Storylines
u Notre Dame is playing the front end of the
first of two ACC home-and-home series,
with the Fighting Irish also slated to meet
Georgia Tech twice this season.
u Since 1995-96, Notre Dame is 64-14 (.821)
in its first game after a double-digit loss, including a current 11-game winning streak.
F
or a young team like No. 4 Notre Dame,
every situation provides an opportunity for
growth and the Fighting Irish find themselves in another learning scenario, as Notre
Dame looks to bounce back from a tough loss
when it plays host to Atlantic Coast Conference
rival Boston College at 1 p.m. (ET) Sunday at
Purcell Pavilion. The game will be broadcast live
on ESPN3 and the WatchESPN app.
The Fighting Irish (14-2, 2-1) return home
following a 78-63 loss at Miami on Thursday
night. Notre Dame nearly rallied from a 22-point
second-half deficit, trimming the margin to six
points, but couldn’t quite complete the comeback, putting an end to its NCAA Division I record-tying 30-game road winning streak.
Junior guard Jewell Loyd paced the furious
Fighting Irish rally, scoring 18 of her team-high
27 points in the second half. Freshman forward
Brianna Turner added 17 points and a teamhigh 10 rebounds for her third career doubledouble (all in the past four games).

Notre Dame is ranked No. 4 in this week’s
Associated Press poll, its 27th consecutive
week and 71st of the past 75 weeks in the
AP Top 5.
Notre Dame has appeared in the AP poll
for 145 consecutive weeks (including the
past 75 weeks in the AP Top 10), extending
a program record that dates back to the
2007-08 preseason poll, and ranking sixth
in the nation among active AP poll appearances. What’s more, every current Fighting
Irish player has competed for a top-10 Notre
Dame squad during her career, never ranking lower than seventh in that time (2011-12
to present).
Notre Dame is ranked No. 4 in the latest
Women’s Basketball Coaches Association
(WBCA)/USA Today poll, after previously
spending two weeks (Nov. 25 and Dec. 2)
as the nation’s No. 1 team. It was the first
time the Fighting Irish had been the topranked team in either major national poll
since April 1, 2001, when they were No.
1in the coaches’ poll following a 68-66 win
over Purdue that secured the program’s first
NCAA national championship.
Notre Dame ranks among the top 25 in eight
NCAA statistical categories (as of Saturday),
including three top-10 rankings — field-goal
percentage (5th - .490), scoring offense (6th
- 84.2 ppg.) and scoring margin (8th - +23.8
ppg.). The Fighting Irish also rank 11th in
the country in both assists (18.0 apg.) and
three-point percentage (.381), 18th in freethrow percentage (.758) and 23rd in both

in the past 14 seasons. Kayla McBride and
Natalie Achonwa were the most recent
Fighting Irish players to be chosen, with
McBride going to the San Antonio Stars in
the first round (third overall selection) and
Achonwa six picks later (No. 9 overall) to
the Indiana Fever in the 2014 WNBA Draft.
It marked the third consecutive year Notre
Dame had a player selected No. 3 overall
(Devereaux Peters went third to Minnesota
in 2012 and Skylar Diggins was chosen
in that same spot by Tulsa in 2013), making the Fighting Irish the second program
with lottery choices in three consecutive
seasons.
Diggins was a 2014 All-WNBA First Team
selection and the league’s Most Improved
Player, in addition to earning the starting
nod for the West at the 2014 WNBA All-Star
Game. Meanwhile, McBride was chosen
for the 2014 WNBA All-Rookie Team, the
second Fighting Irish alumna in as many
years to be selected for the squad (Diggins
was picked for 2013 all-rookie honors).
Peters earned her first WNBA Championship in 2013 with the Lynx (and fifth by a
Notre Dame alumna), who defeated the
Atlanta Dream (and former Fighting Irish
All-American Ruth Riley) in the WNBA
Finals. Riley previously had won a pair of
crowns with the Detroit Shock (2003 Finals
MVP, 2006), while Coquese Washington
toiled for the 2000 Houston Comets and
Jacqueline Batteast was Riley’s teammate
on the 2006 title-winning squad in Detroit.
For the eighth year in a row, the Fighting
Irish posted a perfect 100 Graduation
Success Rate (GSR) score, according to
figures released by the NCAA in October.
Notre Dame was one of only four schools
in the previous seven years to record a
perfect GSR score and play for a national
championship in the same season (and the
only program to do it more than once, pulling off that feat in 2011, 2012 and 2014).
The Notre Dame-Boston College Series
Notre Dame and Boston College will play for the
20th time on Sunday afternoon with the Fighting Irish holding a 14-5 edge in the series with
the Eagles, including wins in the past four (and
seven of the past eight) meetings. Notre Dame
also is 9-0 all-time against BC at Purcell Pavilion.
Boston College is the first of two home-andhome opponents (along with Georgia Tech) in
ACC play for the Fighting Irish, who will travel
to Chestnut Hill on Feb. 8.
The Last Time Notre Dame and
Boston College Met
Kayla McBride scored 19 points, Jewell Loyd
added 18 and No. 2 Notre Dame coasted to an
82-61 win over Boston College on Feb. 13, 2014,
at Conte Forum in Chestnut Hill, Massachusetts.
Kat Cooper led Boston College with 13
points, and Katie Zenevitch had 12 with eight
rebounds.
The Fighting Irish led 41-26 at halftime and
used a 12-0 run early in the second half to move
ahead by 28 points.

season, Notre Dame opened a double-digit
lead in the opening minutes of the game, 21-10,
but BC got back into single digits a few times
over the next 3 1/2 minutes before the Fighting
Irish went on a game-breaking 14-0 run late in
the half. Michaela Mabrey had a pair of threepointers and McBride had four points in the run.
Notre Dame’s tight man-to-man defense gave
BC fits on a number of occasions in the opening
half, forcing the Eagles deep into the shot clock.
The Fighting Irish overplayed the three-point
shooters, leading to some late contested longrange shots.
The Fighting Irish, who entered leading the
nation in field goal and three-point percentage,
missed their initial three shots from the floor
before nailing their next four en route to a 15-6
edge in the opening 5 1/2 minutes.
Notre Dame pushed its advantage to 20
points for the first time (49-29) on Loyd’s jumper
from the right wing 3:14 into the second half,
coming early a 12-0 spree. McBride capped the
run with a conventional three-point play when
she was fouled on a fastbreak and converted
the free throw.
The Last Time Notre Dame and
Boston College Met At Purcell Pavilion
No. 2 Notre Dame scored the first seven points
of the game, stretched the lead to double figures
in less than 10 minutes and by halftime its lead
was bigger than Boston College’s most lopsided

loss of the season. The Fighting Irish continued
to pull away in the second half with its bench
posting 55 points in a 95-53 victory on Jan. 9,
2014, at Purcell Pavilion.
Kayla McBride led Notre Dame with 20
points and eight rebounds, Michaela Mabrey
had 18, Taya Reimer 15 and Jewell Loyd had
14 to pace the balanced scoring attack. Mabrey,
who came in 0 of 12 shooting in the previous
two games, shot six of nine as the Fighting Irish
made 62 percent for the game.
Notre Dame dominated inside in the first half,
outscoring BC, 30-8 in the paint, then made six
of eight three-pointers in the second half.
Kristen Doherty led BC with 13 points, Katie
Zenevitch had 11 points and seven rebounds
and Lauren Engeln had 10.
Other Notre Dame-Boston College
Series Tidbits
• As fellow members of the ACC (and formerly
the BIG EAST Conference), Notre Dame and
Boston College have met regularly in league
play during the past two decades, with the
Fighting Irish owning a 12-3 edge against
the Eagles in conference games, including
an active five-game winning streak.
• This marks the fifth time Notre Dame and
Boston College have played a home-andhome series in conference play and the
second consecutive year in ACC competition (after Notre Dame won both meetings
last year). The Fighting Irish also played BC
twice during BIG EAST action in the 1996-97,
1998-99 and 2004-05 seasons, sweeping
two of those three home-and-home series,
while the teams split in 1998-99, each successfully defending their home court that
season.
• In their last eight matchups, the Fighting
Irish have held BC to 61 points or fewer
seven times and winning each time. The only
exception was the Eagles’ 78-61 win in the
first round of the 2006 NCAA Championship.
• Conversely, Notre Dame has scored at least
82 points in its last four games against Boston College after reaching that mark once in
its first 15 series games against the Eagles.
• The Fighting Irish have won the past four
games in the series by an average of 35.3
points per game.
• Notre Dame is 19-5 (.792) all-time against
Massachusetts schools (14-5 vs. Boston
College, 2-0 vs. UMass, 1-0 vs. UMass Lowell, Holy Cross and Harvard), including a 13-0
record at home (9-0 vs. BC, 1-0 vs. UMass,
UMass Lowell, Holy Cross and Harvard). The
Fighting Irish have won their last eight games
against the Commonwealth since a 78-61
loss to Boston College on March 19, 2006,
in the first round of the NCAA Championship
in West Lafayette, Indiana.
• Notre Dame will play five games against
Massachusetts teams this season (four at
Purcell Pavilion), including its ACC homeand-home series against Boston College.
During non-conference play, Notre Dame
defeated UMass Lowell (105-51 on Nov. 14),
Holy Cross (104-29 on Nov. 23) and Harvard
(97-43 on Nov. 24).

