Staff Predictions: Notre Dame vs. UNC

·

Well, it only took a home loss and a bye week, but we have finally endured a weekend of Notre Dame football (somewhat) comfortably and with minimal blood pressure spikes. A 31-16 win over a rival surely had this Notre Dame team excited, but they were back to business as usual just as quickly as they had sealed the victory.

Belles prepare for senior night, final home game against Thunder

“I expect the Trine team to be very competitive,” Van de Walle said, “I think they have a dynamic setter in [Jacqueline] Baughman who does a really good job for them. She’s been setting for a long time and can be hard to read. They also have strong pin hitters, especially [Olivia] Jolliffe. When we played them the first time we weren’t at full strength. This time we should be. It will be a good match.”
