Notre Dame-Old Dominion: FREE Live Video |
NCAA Tournament Central

It was a beautiful St. Patrick’s Day in New Orleans on Wednesday, and the University of Notre Dame basketball team spent most of the day inside – preparing for their first-round matchup with Old Dominion on Thursday in the first round of the NCAA Championship.

Und.com is on the road with the Irish and spent the day with the team – the open practice, the media sessions, the private practice at Tulane University and even on the team bus – which received a police escort through the rush hour traffic late in the afternoon.
