Notre Dame Basketball: Key’s to beating Hampton

It’s time to move on. The Notre Dame basketball team was snubbed out of the NCAA Tournament Sunday night, but there’s still a trophy to be won. After being named a 1-seed in the NIT, Notre Dame will first be challenged by 8-seed Hampton.

There’s no reason that Notre Dame shouldn’t come out on the winning side of this, but disappointment is motivation’s greatest enemy. There will be a few things Notre Dame will need to do in order to beat Hampton.

Rebound

Hampton is not a big team. They are undersized and should be no match for Bonzie Colson and Martinis Geben.
