#3 Notre Dame Beats #17 NC State -- 8 to 4!

Our 3rd ranked Fighting Irish had to go 12 innings tonight to beat the 17th ranked NC State Wolfpack in Raleigh, NC.  It was a come-from-behind win as Notre Dame was down 4 - 0 before scoring their first run in the 7th.

The Irish pitching staff struck out 15 -- shutting the Wolfpack down over the final 9 innings to take the team's record to 10-1 on the season.

This was Game 1 of a three game series this weekend.

Go Irish!

Notre Dame's Two Hits Beat Michigan State

 

The 3rd ranked Fighting Irish of Notre Dame were held to just TWO HITS yesterday in their game vs. Michigan State -- but, the TRIPLE and HOME RUN did the trick!  

Additional facts:  Notre Dame did not strike out.  They walked (twice) or, put it in play.  Which makes "only two hits" quite surprising.  And, I'll bet Notre Dame does not have another game like this all season when they only had 27 at bats in 8 innings.

Truly shocked (and IMPRESSED) we won a game like this.

Notre Dame Fan / NASCAR Legend: The Onion

 

Todd Bodine (AKA "The Onion"), who has won 22 NASCAR CAMPING WORLD TRUCK SERIES races and two (2) Truck Series Championships -- was back at it as he begins his quest to achieve 800 NASCAR starts.

Todd and his wife Janet are wonderful people and huge Notre Dame fans! 

Unfortunately, Todd's Toyota lost control and he hit a wall on lap 89 of last night's 200 lap race in Las Vegas.  He was able to return to the race and ended up finishing 21st in his first start in five years in the Camping World Truck Series.

We may need to get a ND Monogram on Todd's helmet for his next race!

Notre Dame Finishes Third at Watersound Inv.


The Fighting Irish finished in 3rd place at the Watersound Invitational (Palm City Beach, FL) after shooting a final round team score of -4 under par.

The #15 ranked Notre Dame squad finished the tournament with a team score of -6 under par -- beating these ranked opponents:

  • #4 North Carolina by 7 strokes
  • #6 Arkansas by 9 strokes
  • #12 Wake Forest by 26 strokes
  • #26 Clemson by 6 strokes
  • #32 Louisville by 10 strokes
  • #34 NC State by 9 strokes
  • #35 Florida State by 15 strokes
  • #37 Virginia by 25 strokes

The Fighting Irish were led by:

  • 4th place:  Palmer Jackson (-4) -- despite 2 double bogeys on final nine holes
  • 9th place:  Davis Chatfield (-3)
  • 23rd place:  Taichi Kho (+1)

I know Coach Handrigan and his Irish would love to have that first round back -- because Notre Dame was -19 under par for the final two rounds.  Georgia Tech won the tournament with a score of -15 under par for the three day tournament
