Football Practice and Soccer Practice

The Notre Dame Fighting Irish football team is right in the thick of the hardest part of their years– the summer training camps are well underway. The Irish have been dealing with some excessive heat, but as this UND.com article says, they got a little break and were able to work that much harder at preparing for the season. Good luck out there, boys. Keep hydrated.

In soccer news, the Notre Dame girls team has started up their summer workouts. The Fighting Irish women are expected to be, as usual, one of the best women’s soccer teams in the nation. Last year they were the national runners-up and they’re the reigning Big East Conference champs. The Irish have not lost to a conference team in 52 consecutive matches. Knock on wood.

The Irish men’s soccer team was highly active in the off season. Several members played for club teams over the break, which is a good thing– it keeps you sharp and in shape. The Irish were recently ranked in the top 20 for a prestigious college preseason soccer poll.
