson. Syracuse Notre Dame