Conference Conquests
Thursday’s 78-63 loss at Miami ended Notre

and through the first two seasons of its affiliation
with the Atlantic Coast Conference.

Notre Dame’s recent streak erased the prior
school-record 33-game run from Feb. 25, 1989Feb. 14, 1991 — that streak took place during
the program’s dominant seven-year tenure as
part of the Midwestern Collegiate Conference
(now known as the Horizon League).
Despite Thursday’s loss, and when factoring
in postseason tournament results (league and
NCAA), the Fighting Irish have won 48 of their
last 51 games against conference opponents.
Notre Dame’s other two losses to a league foe in
the past three seasons both came at the hands
of Connecticut in the 2012 BIG EAST Championship title game (63-54 in Hartford, Connecticut)
and the 2013 NCAA Women’s Final Four national
semifinals (83-65 in New Orleans, Louisiana).

snapped at Miami, with the last Fighting Irish
road loss in league play coming as part of the
BIG EAST Conference on Feb. 28, 2011 (a lastsecond 70-69 loss at No. 12/11 DePaul).
The highlight of Notre Dame’s remarkable recent road run came on Jan. 5, 2013, when Notre
Dame edged No. 1 Connecticut, 73-72, in Storrs,
Connecticut, earning its fourth all-time win over
a top-ranked opponent and first-ever victory on
the road.
Even with Thursday’s loss at Miami, Notre
Dame still has won 39 of its last 40 (and 46 of its
last 52) regular season road games.
More Streak Stats
Dating back to the start of the 2012-13 season,
Notre Dame has posted a 86-5 (.945) record. In
that three-year span, four of the five Fighting Irish
losses have come against top-three teams —
No. 3 Baylor (73-61 on Dec. 5, 2012, at Purcell
Pavilion), No. 3 Connecticut (83-65 on April 7,
2013, in the NCAA Women’s Final Four national
semifinals at New Orleans Arena in New Orleans,
Louisiana), No. 1 Connecticut (79-58 on April 8,
2014, in the NCAA Women’s Final Four national
championship game at Bridgestone Arena in
Nashville, Tennessee) and No. 3 Connecticut
(76-58 on Dec. 6, 2014, in the Jimmy V Classic
at Purcell Pavilion).
The other loss came Jan. 8 with a 78-63 setback at Miami. That defeat ended Notre Dame’s
61-game winning streak against unranked oppo-
nents (in the Associated Press poll), the secondlongest active run in the nation. The Fighting Irish
last fell to an unranked team on Feb. 12, 2012,
suffering a last-second 65-63 home loss to West
Virginia (research for this note provided by STATS
via the AP).
Poise Under Pressure
Notre Dame hasn’t had to deal with many close
games in recent seasons, but when faced with
such a challenge, the Fighting Irish have risen to
the occasion.
Notre Dame has won its last 15 games decided
by single digits and/or in overtime, including all
three close games this season. The Fighting Irish
last dropped a single-digit decision on March 6,
2012, falling 63-54 at No. 4 Connecticut in the
BIG EAST Conference Tournament championship
game at Hartford, Connecticut.
Visiting Century City
Notre Dame has scored at least 100 points
three times this season (and posted 97 points in
another), already challenging last year’s schoolrecord mark of five triple-digit outings, erasing
the 2012-13 standard of three such contests.
The Fighting Irish have piled up 11 100-point
games since the start of the 2011-12 season (and
nine other games of 95-99 points), a remarkable
offensive explosion considering Notre Dame
had 13 triple-digit games in the first 34 years of
the program’s existence—and just four in the 12
seasons prior to its current run.
This season marked the first time the Fighting
Irish opened with three 100-point games in their
first six contests. In fact, prior to 2012-13, Notre
Dame had never had more than two triple-digit
outings in an entire season, something it has now
done for a third consecutive campaign.

of Notre Dame women’s basketball player earned
conference freshman-of-the-week honors in
consecutive weeks. It’s taken freshman forward
Brianna Turner less than two months to pull off
that feat twice.
For the fourth time this season, Turner was
chosen as the Atlantic Coast Conference Freshman of the Week, earning that honor Monday
based on a vote of the conference’s Blue Ribbon
Panel that is comprised of the ACC’s 15 head
coaches, local and national media members and
the women’s basketball media relations directors
for each school.
Turner, who also received the ACC’s top weekly
freshman honor back on Nov. 17 and 24, has
garnered exactly half of the conference’s eight
Freshman of the Week awards this season, with
no other player earning that distinction more than
once to date in the 2014-15 campaign.
Turner becomes the fifth Notre Dame player
in program history to earn four conference
freshman-of-the-week accolades in one season,
and the first to cop the honor in back-to-back
weeks on two separate occasions during the
same year. Current junior guard Jewell Loyd was
the most recent Fighting Irish player to earn four
conference freshman-of-the-week honors, doing
2014-15 Notre Dame Women’s Basketball
5
so in 2012-13 when Notre Dame competed in
the BIG EAST Conference.
Notre Dame’s only other four-time recipients
of the weekly conference freshman award all
occurred during the program’s BIG EAST era
— Skylar Diggins (four in 2009-10), Jacqueline
Batteast (six in 2001-02) and Alicia Ratay (six
in 1999-2000).
Turner is coming off a successful opening
weekend in ACC play, averaging 17.0 points,
9.0 rebounds and 6.0 blocks per game with a
.667 field-goal percentage as Notre Dame began
its conference schedule with wins over Florida
State (74-68 at Purcell Pavilion on Jan. 2) and
No. 21/22 Syracuse (85-74 at the Carrier Dome
on Jan. 4).
Turner scored 12 of her 14 points against
Florida State in the second half before chalking up her second career double-double at
No. 21/22 Syracuse with 20 points (on nine of
13 shooting), a game-high 13 rebounds and a
career-high seven blocks.
Crown Jewell
Junior guard Jewell Loyd leads the ACC
and ranks 14th in the nation in scoring (as of
Saturday), thanks in part to one of the most
explosive individual scoring seasons in Notre
Dame women’s basketball history.
• Loyd has scored 355 points in her first 65
games this season (22.2 points per game),
matching the quickest run to a “triple century” in program annals (like Loyd, Katryna
Gaither scored her 300th point in her 14th
game during the 1996-97 season, a 74-67
loss at Ohio State).
• Loyd is the first Fighting Irish women’s
basketball player to register eight 20-point
games in her first 10 outings of a season,
surpassing Gaither (who had seven 20-point
games in first 10 contests of 1996-97). Loyd
now has 11 20-point games this season.
• Loyd is the first Notre Dame women’s
basketball player to register back-to-back
30-point games and for good measure, she
did it against a pair of ranked opponents in
No. 3 UConn (31 points) and No. 25 DePaul
(school record-tying 41 points). Current
Fighting Irish associate coach Beth (Morgan) Cunningham had two 30-point games
in three days on Dec. 1 and 3, 1995, in close
losses to No. 12/13 Penn State (32) and No.
RV/22 Texas A&M (34) at the Kona Women’s
Basketball Classic in Kona, Hawaii, although
there was a game between those two (Cunningham scored 23 points in a win over
Washington).

basket of double figures).
Katryna Gaither has staked a seemingly
ironclad claim to the school record with a remarkable 76-game double-figure scoring streak
from 1994-97.
Turner Throwing A Block Party
Freshman forward Brianna Turner has recorded
24 blocked shots in her last five games (4.8
bpg.), all since returning from a shoulder injury
that sidelined her for the better part of the four
previous games.
Since her return on Dec. 21 against Saint
Joseph’s (Pa.), the Pearland, Texas, native has
logged at least five blocks in four games, including a career-high seven rejections at No. 21/22
Syracuse on Jan. 4.
Turner’s 22 blocks from Dec. 21-Jan. 4 were
the most by a Notre Dame player in a four-game
span since Nov. 21-Dec. 2, 1998, when Ruth
Riley had 22 blocks against No. 6/4 Duke, No.
25/23 Illinois, San Francisco and Toledo.
For the season, Turner ranks third in the ACC
and 20th in the nation at 2.7 blocks per game.

