ND's Mike Brey is Now 5 - 1 vs. Duke's Coach K


Folks, I will admit I didn't believe...

Notre Dame was down 16 points in the second half to Duke -- yet, the Fighting Irish came back to tie the game and send it into OT -- winning 84 - 79 to advance to tomorrow vs. North Carolina.

WOW!

The win -- Notre Dame's fifth over Duke in six ACC games since the Irish joined the ACC three years ago -- puts Mike Brey now 5 - 1 vs. his mentor Coach K.  No other Duke assistant has beaten Coach K --- think about that...

The Naismith HS National Player of the Year!


Is none other than Jackie Young from Princeton High School (Princeton, IN) -- a member of Notre Dame's incoming recruiting class!  Erin Boley -- Jackie's future teammate at ND was one of the five finalists for this honor!

Muffet just reloads!

Jackie is the third Notre Dame women's basketball player to earn this honor -- Skylar Diggins in 2009 and Michelle Marciniak in 1991 (who transferred to Tennessee after one season).

Congratulations Jackie!
