Notre Dame Women’s Lacrosse: Irish To Face Stanford in NCAA Tournament

The Notre Dame women’s lacrosse team will begin its seventh NCAA Tournament run in eight seasons Friday when they play Stanford at Ryan Fieldhouse in Evanston, Ill.

The Irish (13-4) will face Stanford (13-5) for the first time since 2016, with the winner playing fourth-seeded Northwestern (14-4) on Sunday. The Wildcats are not only Big Ten Tournament champions, they beat Notre Dame, 15-11, on April 20.

Game time for the first round game is to be determined.

“It’s great to be one of the 28 teams that gets to practice together for at least another week,” Coach Christine Halfpenny told UND.