Quick Facts
Notre Dame Quick Facts
NOTRE DAME
Achonwa last put on the Notre Dame uniform,
the 2014 graduate continues to selflessly give
back to her alma mater.
Achonwa is in her first year as an operations
specialist on the Fighting Irish coaching staff,
having assumed that post last June. A firstround selection by the Indiana Fever in the 2014
WNBA Draft, Achonwa currently lives in South
Bend and commutes regularly to Indianapolis
while continuing rehabilitation of her left knee
following surgery to repair a torn anterior cruciate ligament last spring (the injury occurred in
Notre Dame’s NCAA Elite Eight win over Baylor
on March 31, 2014, at Purcell Pavilion).
In her current role, Achonwa oversees the
program’s travel plans, social media outlets and
other day-to-day office operations, helping to fill
the void left by fellow operations specialist Katie
Schwab, who has been hospitalized the past
seven months following complications related
to her Type I diabetes.
The Notre Dame women’s basketball program and several of Schwab’s supporters within
and outside the University have banded together
to hold several fundraisers to help defray some
of Schwab’s medical expenses. The most notable of these fundraisers came in August, when
the group (known informally as “Team Katie”)
generated approximately $21,000 through a live
and silent auction at the legendary Linebacker
Lounge (across from the Notre Dame campus),
as well as through online donations.
Notre Dame also held its first Diabetes
Awareness Day on Nov. 23 prior to the Fighting
Irish win over Holy Cross at Purcell Pavilion, and
the team has been active with the local chapter
of the Juvenile Diabetes Foundation (JDRF),
including participation in its annual JDRF Walk
to Cure Diabetes on Sept. 14, 2014, in nearby
Mishawaka, Indiana.
Schwab’s family continues to provide regular
updates on her condition through the CaringBridge web site: http://www.caringbridge.org/

Game #16 Recap: Miami
Adrienne Motley scored a career-high 32
points, Jassany Williams blocked a schoolrecord nine shots and Miami snapped No. 4
Notre Dame’s NCAA Division I record-tying 30game road winning streak by running out to a big
lead and then pulling away again late to upset
the Fighting Irish 78-63 on Thursday night at
the BankUnited Center in Coral Gables, Florida.
The Hurricanes (12-3, 2-0 ACC) led 40-20
at the half, saw the lead whittled to six and
then closed the game on a 23-14 spurt. Motley
made 13 of 19 shots, Suriya McGuire added 11
points and Williams added six points and eight
rebounds to her nine-block night. Plus, Miami’s
bench outscored Notre Dame’s 21-7.
Jewell Loyd scored 27 points for Notre Dame
(14-2, 2-1), which also got 17 points and 10
rebounds from Brianna Turner.
Beyond The Box Score: Miami
• The Fighting Irish lost by double digits to
an unranked opponent for the first time
since March 8, 2009, when they fell 58-47
to Villanova in the BIG EAST Tournament
quarterfinals at Hartford, Connecticut.

It extended the program record that started

record was 59 consecutive weeks from 19982001), and it made the Fighting Irish are one of
six teams in the nation with an active streak of

time Notre Dame stood atop the rankings since
April 1, 2001, following the program’s first NCAA

Fighting Irish have appeared in the coaches’ poll
for a total of 279 weeks during their history (all
coming during McGraw’s tenure).

Half And Half
During the past 15 seasons, Notre Dame has
been nearly unbeatable when it has the lead
at halftime. The Fighting Irish are 324-19 (.945)
since the start of the 2000-01 campaign when
they go into the dressing room with the lead,
including wins in 252 of their last 265 such
contests (.951).
What’s more, in the past six seasons (2009-10
to present), Notre Dame is 161-2 (.988) when
leading at the half, with the only losses coming
on April 5, 2011, in the NCAA national championship game at Conseco Fieldhouse in Indianapolis
(Notre Dame led Texas A&M, 35-33 at intermission before falling 76-70), and Feb. 12, 2012,
against West Virginia (Fighting Irish led 33-30 at
the break before the visiting Mountaineers rallied
to win in the closing seconds, 65-63).
The Best Offense Is A Good Defense…
During the past 20 seasons, Notre Dame has
discovered that a solid defensive effort can
almost certainly guarantee a victory. In fact,
since the beginning of the 1995-96 season, the
Fighting Irish have an amazing 300-15 (.952)
record when they hold their opponents below
60 points in a game, including a 8-0 record
this season.
…But Sometimes You Have To Score If
You Want To Win
Not resting solely on its defensive laurels, Notre
Dame also seemingly has found the magic mark
when it comes to outscoring its opponents.
During the past 20 seasons (since 1995-96), the
Fighting Irish are 224-6 (.974) when they score
at least 80 points in a game. The only blemishes
on that record are three overtime losses to Texas
A&M (88-84) and Michigan State (87-83) in 1995
and UCLA (86-83 in double OT) in 2010, as well
as a 106-81 loss to Connecticut in 1998, an 8180 loss to DePaul in 2008, and a 94-81 setback
at Baylor in 2011.
In the past six years (2009-10 to present),
Notre Dame is 101-2 (.981) when topping the
80-point mark, including an active 68-game
winning streak since a 94-81 loss at No. 1 Baylor
on Nov. 20, 2011, in the Preseason WNIT title
game.
Now That’s A Home Court Advantage
One of the hallmarks of Notre Dame’s success
has been its stellar play at home. In fact, the
Fighting Irish have been virtually untouchable
at home in recent years, winning 260 of their
last 290 games (.897), all but one game/win
at the 9,149-seat Purcell Pavilion, including
winning streaks of 51, 34, 25 and 20 games
in that span.
Since Purcell Pavilion was renovated prior
to the 2009-10 season, Notre Dame is 86-6
(.935) — including wins in 62 of its last 65
games — and three of the six Fighting Irish
losses in their refurbished facility have come
by three points or fewer (two in overtime).
Notre Dame also has a 205-30 (.872) record

in regular season conference play at the former Joyce Center, sporting a program-record
31-game league winning streak at home before
it ended with a 48-45 loss to BIG EAST foe
Villanova in the ’02 home finale.
The Fighting Irish have been especially
strong when it comes to non-league home
games, winning 125 of their last 135 outof-conference home contests (.926), dating
back to the 1994-95 season. Five of the 10
losses in that span came at the hands of Big
Ten opponents (four by 12 points or less) —
Wisconsin in 1996 (81-69), Purdue in 2003
(71-54), Michigan State in 2004 (82-73 OT),
Indiana in 2006 (54-51) and Minnesota in 2009
(79-71) — with the other defeats coming to
Tennessee in 2005 (62-51) and 2008 (87-63),
UCLA in 2010 (86-83 in 2OT), Baylor in 2012
(73-61) and Connecticut in 2014 (76-58). The
Purdue loss snapped a 33-game non-conference home winning streak that began after the
UW setback.
Since its inaugural season in 1977-78,
Notre Dame has played all but one of its
games at the former Joyce Center, posting
a 409-91 (.818) record at the venerable facility, including a school-record 17 wins in both
2011-12 and 2013-14.

