A Star Is Born Today -- Pat Connaughton!


He wears #24 for Mike Brey's Fighting Irish and his best sport might just be baseball (drafted out of high school by the San Diego Padres) -- but today, Pat Connaughton was one of the top college basketball players in the country!

  • 23 points
  • 5 for 8 from behind the three-point line
  • 11 rebounds
  • 3 assists
  • 1 steal
  • 2 blocks
  • And, he OWNED every loose ball he was around!

Not bad for a 6' - 5" freshman out of St. John's Prep in Arlington, MA.

Congratulations Pat -- you're excelling on one of the biggest stages in sport!
