March Madness is...

Court side: Zach, Drew, and Will McClimon with Fr. Ralph on Senior Day

...spreading! Many eyes will be watching as the Irish take to the court against Northeastern in Pittsburgh today, but these Irish eyes will be watching intently. Don’t let the youth of Drew, Zach, and Will McClimon, sons of Matt McClimon ‘92, fool you into discounting the predictions of these young prognosticators. They call it as they see it, and they call it right. On what the NCAA tourney holds for the Irish, Will McClimon, age 6, said, "Gold teams are the best. Notre Dame is gold," while Zach McClimon, age 11, said,  "I want to be on Grant's bookstore team - we would win it all." Finally, Drew McClimon, age 14, said, “Pat Connaughton is a slasher.  Kentucky has had real trouble with effective slashers. . . and if Jerian can continue to control the ball and drive the lane . . . and if Zach has consistent success defensively and on the offensive glass… we will make it to Indy.” What can I say, but the oracles have spoken!
