The starters played 32-37 minutes each except for Braker who only played 16. There were only 4 subs, Reimers, Cable, Mabrey, and Wright. Wright played less than a minute and didn't take a shot. The other 3 didn't take many shots, Reimers was 2-3, Cable 0-3, and Mabrey 1-2.
McBride, Loyd, and Achonwa took 80% of the shots going 10-22, 6-17, and 9-14 respectively. ND had 12 assists and the big 3 had 11 of the 12.
None of the 4 subs went to the foul line as the starters took all 24 attempts.

ND and Tennessee will meet for the 24th time on Monday night, with the Lady Vols holding a 20-3 edge in the series, including an 8-1 edge in Knoxville. However, the Fighting Irish have won the past three games between the programs, as well as their most recent matchup in Knoxville last season.
Notre Dame leads the nation in field goal percentage (.517), three-point percentage (.436) and assists (22.4 apg.), part of seven NCAA statistical categories that the Fighting Irish rank among the top six (not including won-loss percentage, for which they are one of two remaining teams in the nation without a loss).
Per ND S.I.D.
Per ND S.I.D.
The Fighting Irish entered the weekend leading the nation in assists at 22.4 per game. Notre Dame has dished out at least 21 helpers in 12 games thus far (including a season-high 31 dimes against UCLA on Dec. 7), with the Fighting Irish piling up assists on 65.2 percent of their made field goals this year (358 of 549).
Notre Dame also ranks fourth in the nation (and tops in the ACC) in assist/turnover ratio (1.55).
Notre Dame currently is setting the pace nationally with a .517 field goal percentage, highlighted by nine games this season in which the Fighting Irish have shot better than 50 percent, including five games where they topped 60 percent from the field.
Notre Dame's sharpshooting brigade has been led by senior forward/tri-captain Natalie Achonwa, who ranks fifth in the ACC with a .576 field goal percentage, including a .600 mark in conference play (tied for fourth in the ACC).
Freshman forward Kristina Nelson (.647) and junior forward Markisha Wright (.600) actually have higher field goal percentages than Achonwa, and two others aren't far behind (freshman guard Lindsay Allen at .568 and junior guard Madison Cable at .556), but none has made the minimum number of shots (three per game) to qualify for ranking.
Notre Dame leads the nation with a .436 three-point percentage, with four different players connecting at 40 percent or better from beyond the arc.
Senior guard Kayla McBride leads the way for the Fighting Irish with a .471 three-point percentage that ranks third in the ACC, while sophomore guard Michaela Mabrey also stands among the top five in the conference, ranking fourth at a .443 three-point rate.
In addition, Mabrey is 11th in the ACC with 1.9 three-pointers per game, a mark she bolstered on Jan. 9 against Boston College with a career-high five triples (on six attempts). It was one of four times this season Mabrey has canned at least four treys in a game, and the second time a Notre Dame player has made five three-pointers in a contest (junior guard Madison Cable posted an identical 5-for-6 effort against UCLA on Dec. 7).
In fact, Cable (.464) would be fourth in the ACC in three-point percentage (right between McBride and Mabrey), but she is three made triples shy of the minimum 1.0 3FG/game to qualify for ranking. Freshman guard Lindsay Allen (.500) also doesn't meet the minimum standard despite her efficiency from distance.
As a team, the Fighting Irish connected on 10-of-17 three-pointers in their victory over UCLA, their highest production outside the arc in nearly four years, dating back to a similar 10-triple performance on Jan. 30, 2010, at Syracuse.
The .750 three-point mark (9-of-12) on Jan. 16 at Pittsburgh was Notre Dame's best performance from long range (with a minimum of five attempts) in more than five years, stretching back to Nov. 23, 2008, against Boston College at Conte Forum in Chestnut Hill, Mass., when the Fighting Irish made 7-of-8 three-pointers (.875) in a 102-54 win.
Notre Dame has had at least four players score in double figures in 12 games this year, going 12-0 in those contests.
Another reason for Notre Dame's success this season has been the performance of its reserves, who are averaging nearly 30 points per game and have outscored the opponent's bench by close to a 2-to-1 margin (29.8 ppg. to 15.3 ppg.).
The Fighting Irish second unit has outscored its opposite number in 12 games this season, including a season-high 55 points on Jan. 9 against Boston College, outscoring the entire BC roster by two points (not to mention the Notre Dame starters by 15).
Sophomore guard Michaela Mabrey (9.5 ppg.) and freshman forward Taya Reimer (9.1 ppg.) head up the strong Fighting Irish bench contingent, which has seen players score in double figures 14 different times, including eight by Mabrey.

Doesn't sound right. I'll have to see if I can figure out who it is. I know their JV sported three girls who looked like they could play Middle Linebacker. One was a good 6'2" and was wide. She knew how to use her rump.

Patberg plays for Columbus North. FC played them as well, but I didn't get to see her. I'll have to see if I can figure out who it is. I know Roncalli's JV sported three girls who looked like they could play Middle Linebacker. One was a good 6'2" and was wide. She knew how to use her rump.

I wasn't either until my son in law mentioned it to me. I think she's just a sophomore, so it may just be a verbal at the moment.
