After rocky start, Irish top Volunteers on the road

Charlotte Edmonds | Friday, January 25, 2019

In an evening with no shortage of talent, experience won out as No. 1 Notre Dame topped Tennessee on the road 77-62. The matchup had a lot at stake for both teams. For the Volunteers (12-7, 1-5 SEC) — who entered the game on a five-game losing streak and were in desperate need of a

Irish return to Knoxville, Tennessee, to take on perennial rival

Elizabeth Greason | Thursday, January 24, 2019

The Irish head south on Thursday to defend one of the most important victories of their national championship season: a come-from-behind win over Tennessee on Jan. 18, 2018 after being down by as many as 23 points. The Volunteers (12-6, 1-5 SEC) dropped out of the top-25 this week after losing their fifth-straight game. However,

No. 5 Irish overcome largest deficit in program history to take down No. 6 Tennessee

Elizabeth Greason | Friday, January 19, 2018

“I don’t think I’ve ever seen a better comeback.” That was Irish head coach Muffet McGraw’s sentiment in her postgame press conference after her squad rallied from a 23-point deficit to take down No. 6 Tennessee, 84-70. And it was the best comeback she had ever seen — the largest comeback in program history. The

No. 5 Notre Dame readies to host No. 6 Tennessee

Daniel O'Boyle | Thursday, January 18, 2018

Two of the most successful programs in women’s basketball history will face off Thursday, as No. 5 Notre Dame hosts No. 6 Tennessee at Purcell Pavilion. For the Irish (16-2, 5-1 ACC), the game will be a chance for Irish head coach Muffet McGraw’s squad to test itself again against top-10 opposition, after last week’s

Ivey: Schiano controversy shows power of social media

Michael Ivey | Wednesday, November 29, 2017

It’s that wonderful time of year. That time of year when the weather gets colder and we start seeing Christmas lights decorating neighborhood houses. Of course, I am talking about the college football coaching carousel season. Yes, that wonderful three to four week period beginning in late November through the early part of December where

Surprising Irish loss forces introspection ahead of visit to Boston College

Renee Griffin | Thursday, January 19, 2017

Notre Dame head coach Muffet McGraw was in an unfamiliar position ahead of Thursday’s matchup with Boston College: taking the temperature of a team that had just suffered its third regular-season loss. Under McGraw’s leadership, a Notre Dame squad had not lost more than two games in the regular season since going 24-6 in 2010-11. That

Notre Dame struggles during fourth quarter in upset defeat at Tennessee

Benjamin Padanilam | Wednesday, January 18, 2017

Despite leading by as many as 15 points in the second half, Notre Dame faltered down the stretch at Tennessee and fell 71-69, as the Volunteers sunk a go-ahead jumper in the closing seconds. The sixth-ranked Irish (14-3, 4-1 ACC) led by 15 points after scoring the first basket of the second half and held

Balanced offense leads Irish over Volunteers

Mary Green | Tuesday, January 19, 2016

The first 20 times Notre Dame faced Tennessee, the Lady Volunteers came away with a win in each game. But Irish head coach Muffet McGraw said she much prefers to think about the last six times, all of which Notre Dame has won, including a 79-66 victory Monday night at Purcell Pavilion. The No. 3

ND welcomes taller Lady Vols to Purcell Pavilion

Greg Hadley | Monday, January 18, 2016

For its final nonconference game of the year, No. 3 Notre Dame hosts a familiar foe Monday night at Purcell Pavilion. No. 13 Tennessee and Notre Dame have played each other every year for the past five seasons. As two of the most storied programs in women’s basketball, the teams have played 25 times before, but as of late, the Irish

Notre Dame uses strong second quarter to top Boston College

Greg Hadley | Friday, January 15, 2016

It was never too close but never a blowout either, as No. 3 Notre Dame was bogged down in a slow-paced game against Boston College on the road Thursday night but held on for the 63-50 win. The Irish (16-1, 5-0 ACC) never trailed against the Eagles (12-4, 0-3), seizing the lead 49 seconds into
