Mike Brey's Fighting Irish beat the Cal Bears tonight 57-44 to earn a spot in Sunday's Championship Final against Wisconsin!
The halftime score of 21-5 (Notre Dame leading) is the lowest combined points score in the first half of a basketball game in NCAA history! The NCAA started keeping track of these kinds of statistics in 1986. For the game, Notre Dame only shot 27.8% from the floor -- one for twenty from the three-point line -- in one of the ugliest offensive games you'll ever see. Yet, on the heels of their Double OT win (89-83) last night over Georgia -- the Irish are now 6-0 on the season and they're in the championship game. Be sure to tune in to ESPN2 on Sunday night at 7 PM EST for the Old Spice Classic Championship game -- and watch the Irish take on the Badgers -- should be fun! Here's a link to the game's box score:
