Notre Dame’s two basketball teams are in vastly different places for the upcoming season. The men are in their second season under [autotag]Micah Shrewsberry[/autotag], and they expect to be improved. The women have Final Four aspirations with their most stacked team in years.
Now, fans of both programs will have a chance to get their first looks at their teams since March and their first of the 2024-25 iterations of those programs. An open practice will be held at Purcell Pavilion on Oct. 11. The women will take the floor at 2:30 p.m. with the men following 90 minutes later.
Yes, football is on everyone’s mind right now, but that doesn’t mean one can’t excited about basketball in South Bend. The men are a year away from the top-ranked group of commits from the 2025 recruiting class arriving, and the women are expected to contend for a national championship. If you aren’t excited by that right now, it’s not too late:
