A Notre Dame Moment: Composer Libbie Gerry



Music composer Libbie Gerry has never had anyone perform her music. 

That changed this past Monday at the University of Notre Dame when sophomore Alex Mansour performed a dozen of Libbie's songs on the Leighton Concert Hall stage.

That's Libbie sitting in the left hand chair.  What a talent.

UCONN's Length & Strength Too Much for Irish


UCONN Brings an 82 Game Winning Streak...


Will tonight be one more of those "Notre Dame Moments" at Purcell Pavilion where the Fighting Irish stop another streak?

Will this be the night where Notre Dame finally plays with a "full deck" against  UCONN?  We've had a run of unfortunate injuries take place just before we've played the Huskies in the last four or five games...

I'm going to be sitting at mid-court, three rows back -- just a few feet away from ESPN's broadcast team. 

IT IS GOING TO BE GREAT!!!  GO IRISH!!!
