Notre Dame is pretty much the gold standard in the ACC and not far off from that nationally. So it’s no surprise that the Irish took it to the Blue Devils Sunday, winning 72-54 in Cameron.

Duke had 17 turnovers and Notre Dame got 22 points out of that. It was a four-point game at the half but Notre Dame turned it up and ran away from the Blue Devils.

Lexie Brown had 16 points and Rebecca Greenwell had a double-double with 12 points and 10 rebounds.
