The Notre Dame Fighting Irish Women’s Basketball team competed for the chance to get to Monday’s Elite 8 game in the Greenville 1 Region. Unfortunately, the Irish came up short in the ultimate goal. Maryland were too much for the Irish as the game ended as a 76-59 victory for the Terps.
The game began as more of a back-and-forth affair with the Terps leading 16-14 after the first quarter. The Irish were admittedly struggling, having 8 turnovers in the first 10 minutes of the game. However, the Irish had a 13-0 run in the second quarter and were dominating in the paint to take a halftime lead.
