CHARLOTTE, N.C. (WNDU) – As we’re getting later into the fall, that means that the college basketball season is right around the corner — and the Notre Dame men are bringing in some high expectations this season.
It will be head coach Micah Shrewsberry’s third year leading the program, and the Irish are coming off a season where they went 15-18. But this year, they bring back a lot of that talent as well as several high-profile freshman and transfers.
They start the regular season on Nov. 3 at home against LIU Brooklyn, but today Shrewsberry was down in North Carolina for ACC Media Days to preview this season
“We have seven total returnees and added a top 10 recruiting class in the country,” Shrewsberry said. “Also added the nation’s leading rebounder in Carson Tout from Northern Arizona, so we’ve put together a group that is ready to compete, ready to really help our league take the next step.”
Before the regular season tips off, the Fighting Irish will play two exhibition games. The first will be at Butler next Friday, Oct. 17, and the second will be at home against DePaul on Oct. 24.