Fighting Irish Are Hottest Ticket In Town
The past five seasons have seen an unprecedented surge in fan support for Notre Dame
women’s basketball, as the Fighting Irish set
new program records for the highest year-end
NCAA attendance ranking (fourth in 2009-10
and 2013-14), highest average attendance
(8,979 fans per game in 2012-13) and most
sellouts in a single season (11 in 2012-13).
And, as the old saying goes — “you ain’t seen
nothin’ yet.”
For the sixth consecutive year, Notre Dame
fans all but exhausted the program’s season
ticket packages (approximately 7,500) and
have snapped up single-game ducats at a rate
that helped the Fighting Irish post two sellouts
(Dec. 6 vs. Connecticut; Jan. 2 vs. Florida
State), while several other home games are
rapidly approaching sellout status.
As of Saturday, Notre Dame ranks fourth
in the nation in attendance, averaging 8,800
fans per game. That equates to 96.2 percent of
Purcell Pavilion’s capacity, the second-highest
such percentage of any team in the country
(DePaul is at 97.8 percent).
Oh Captain, My Captain
Senior guard Whitney Holloway, senior
forward Markisha Wright and junior guard
Michaela Mabrey are serving as Notre Dame’s
team captains for the 2014-15 season. All
three players received the captain’s honor for
the first time in their respective careers following a preseason vote by their teammates.
This is the seventh time in 11 seasons
the Fighting Irish have had a trio of captains,
as well as the second year in a row (Natalie
Achonwa, Ariel Braker and Kayla McBride
filled the captaincy trio last season).
Irish Fans Crave Another Big Mac Attack
Now in its eighth season, Notre Dame’s wildlysuccessful “Big Mac” promotion once again
looks to send fans home with full bellies, offering a coupon for a
free Big Mac from ND’s “Big Mac Baskets”

NOTES: Notre Dame earned its 20th consecutive season-opening
win and improved to 25-3 (.893) on opening night in the Muffet
McGraw era, as well as 30-8 (.789) all-time … Notre Dame scored
100 points in a season opener for the fourth time in program history
and first since Nov. 15, 2009 (a 102-57 win over Arkansas-Pine
Bluff at Purcell Pavilion) … Notre Dame’s 61 first-half points
tied last year’s season high for one half, set in the opening 20
minutes against Syracuse on Feb. 9, 2014, at Purcell Pavilion
… the Fighting Irish won their 20th consecutive game against a
first-time opponent, rising to 44-3 (.936) against new foes since
the start of the 2000-01 season … the 54-point win was Notre
Dame’s second-largest margin of victory in a season opener and
largest since Nov. 24, 1989, when the Fighting Irish trounced
Liberty, 113-35, at the UCF Rotary Classic in Orlando … Notre
Dame extended its current home winning streak to 29 games, the
second-longest in program history … the Fighting Irish have won
19 of their last 20 games in the month of November and are 82-14
(.854) in November games since 1995-96 … Turner shattered the
33-year-old Notre Dame record for points by a freshman in her
debut game (22 by Ruth Kaiser vs. St. Joseph’s-Ind. on Dec. 3,
1981), tying Kaiser’s total with 6:17 left in the first half (Turner
rested the remainder of the opening period, then set the record
less than 90 seconds into the second half) … Turner scored the
second-most points by any Notre Dame player (at any grade
level) in a season opener, topped only by All-America forward
Katryna Gaither’s 31 points at Indiana on Nov. 24, 1995. Gaither
made 13 field goals in that 82-73 Fighting Irish win, the last time
a Notre Dame player converted 13 baskets in a season opener
… Loyd tied her career high with 10 made free throws, having
also converted 10 foul shots at Wake Forest on Feb. 20, 2014 …
Loyd posted her 16th career 20-point game and scored in double
figures for the 44th consecutive game (the second-longest streak
in school history behind Gaither’s 76-game run from 1994-97)
… Cable scored in double figures for the 10th time in her career
and first since March 22, 2014, when she had 13 points in Notre
Dame’s 93-42 NCAA Championship first-round win over Robert
Morris at Savage Arena in Toledo, Ohio … Huffman scored a
career-high eight points, topping her previous best of seven
points at Marquette on Feb. 17, 2013. Huffman’s four field goals
and six field goal attempts also were career highs, supplanting
her previous bests (three of five) at DePaul on Feb. 24, 2013 …
along with Turner, Johnson and Westbeld also made their college
debuts against UMass Lowell.

consecutive road game, tying Stanford (2011-12 through 2013-14)
for the third-longest road winning streak in NCAA Division I history
… Notre Dame also won its 54th consecutive regular season game
… the Fighting Irish earned their fourth consecutive win against
Michigan State (the longest streak by either side in the series), tying
the all-time rivalry with the Spartans at 8-8 … more than half of
the 16 games in the Notre Dame-Michigan State series have been
decided by single digits, including four of the past five meetings
… the Fighting Irish posted their 11th consecutive win against a
Big Ten Conference opponent (seventh straight road victory) and
have won 22 of their last 28 games against Big Ten schools (not
counting recent matchups with new Big Ten members Maryland
and Rutgers) … Notre Dame rose to 58-20 (.744) all-time against
teams from the state of Michigan, including a 38-8 (.826) record
under 28th-year head coach Muffet McGraw—the Fighting Irish

… Loyd posted her seventh career double-double and first since
March 29, 2012, when she tallied 20 points and 12 rebounds in
a win over No. 21/18 Oklahoma State in the NCAA Sweet 16 at
Purcell Pavilion … Loyd also chalked up her 17th career 20-point
game … Turner went scoreless in the first half (due to foul trouble),
but erupted for all 17 of her points after halftime, including Notre
Dame’s first 10 points of the second half … Allen pulled down
a career-high nine rebounds, one more than her previous best
against Georgia Tech on Feb. 17, 2014 … Allen also scored in
double figures for the first time since Feb. 2, 2014, when she had
15 points at No. 3 Duke … Huffman provided a key spark off the
bench, nabbing a career-high three steals, one better than her
previous high set on three occasions (most recently on Feb. 9,
2014, against Syracuse).

Foster, with McGraw now leading the all-time series, 5-3 (all five
wins coming since McGraw arrived at Notre Dame in 1987-88)
… Loyd has 68 points this season, the most by a Fighting Irish
player in the opening three games of a season since 1996-97,
when All-America forward Katryna Gaither piled up a combined
72 points … Loyd also moved up two more spots into 24th place
on the Notre Dame career scoring list (now with 1,205 points),
passing Krissi Davis (1,194 from 1987-91) and Heidi Bunek (1,202

NOTES: Notre Dame held Holy Cross to 29 points, the fewest
points by a Fighting Irish opponent since Dec. 28, 2011, when
Notre Dame defeated Longwood, 92-26 at Purcell Pavilion … the
Fighting Irish 25-0 run crossing halftime was its longest since a
27-0 run during the Longwood game in 2011 … this marked the
first time in program history the Fighting Irish scored more than
100 points while holding their opponent to less than 30 points
… the 75-point margin of victory is the fifth-largest spread in
school history (largest since Jan. 17, 2012, when Notre Dame
downed Pittsburgh, 120-44, also at Purcell Pavilion) … Notre
Dame extended its home winning streak to 31 games, its regular
season winning streak to 56 games and its winning streak against
unranked opponents (according to the Associated Press poll) to
54 games—the first two streaks are the longest active runs in the
nation in NCAA Division I, while the latter streak is the secondlongest current run in the country by a Division I program … Notre
Dame’s 64 rebounds tied for seventh-most in a single game in
school history and most since Jan. 2, 2011, when the Fighting
Irish had 66 rebounds in a 97-21 win over Southeast Missouri
State at Purcell Pavilion … Notre Dame’s 42 field goals tied for
seventh-most in a single game in program history and most since
Dec. 22, 2013, when it also made 42 baskets in a 106-72 win
over Central Michigan at Purcell Pavilion … Holy Cross shot 18.6
percent from the field, the lowest single-game percentage by a
Notre Dame opponent since the Jan. 2, 2011, win over Southeast
Missouri when the RedHawks shot an opponent record-low 12.5
percent (seven of 56) … Holy Cross shot 17.6 percent in the
second half, the first time a Fighting Irish opponent shot below

points (58-15) vs. Indiana State on Nov. 13, 2011, in the Preseason
Women’s National Invitation Tournament quarterfinals at Purcell

are 86-14 (.860) in the month of November since 1995-96 and
have won 23 of their last 24 November games … Notre Dame
matched its season high with five double-digit scorers, also doing
so against Chattanooga on Nov. 21 … for the second consecutive
game, all 12 Fighting Irish players in uniform found the scoring
column … Notre Dame’s bench outscored the entire Harvard team,
51-43 … Huffman became the ninth different Notre Dame player
to score in double figures this season, doing so for the first time

against UMass Lowell on Nov. 14 and Chattanooga on Nov. 21) …
Westbeld gathered a career-high eight rebounds, one more than
her total against Chattanooga on Nov. 21 … despite an off-night

