Congratulations to Notre Dame senior, Luke Harangody, who was drafted last night by the Boston Celtics in the second round of the 2010 NBA Draft -- 52nd pick overall! 'Gody' is the first Irish player drafted by the Celtics in the past 29 years -- Tracy Jackson was the last Notre Dame player to go to Boston, in the 1981 NBA Draft, when he was also drafted in the second round. Luke is the first Notre Dame basketball player to be named All Big East three consecutive seasons and was the leading scorer and rebounder in the Big East Conference in consecutive years. A graduate of Andrean High School in Merrillville, Indiana -- Harangody leaves Notre Dame as one of it's all time greats. Couldn't be happier for Luke and his family!
