Notre Dame vs. DePaul Game Highlights</B>



SOUTH BEND, Ind. (AP)--Tim Abromaitis scored 30 points, Luke Harangody added 24 and Ben Hansbrough had 15 points, 10 rebounds and seven assists to pace Notre Dame to an 87-77 win over DePaul on Saturday.
The Fighting Irish (15-5, 4-3 Big East), who ended a two-game losing streak, started the game with a 7-0 run, and the Blue Demons never got closer than five. DePaul used a 7-2 run to close to 77-71 with 69 seconds left on a 3-pointer by Mike Stovall.
But Harangody scored on an alley-oop pass from Abromaitis with 59 seconds left, then added two free throws with 49 seconds left to put the game way.
Notre Dame didn't commit its first turnover until Hansbrough had the ball stolen with 10:32 left in the game. The Irish finished with a season-low two turnovers. Will Walker led DePaul (8-11, 1-6) with a career-high 35 points on 15-of-30 shooting. <!-- STORY AD BEGINS HERE -->

A nice win for ND, considering it never trailed. Also nice to see Nash contributing. But it was also maddening to see their pg do whatever he wanted against ND's defense. He torched them. And DePaul is not a very good team. Abromaitis went off though, and Gody was Gody. Nice to pick up a win.

On a football note, Shaq Evans (among others including Manti Te'o) was seen collecting donations for Haiti relief. Nice to see him helping out around campus after so many rumors of him transferring were out there. I think he's going to love playing in Kelly's offense...

It is nice to be back in the W column. Even with the win being against a lower tier Big East team, it should be a good RPI day with UCONN and WVU having big non-conf wins; and even UCLA had a nice game.

Yeah a win in the Big East is nothing you can take for granted, no matter who you're playing.