NOTES: Hours before tipoff, Notre Dame ascended to the top spot
in the WBCA/USA Today coaches’ poll, the first time the Fighting
Irish have been ranked No. 1 in either major national poll since
April 1, 2001, following Notre Dame’s 68-66 win over Purdue in
St. Louis to earn the program’s first NCAA national championship
… Notre Dame is the first ACC team to reach No. 1 in the polls
since March 12, 2007 (Duke) … Notre Dame’s 112 points were
the fifth-most points scored in a single game in program history
(third-most in a home game) and most since Dec. 31, 2012, when
the Fighting Irish defeated Saint Francis (Pa.), 128-55, at Purcell
Pavilion … it was the third 100-point game this season for Notre
Dame, which has now reached triple digits 13 times in the past
three-plus seasons (2011-12 to present) after scoring 100 points
in a game only 13 times in the program’s first 34 seasons … the
Fighting Irish made 32 free-throws, tying for seventh-most in a
single game in school history (tying for fifth-most in a home game)
and most since Jan. 15, 2013, when Notre Dame went 35 for
38 from the line against Georgetown at Purcell Pavilion … Notre
Dame’s 40 free-throw attempts tied for 10th-most for a single
game in program history and most since Dec. 30, 2011, when
the Fighting Irish tried a school-record 52 foul shots (making 43)
at Mercer … Notre Dame extends its home winning streak to 33
consecutive games, as well as its regular-season winning streak
to 58 games and its success string against unranked opponents
(in the AP poll) to 56 consecutive games … the Fighting Irish
have won 37 of their last 41 regular-season tournament games,
dating back to the 1996-97 season … Notre Dame is 48-3 (.941)
against first-time opponents since 2000-01, including an active
24-game winning streak … the Fighting Irish also have won 37
in a row at home against new foes since 1995-96 … Notre Dame
improves to 6-0 all-time against the current Metro Atlantic Athletic
Conference alignment … Westbeld posted her first career doubledouble, highlighted by a career-best 12 rebounds … Johnson had
career highs of seven assists (no turnovers) and four steals …
Turner notched her second career 20-point game … Notre Dame
head coach Muffet McGraw raised her 33-year coaching record
to 757-259 (.745), tying for 12th place on the NCAA all-division
career wins list with Phil Kahler, who coached at NCAA Division
III St. John Fisher College from 1974-2008.

NOTES: Notre Dame is off to a 7-0 start for the second consecutive
season and fourth time in the past seven years … the Fighting Irish
have won 38 of their last 42 regular-season tournament games
(multi-game events only), including their last nine in a row … Notre
Dame finished the month of November undefeated for the third
consecutive season and have won 25 of their last 26 November
games, as well as improving to 88-14 (.863) in the month since
1995-96 … the Fighting Irish are 32-12 (.727) all-time against
current Big 12 members including an 18-10 (.643) record away
from home (road/neutral sites combined), and have won their last
five games against Big 12 opponents (third in 11 games dating
back to last season) … Notre Dame extends its regular-season
winning streak to 59 consecutive games and its winning streak
against unranked opponents (in the Associated Press poll) to 57
in a row … the Fighting Irish shot better than 55 percent from
the field in consecutive games for the first time since March 2,
2014, at No. 13/17 North Carolina State (.561) and March 7, 2014,
against Florida State (.604) in the ACC Championship quarterfinals
at the Greensboro Coliseum in Greensboro, North Carolina …
Notre Dame shot better than 90 percent from the free-throw line
(minimum of 10 attempts) for the first time since March 31, 2014,
when it went 30 of 33 (.909) against No. 5/6 Baylor in the NCAA
Notre Dame Regional final at Purcell Pavilion … the Fighting Irish
tied their season high with eight three-pointers, while their .615
three-point percentage was a season best and highest since
Jan. 16, 2014, when they made nine of 12 three-pointers (.750)
in a 109-66 win at Pittsburgh … Loyd posted her fifth 20-point
game in seven outings this season and scored in double figures
for the 50th consecutive game, the second-longest streak in
school history … in addition to Westbeld’s career-high four assists, Huffman also snared a career-high four steals … for the
fourth consecutive game, all 12 Notre Dame players in uniform
found the scoring column.
NOTES: This was a matchup of the only two schools who were
undefeated in ACC/Big Ten Challenge games (Notre Dame was
1-0, Maryland was 7-0, all while members of the ACC) … Notre
Dame was playing its first off-site home game in the program’s
38-year history, and playing in the city of Fort Wayne for the first
time since Jan. 24, 1979 (a 49-41 win at IPFW) … the Fighting
Irish extended their home winning streak to 34 games and their
regular-season winning streak to 60 games … Notre Dame earned
its second win over a ranked opponent this season and improves
to 43-6 against ranked teams since 2011-12 … Notre Dame took
a 5-4 lead in the all-time series with Maryland, having won the
past four games against the Terrapins (three by at least 20 points)
… the Fighting Irish are 68-69 all-time against the current Big Ten
Conference alignment, including a 34-24 record at home and a
60-48 record in the Muffet McGraw era (1987-88 to present) …
Notre Dame now has won its last 12 games against Big Ten teams
and 23 of its last 29 against the conference (not including games
against Maryland, Nebraska and Rutgers before they recently
joined the Big Ten) … for the second consecutive season, the
Fighting Irish now have shot better than 55 percent from the
field in three consecutive games, something they also did last
year against UCLA, Michigan and Central Michigan (prior to last
season, Notre Dame had not had three consecutive 55-percent
shooting games since 1996-97) … the Fighting Irish also shot
better than 55 percent in both halves (.593 in the first, .565 in the
second) for the first time since March 22, 2014, when they did so
against Robert Morris (.568 in the first, .630 in the second) in the
first round of the NCAA Championship in Toledo, Ohio … Loyd
scored at least 20 points for the sixth time in eight games this
season … Loyd scored in double figures for the 51st consecutive
game, the second-longest streak in school history … Loyd tied
her career high with six assists, a mark she first set at Maryland
on Jan. 27, 2014 … Reimer scored a career-high 21 points, two
more than her previous high against Michigan State on Nov. 11,
2013 … Wright registered season highs of nine points and eight
rebounds … Notre Dame was playing on the 37th anniversary of
the program’s inaugural game (a 48-41 win over Valparaiso at
Purcell Pavilion) … the attendance of 9,189 (in the 13,000-seat
Allen County War Memorial Coliseum) was the largest home
crowd for a Notre Dame women’s basketball game since Feb. 8,
2009, when 10,011 fans were on hand at Purcell Pavilion (then
at a capacity of 11,418, prior to its summer 2009 renovation and
creation of its current capacity of 9,149) to see the Fighting Irish
edge No. 25 DePaul, 62-59.

NOTES: Notre Dame’s 34-game home winning streak (secondlongest in school history) and 60-game regular season winning
streak (not including conference tournament games and like the
home string, the longest active run in the nation) both ended —
the last time the Fighting Irish either lost at Purcell Pavilion or in
the regular season was the same game (Dec. 5, 2012 - a 73-61
setback to another third-ranked opponent, Baylor) … this was
just the eighth loss for Notre Dame in the past four seasons (the
Fighting Irish are 115-8, .935, since 2011-12), and seven of those
losses have come to opponents ranked fourth or higher in both
major national polls (UConn four times, Baylor three times) …
the Fighting Irish led 28-18 with 10:13 left in the first half — this
was the first time they lost after holding a double-digit lead for
the first time since Feb. 12, 2012, when they gave up a 48-37
lead with 13:05 left against West Virginia, losing 65-63 at Purcell
Pavilion … Notre Dame has forced 105 UConn turnovers in the
Huskies’ last four visits to South Bend (averaging 26 takeaways
per game in that span) … Loyd tied her career high with 31 points,
having first scored that many at Maryland on Jan. 27, 2014 …
this was Loyd’s fourth career 30-point game, tying her for fourth
in Notre Dame history and making her just the fifth Fighting Irish
women’s basketball player with four career 30-point nights …
Loyd also tied her career best with four steals, a mark she had
set three times previously (the last at Duke on Feb. 2, 2014) …
Loyd scored in double figures for the 52nd consecutive game,
still the second-longest run of its kind in program history …
Notre Dame drew its first sellout crowd of the season (9,149), as
well as its 36th since 2009-10 and the 42nd in program history.

