It Was. Watching the Final, I Couldn't Help Thinking ....

... the Irish playing in the slots/side of the bracket filled by Harvard, Ohio State, etc. If Entenmann gets hot in goal, he could carry the defense and I've got to think the Cavs could do some serious work on most defenders.

Well, if this isn't an incentive...not just for ND but for the entire ACC.

On the women's side, it will be very interesting. UNC and BC had huge amounts of grad students and COVID years on in their lineups so that should help other teams bridge gaps. Look for Maryland and Northwestern to be strong. The Irish return that wonder frosh class of 2020 but lose their goalie and most defenders. Hmmm.
