K nowing that the BIG EAST Conference presents its own unique set of challeng- es, top-ranked Notre Dame dives into the heart of league play Friday with a 7:30 p.m. (ET) game against Louisville at Alumni Field. The Irish and Cardinals were picked to repeat last year’s 1-2 finish in the BIG EAST National Division, ac- cording to the preseason coaches’ poll. Notre Dame (8-0) remains one of only four Division I teams in the nation to be unbeaten and untied after a 3-1 victory at No. 17/16 Penn State last Sunday afternoon. The Irish scored three times in the first 33 minutes of play, includ- ing twice in a span of 2:03, to avenge a one-goal loss to the Nittany Lions in South Bend last sea- son. It also was Notre Dame’s fourth win over a ranked foe this season, as well as the 300th career win for head coach Randy Waldrum. Freshman forward Melissa Henderson, senior forward Kerri Hanks, and junior forward Michele Weissenhofer scored the goals for the Irish at PSU, while junior goalkeeper Kelsey Ly- sander made three saves to preserve the win.

Getting The Jump On The CompetitionNotreDame’squickstartthisseasonhasbeenfueledby its lightning-fastbeginningtoeitherthe first or second half. In five games (including all four home games), the Irish have scored a goal in the first 20minutesofplay,with senior forwardKerriHanksowningthefasteststrikeoftheseason(penaltykickat2:39vs.LoyolaMarymountonAug. 29). That marked the 11th-fastest goalof theRandyWaldrumera,andthequickestsinceNov.5,2006,whenHanksstruck57sec-onds into the BIG EAST final against Rutgers (a gametheIrishultimatelywon,4-2).