NOTES: Notre Dame extended its school-record road winning
streak to 28 games, the longest active run in the country and
third-longest in NCAA Division I history … the Fighting Irish are
3-1 against ranked opponents this season, and 44-7 in the past
four seasons … Notre Dame played its first overtime game since
March 4, 2013, when the Fighting Irish defeated UConn, 96-87
in triple overtime at Purcell Pavilion … Notre Dame has won its
last five overtime games since an 86-83 double-overtime loss to
15th-ranked UCLA on Nov. 18, 2010 … the 187 combined points
tied for seventh-most in a Notre Dame game, and most since Jan.
19, 2008 (104-86 win at Georgetown) … Notre Dame’s 94 points
tied for ninth-most in a road game in program history and most
since Jan. 16, 2014 (109-66 win at Pittsburgh) … Notre Dame had
three players record double-doubles in the same game for the first
time since Dec. 8, 2012, against Utah State at Purcell Pavilion …
Notre Dame had three players grab double-figure rebounds in the
same game for the first time since Dec. 21, 1995, at Michigan
State … Loyd tied the school record for points in a game (Ruth
Riley - 41 at Providence on Jan. 30, 1999) and became the first
player in school history with back-to-back 30-point games …
Loyd tied for 15th on the Atlantic Coast Conference single-game
scoring list, and most by an ACC player in one game since Dec.
29, 2013 (Wake Forest’s Chelsea Douglas - 48 vs. FIU) … Loyd
is the first Fighting Irish player with three consecutive 25-point
games since Charel Allen did so from Feb. 11-17, 2007, against
DePaul, at Villanova and at Providence … Loyd posted her fifth
career 30-point game, tying for second in program history …
Loyd’s 15 free-throws and 18 free-throw attempts both tied for
third-most foul shots made and attempted in one game in program
history, and most since Natalie Novosel tied the school record
with 18 made free-throws (on 20 attempts) on March 20, 2012,
against California in the second round of the NCAA Championship at Purcell Pavilion … Loyd is the first Notre Dame player to
record eight 20-point games in her first 10 outings of a season
… Cable recorded her first career double-double and second
career 20-point game … Reimer logged her first double-double
of the season and fourth of her career … Notre Dame has won six
consecutive games against DePaul, the longest winning streak by
either team in the 40-game series (DePaul won five in a row from
1988-90) … this was the first time Notre Dame and DePaul played
an overtime game in their series that dates back to 1979 … the
Fighting Irish lead the all-time series with the Blue Demons, 21-19,
with this being the fourth game between the schools decided by
one point and the 10th series game decided by one possession
(three points or fewer) … only once in the series has either team
scored more points than both teams tallied — DePaul registered
a 96-87 win over Notre Dame on Jan. 16, 1995, in Chicago …
Notre Dame has won 19 consecutive games against the current
(revamped) BIG EAST membership and 10 in a row on the road.

in the nation … Notre Dame shot better than 50 percent from
the field for the seventh time this season and first since Dec. 3,
when it connected at a .580 clip against No. 15/10 Maryland in
the ACC/Big Ten Challenge at Fort Wayne, Indiana … Michigan
came into the game ranked fourth in the nation in three-point
percentage (.423), but the Fighting Irish held the Wolverines to a
.214 three-point percentage (three of 14) … Notre Dame earns
its second consecutive win over Michigan and fifth in the past six
series meetings, improving to 11-7 all-time against the Wolverines
(8-1 at Purcell Pavilion) … the Fighting Irish also are 10-1 all-time
against Michigan when holding the Wolverines to 65 points or less
… Notre Dame evens its all-time record against the current Big
Ten Conference alignment at 69-69, with a 35-24 (.593) record at
home and 61-48 (.560) mark in the 28-year Muffet McGraw era
… Notre Dame has won 24 of its last 30 games against current
Big Ten schools, including an active 13-game winning streak
(three victories this season) … the Fighting Irish are 59-20 (.747)
all-time against schools from the state of Michigan, with a 39-8
(.830) record in the McGraw era … Notre Dame has won 16 of
its last 17 games against Michigan schools, dating back to the
2005-06 season … Allen scored a career-high 17 points, one
more than her previous best set against Miami on Jan. 23, 2014
… Loyd scored in double figures for the 54th consecutive game,
continuing the second-longest streak in school history … Cable
earned her second consecutive start (fifth of her career), ending
with nine points, four rebounds and a career-high four blocks
(previous best was two blocks against Oklahoma State in the
NCAA Sweet 16 on March 29, 2014) … Westbeld not only flirted
with her second double-double of the season, but also nearly
eclipsed her career scoring high of 15 points, set against Holy
Cross on Nov. 23 at Purcell Pavilion.

NOTES: Notre Dame extends its road winning streak to 29 games,
tying Baylor (2010-11 through 2013-14) for the second-longest
run in NCAA Division I history, one shy of Connecticut’s record
30-game road winning streak from 2007-08 through 2010-11 …
Notre Dame tied its season high with nine three-pointers (also
at DePaul on Dec. 10), one game after failing to make a trey for
the first time in a span of 85 games dating back to the 2012
season opener against No. 19/21 Ohio State … Notre Dame’s
.750 three-point percentage tied for the 10th-best single-game
mark from distance in school history, and best since a similar
nine of 12 (.750) performance at Pittsburgh on Jan. 16, 2014 …
in their last two games against UCLA, the Fighting Irish have
made a combined 19 of 29 three-point attempts (.655) … Notre
Dame is 9-1 in its last 10 true road games against California
schools, dating back to the 1993-94 season … the Fighting Irish
are 27-15 (.643) all-time against California teams, including an
active six-game winning streak … Notre Dame improves to 2820 (.583) all-time against current Pac-12 Conference members,
having won seven in a row and 25 of its last 32 games against
that league … the Fighting Irish earn their third consecutive win
over UCLA and fifth in the last six meetings against the Bruins,
trimming UCLA’s series lead over Notre Dame to 9-7 … the Fighting Irish have won the past three times they have visited Pauley
Pavilion after not winning on their first five trips to the legendary
arena … Notre Dame has won its last 12 games coming back
from the Christmas holiday break, improving to 27-11 (.711) alltime in post-Christmas games, including a 21-7 (.750) record in
the Muffet McGraw era (1987-88 to present) … Allen is the fifth
different Fighting Irish player to score 20 points in a game this
season … Turner posted her first career double-double with 14
points and a career-high 16 rebounds (previous high was nine vs.
UMass Lowell in her college debut on Nov. 14); Turner also tied
her career best with five blocks for the second consecutive game,
securing her first career “5-5-5” game … Loyd posted her fourth
“5-5-5” game of the season (ninth of her career) with 12 points,
seven rebounds and a career-high seven assists (previous best
was six assists on two occasions against Maryland – Jan. 27,
2014, and Dec. 3, 2014) … Loyd also scored in double figures
for the 56th consecutive game, extending the second-longest
streak in school history.

NOTES: The Fighting Irish win their school-record 37th consecutive
regular season conference game, dating back to their membership
in the BIG EAST Conference and since a 65-63 loss to West Virginia
on Feb. 12, 2012, at Purcell Pavilion … Notre Dame earns its 61st
consecutive win against an unranked opponent (according to the
AP poll), a run that began following that same 2012 loss to West
Virginia … the Fighting Irish have won their last nine conference
openers and 16 of their last 18 — they also have claimed eight of
their last nine conference home openers … Notre Dame has won
19 of its last 21 games when starting a new year … the Fighting
Irish have won 13 consecutive games against Florida schools
(six in a row at home) and are 32-5 (.865) all-time against teams
from the Sunshine State … Notre Dame moves to 3-0 all-time
against Florida State, with this being the Seminoles’ first-ever
visit to Purcell Pavilion … Notre Dame’s 12-point comeback win
was its largest in nearly a year, dating back to an 86-70 victory at
Tennessee on Jan. 20, 2014 (the Fighting Irish trailed 39-27 with
5:22 left in the first half before rallying past the Lady Vols) … Notre
Dame has won 14 consecutive games decided by single digits
and/or in overtime, including all three such outings this season
… Notre Dame shot better than 50 percent from the field for the
fourth consecutive game, a remarkable achievement considering
the Fighting Irish made just three of their first 14 shots against
Florida State (Notre Dame shot 63.2 percent from the field during
the final 32:45) … Loyd posted her ninth 20-point game of the
season and moved into 15th place on the Fighting Irish career
scoring list with 1,440 points, passing three players — Lindsay
Schrader (1,429 from 2005-10), current Notre Dame assistant
coach/recruiting coordinator Niele Ivey (1,430 from 1996-2001)
and Sheila McMillen (1,439 from 1995-99) … Loyd also scored
in double figures for the 57th consecutive game, continuing the
second-longest streak in school history … Allen’s eight assists
tied her career high set on Jan. 30, 2014, against Virginia Tech at
Purcell Pavilion … Allen connected on a shot from midcourt at
the halftime horn, the first for a Notre Dame player in exactly eight
years (Breona Gray at Seton Hall on Jan. 2, 2007) … Turner tied
her career high with five blocks for the third consecutive game.
Turner’s 15 combined blocks in the past three games are the most
for a Notre Dame player in a three-game span since Feb. 10-16,
2002, when another native Texan, Friendswood product Amanda
Barksdale blocked a combined 16 shots at home against Boston
College (school-record 11) and St. John’s (4), and at Rutgers (1) …
Notre Dame drew its second sellout crowd of the season (9,149)
and the 43rd in program history.

