Through seven games of non-conference play, it would be difficult to call Notre Dame women’s soccer’s season anything but a roaring success. The team has notched a perfect 7-0-0 record, with every win coming by a multiple goal margin. The defense has allowed just three goals across 630 minutes of play. And with ACC play

A week ago, the vibe was quite different surrounding the Notre Dame baseball team. The Irish were ranked No. 1 and riding a ten-game winning streak into an ACC series with Louisville. There, however, the Cardinals put the Irish on notice. A 12-1 record, which included seven wins against non-Power-5 competition didn’t win them any

As Notre Dame prepares to descend upon Lane Stadium, the attitude in Blacksburg is one of opportunity. The Hokies (3-1) started their season strong, defeating then No. 10 UNC in their home opener, 17-10. They then beat Middle Tennessee at home 35-14, the next week. In Week 3, Virginia Tech went on the road to

This weekend sucked. I will not lie about that. To be a student on campus when the home streak broke was not easy. Although, I’m sure it couldn’t have been easy to be a player or even a coach. I just don’t know that the team was fully prepared to face a team like Cincinnati
