Notre Dame is about to find out just how strong it is in the NCAA Tournament, and it begins against Massachusetts. Never mind that it’s an ACC team going up against the Atlantic 10 Tournament champion. Everything goes out the window it takes only one loss to end your season. The Irish might have had a better season than the previous few, but the Minutewomen will come out just as hungry to prove themselves on the biggest stage.
You could look at the above chart and interpret it a couple of ways. The Irish have lower numbers in a lot of categories either because they have greater distribution of stats among their rotation, or the Minutewomen have players who are able to carry the team to victory almost by themselves. Whatever it is, we don’t know how much it will factor into the final score of this game. All we know is only one team will be able to say it was their leaders that paved the way to victory.