Nov. 25 at Purcell Pavilion … Turner’s seven blocks were the
most by a Notre Dame player in a single game since March 20,
2012, when Devereaux Peters recorded seven blocks against
California in the second round of the NCAA Championship at
Purcell Pavilion … Notre Dame’s nine blocks tied its season high
set in that season-opening win over UMass Lowell.

NOTES: Notre Dame saw its NCAA Division I record-tying 30game road winning streak come to an end, as the Fighting Irish
lost a road game for the first time since March 6, 2012, a 63-54
setback at Connecticut in the BIG EAST Conference Tournament
championship game … the Fighting Irish saw their 61-game
winning streak against unranked opponents (according to the
Associated Press poll) and their 38-game conference regular
season winning streak both stopped — the last loss prior to both
streaks was a 65-63 setback to then-BIG EAST foe West Virginia
on Feb. 12, 2012, at Purcell Pavilion … Notre Dame also had its
25-game regular season conference road winning streak snapped,
suffering its first league loss on the road since Feb. 28, 2011, a
70-69 BIG EAST loss at No. 12/11 DePaul … the Fighting Irish lost
by double digits to an unranked opponent for the first time since
March 8, 2009, when they fell 58-47 to Villanova in the BIG EAST

Notre Dame’s largest loss to an unranked opponent since Nov. 16,
2006 (75-49 at Penn State) … the Fighting Irish fall to 32-6 (.842)
all-time against Florida schools, including a 19-3 (.864) record
away from home, with this loss snapping Notre Dame’s 12-game
winning streak against teams from Florida (last defeat was an 8778 overtime setback at South Florida on Jan. 13, 2007) … Notre
Dame falls to 15-4 all-time against Miami, with the Hurricanes
earning their first series win over the Fighting Irish since Jan. 11,
2003 (80-70 at Purcell Pavilion), and their first series victory in
Coral Gables since Feb. 3, 1998 (77-76 at UM’s previous home,
the Knight Sports Complex) … Loyd moved into a tie for 13th
place on the Fighting Irish career scoring list with 1,492 points,
drawing even with Ashley Barlow (2006-10) … Loyd scored in
double figures for the 59th consecutive game, the second-longest
streak in program history … Loyd posted her 11th 20-point game
of the season, and her sixth 25-point outing (second in a row)
… Turner notched her third career double-double (all in the past
four games) … Allen registered at least six assists for the third
game in a row and sixth time this season … Westbeld tied her

2014-15 Notre Dame Women’s Basketball
fighting irish women’s basketball 2014-15
Head Coach Muffet McGraw
28th season at ND (677-220, .755) • 33rd season overall (765-261, .746)
“If we searched for an entire year, I don’t think we
would find anyone better suited for our program.”
With those words, former Notre Dame director of athletics
Gene Corrigan announced the hiring of Muffet McGraw as
the third head coach of the Fighting Irish women’s basketball
program on May 18, 1987. Corrigan may not have realized
it at the time, but he also ushered in an era of unparalleled
success in women’s basketball at Notre Dame, brought to
life on the shoulders of a 5-foot-6 dynamo who accepts nothing less than the very best from herself, her players and her
program.
Ask anyone familiar with women’s basketball about
McGraw and her Notre Dame program and inevitably, you’ll
hear the same two words — consistency and excellence.
And it’s no wonder, when you consider what McGraw and
the Fighting Irish have achieved in the past 28 seasons:
• The 2001 NCAA national championship, defeating Purdue
in the title game, 68-66. McGraw is one of seven active
Division I coaches to guide her team to a national title.
• Four trips to the NCAA Division I national championship
game, including three of the past four NCAA title contests
(2011, 2012 and 2014). McGraw is one of just three active
Division I coaches (and five all-time) with at least four
appearances in the NCAA national championship game.
• Six trips to the NCAA Women’s Final Four (1997, 2001,
2011, 2012, 2013, 2014). McGraw is one of just three
active Division I coaches (and five all-time) to lead her
team to six Women’s Final Four appearances.
• 12 NCAA Sweet 16 trips, all in the past 18 seasons
(1997-2014). The Fighting Irish are one of five teams in
the nation to make that claim.
• Three-time consensus National Coach of the Year,
sweeping the four major coaching honors (Associated
Press, WBCA, Naismith Award and USBWA) in 2001,
2013 and 2014. McGraw is the first NCAA Division I coach
to sweep the “Big Four” awards three times in her career.
• Six-time conference Coach of the Year, most recently
collecting her first ACC Coach of the Year trophy in 2014.
McGraw has earned her six coaching honors in five different conferences during her career (the past five awards
while at Notre Dame), having also garnered accolades
in the East Coast (1983 - at Lehigh), North Star (1988),
Midwestern Collegiate/Horizon League (1991), BIG EAST
(2001, 2013) and Atlantic Coast (2014) conferences.
• Ranks 10th all-time among NCAA Division I coaches with
765 career wins (reaching the 700-win milestone on Feb.
5, 2013, at Villanova in her 957th game, making her the
eighth-fastest to 700 wins in Division I history), and was
16th all-time among Division I coaches with a .744 career
winning percentage entering the 2014-15 season.
• Ranks eighth among NCAA Division I coaches with 26
20-win seasons, including 24 of her 27 seasons at Notre
Dame with 20-or-more victories, as well as 20 in the
past 21 years (1993-2014). The Fighting Irish also have
posted 11 25-win seasons, six 30-win campaigns and
three 35-win seasons in the past 18 years (1997-2014)
under McGraw’s tutelage.
• Made 21 NCAA tournament appearances, including a
current string of 19 consecutive NCAA tournament berths
(the sixth-longest active run of consecutive appearances
and eighth-longest streak at any time in NCAA tournament
history). During this current streak (1996-2014), Notre
Dame has won at least one NCAA postseason game 17
times.
• Won nine conference titles, including the past three in a
row outright in both the BIG EAST (2012, 2013) and ACC
(2014). The Fighting Irish also have run the table in their
last two conference seasons, going 16-0 in both the BIG
EAST (2012-13) and ACC (2013-14), the latter being the
first 16-0 record by an ACC school in 11 seasons. What’s
more, under McGraw’s guidance, Notre Dame has placed
among the top four in the final conference standings 24
times in the past 27 seasons.
• Earned seven conference tournament championships,
including each of the past two seasons as members of
the BIG EAST (2013) and ACC (2014).
• Collected 116 wins over ranked opponents, including
102 in the past 17 seasons (1998-99 through 2014-15).
In addition, 44 of those wins have come against top-10
opponents, including 15 against top-five teams and four
against No. 1-ranked squads.
• Made 284 appearances in the Associated Press Top
25 poll, including an active school-record streak of 145
consecutive weeks in the AP poll. McGraw is eighth
among active Division I coaches and 16th all-time in AP
poll appearances (as of Jan. 5). Notre Dame also has
spent 173 weeks ranked among the top 10 teams in the
nation, all in the past 19 seasons (1997-2014).
• Guided Notre Dame to the No. 1 ranking in the WBCA/
USA Today coaches’ poll on Nov. 25 and Dec. 2, 2014, the
first time the Fighting Irish were in the top spot since the
final poll of Notre Dame’s 2001 NCAA national championship season. Notre Dame also became the first ACC team
to earn the No. 1 ranking since March 12, 2007 (Duke).
• 19 consecutive top-20 recruiting classes, dating back to
the incoming class of 1997 (and including next year’s
incoming class of 2015, ranked as high as No. 3 in the
nation). Notre Dame is one of just three programs in the
nation that owns an active streak of that length.
• Ranks second on the all-time wins list (regardless of sport)
in the 127-year history of Fighting Irish athletics, trailing
only the late Michael DeCicco (774-80 combined record
with men’s/women’s fencing from 1962-95).
• Far and away the winningest basketball coach (men’s
or women’s) in school history, with noted men’s skipper
Digger Phelps second on that list (393 wins).
• A perfect 100-percent NCAA Graduation Success Rate
(GSR) score in each of the past seven years (2007-14).
In that time, Notre Dame is one of four programs in the
country to record a perfect GSR and go on to play for the
national title in the same season (something the Fighting
Irish did in 2010-11, 2011-12 and 2013-14).
Add it all up and you have the framework for a Hall of
Fame career. And, on June 11, 2011, that’s exactly what
McGraw became, as she officially was the first Notre Dame
representative to be inducted into the Women’s Basketball
Hall of Fame, an accomplishment immortalized with a banner
hanging in Purcell Pavilion.
Still, with all of those accomplishments in hand, McGraw
has shown no signs of slowing down any time soon. In July
2012, the veteran head coach signed a landmark 10-year
contract extension (believed to be among the longest contract agreements in NCAA women’s basketball history) that
will keep her patrolling the Fighting Irish sidelines through
the 2021-22 campaign.
“For more than 25 years, Muffet has led our women’s
basketball program and represented this University with
distinction,” said Rev. John I. Jenkins, C.S.C., Notre Dame’s
president. “Her teams have excelled on the court and in
the classroom, and I am absolutely delighted that she will
continue to lead the Irish for many more years.”

Head Coach Muffet McGraw
“We are thrilled to be able to enter into a decade-long
agreement with Muffet, who is not only the face of Notre
Dame women’s basketball, but increasingly, the face of
women’s basketball, given all that she’s accomplished,”
said University vice president and director of athletics Jack
Swarbrick. “She’s taken this program to a place where it’s
annually in the conversation for the national championship,
which is the model all coaches want to follow. She’s also
playing an important role in the game nationally, and her
peers recognize those contributions, as well as the quality
of her program here at Notre Dame. Off the court, she has
created a program that has a lasting community identification
and a special connection between the University and the
city of South Bend, which is one of those unique points of
intersection that universities have to be careful to build and
maintain, and she’s done that for us in a really remarkable
way.”
Under McGraw’s guidance, the past 20 seasons (199596 to the present) have been the most successful in Notre
Dame’s history, reflecting the program’s remarkable BIG
EAST Conference era and transition to its current home,
the Atlantic Coast Conference. During that time, the Fighting
Irish have compiled an impressive 518-140 (.787) record,
including a sparkling 250-65 (.794) regular season mark in
conference play, finishing their 18-year BIG EAST tenure
with the second-best winning percentage (232-64, .784) in
that league’s history.
Also during this near two-decade span, Notre Dame has
averaged more than 26 victories per year, with three 35-win
seasons, six 30-win campaigns and 11 25-win seasons to
its credit. What’s more, the Fighting Irish have one NCAA
national championship (2001), four NCAA title game appearances (2001, 2011, 2012, 2014), six NCAA Women’s Final
Four berths (1997, 2001, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014) and 12
Sweet 16 showings since the 1995-96 season, which began
the program’s current run of 19 consecutive NCAA Championship appearances.
The 2013-14 season proved to be one of historic success
for McGraw and Notre Dame, as the Fighting Irish not only
advanced to the NCAA Women’s Final Four for the fourth
year in a row (and the NCAA national championship game
for the third time in four seasons), but they also stormed
through their inaugural season in the ACC, winning both the
conference regular season and tournament championships
with a combined 19-0 record, becoming the first league
school since 2002-03 to do so (and the first ever to do it in its
inaugural ACC season). Notre Dame posted a near-spotless
overall 37-1 record (highlighted by a 37-game winning streak
to open the season, the longest by any Fighting Irish program in a team-only sport since World War II) and chalked
up 14 wins against ranked opponents while setting school
records for wins, winning percentage and scoring average
(86.1 ppg.), and leading the nation in field goal percentage
(.506), the program’s first NCAA team statistical title in any
category other than won-loss percentage since 2001 (when
Notre Dame led the nation in field goal percentage defense,
three-point percentage and blocked shots).
For her efforts, McGraw swept the “Big Four” national
coach-of-the-year accolades (Associated Press, Women’s
Basketball Coaches Association, United States Basketball
Writers Association and Naismith) for the second consecutive
season and the third time in her storied career, becoming
the first NCAA Division I coach to pull off that feat and just
the second to do so in back-to-back seasons.
Success for McGraw also has meant coaching great
players. During her illustrious career, the Notre Dame skipper
has coached 16 All-Americans, including 2001 consensus
National Player of the Year Ruth Riley and four-time AllAmerican (and two-time consensus first-team All-America
choice) Skylar Diggins. McGraw also has worked with
15 players who have been selected for USA or Canada
Basketball National Teams, with those players going on to
win a total of 25 medals, including 13 golds.
In addition, McGraw has coached 27 players who have
earned all-conference recognition a total of 58 times, including 21 first-team picks who have been chosen a total
of 35 times, and has helped shape several other national
award winners, namely a two-time Nancy Lieberman Award
recipient (Diggins), two Frances Pomeroy Naismith award
honorees (Niele Ivey in 2001, Megan Duffy in 2006) and
two United States Basketball Writers Association (USBWA)
National Freshman of the Year selections (Jacqueline
Batteast in 2002 and Jewell Loyd in 2013).
Another sign of McGraw’s success has been her ability
to prepare her players for the next level. No less than 27
Notre Dame cagers have gone on to play professionally
(domestically or overseas), including 14 who either have
been drafted or signed as free agents with WNBA teams.
The past 14 seasons have seen the greatest influx of
Fighting Irish talent into the WNBA, with 12 Notre Dame
players having been selected in the league’s annual draft
during that time, including the school’s first three WNBA
lottery picks (Devereaux Peters in 2012 to Minnesota;
Diggins in 2013 to Tulsa; Kayla McBride in 2014 to San
Antonio, all with the No. 3 overall choice), making the Fighting Irish just the second program in the 18-year history of
the WNBA Draft to produce lottery (top-four) selections in
three consecutive seasons.
McGraw’s pupils also have thrived in the WNBA, with
four winning league titles during their professional careers.
Coquese Washington (’92) was the first to hoist the WNBA
hardware with the Houston Comets in 2000, followed three
years later by Riley with the Detroit Shock. Riley and Batteast teamed up to help Detroit to its second crown in 2006,
before Peters became the latest Fighting Irish alum to earn
WNBA championship gold, helping Minnesota to the title
in 2013.
Dedicated to helping grow and further the sport in any
way possible, McGraw has groomed 13 of her former players and/or assistant coaches who currently are serving on
basketball staffs at the college level. Of those 13 protegés,
four presently are Division I head coaches — Bill Fennelly
(Iowa State), Kevin McGuff (Ohio State), Jonathan Tsipis (George Washington) and Washington (Penn State).
McGuff and Washington (along with current Fighting Irish
associate head coach Carol Owens) comprised McGraw’s
assistant coaching staff on Notre Dame’s 2001 NCAA national championship squad, while McGuff and Owens also
were on staff for the Fighting Irish during their run to the
1997 NCAA Final Four (that team also included Ivey and
Beth (Morgan) Cunningham, both of whom are currently
on McGraw’s staff).
A native of West Chester, Pennsylvania, McGraw
earned her bachelor’s degree in sociology from Saint Joseph’s University (Pa.) in 1977. Following graduation, she
coached for two seasons at Archbishop Carroll High School
(50-3 record) in the Philadelphia suburb of Radnor, and two
more at her alma mater as an assistant coach under Jim
Foster (now the head coach at Chattanooga). In 1982,
McGraw was named head coach at Lehigh University, her
teams compiling a sharp 88-41 (.683) record during her
five-year tenure.
McGraw and her husband, Matt, celebrated their 37th
wedding anniversary in 2014 and make their home in
Granger, Ind. They are the proud parents of 24-year-old
son Murphy, a 2012 Indiana University graduate.
