How do you score 120 points in a college basketball game against a legitimate Division 1 program?
Well, Muffet McGraw's #2 ranked team know the answer to that question!
Last night the Lady Irish roared pass Pittsburgh 120 - 44. And, to think this isn't the highest scoring night for Notre Dame this season. That took place 19 days ago when the Irish scored 124 in a rout of Mercer in Atlanta.
Last night's victory margin -- 76 points is the largest ever for ND over a Big East opponent. The Irish set or tied six school records:
- Most field goals made: 48 -- also a Big East record for most field goals made in the regular season, old record was 46 by Providence back in 1986
- Margin of victory in Big East game: 76 points
- Margin of victory in a home game: 76 points (tied a record set last January)
- Most points in a home game: 120 points
- Most points in a Big East game: 120 points
- Most players in double figures: Eight (tied a record set in 2009)
