IRISH GET OFFENSIVE The Notre Dame offense is averaging 10.8 goals in the last four games after averaging 6.7 goals in the first six contests of the season. SPREADING THE WEALTH Nineteen different Notre Dame players have scored a goal this season. The Fighting Irish used a season-high nine goal scorers in the 13-6 win over St. John s (April 1). The Irish had eight different goal scorers in wins over Denver (10-9 in 3OT), Rutgers (12-9) and Georgetown (9-7). MARLATT MAKING AN IMPACT Sophomore midfielder Jim Marlatt leads the Irish in goals (14) and points (20), while his six assists are tied for the team lead. Marlatt did not play last season due to injury. Marlatt has a team-best five multiple-goal games this season. Marlatt was named the MVP of the Notre Dame-St. John s game at the Big City Classic. Marlatt scored a game-high - and career-high - three goals in the Irish victory. All three goals came within a span of 1:19 to increase Notre Dame s lead to five (10-5) by the 11:15 mark of the fourth quarter. CAPTURING THE CLOSE ONES Notre Dame s four true road wins this season have come by a combined five goals. Notre Dame has played five one-goal games this season. All five of those contests were in succession. The Irish went 4-1 in those games, including two overtime victories. Notre Dame s lone loss this season was a 4-3 overtime setback to Penn State. It was the first time in program history that Notre Dame played five straight one-goal games. It also was the first time the Fighting Irish had ever captured four straight one-goal decisions. The 10-9 win over Denver was the first triple-overtime game in Fighting Irish history. RANDALL A LOWE S SENIOR CLASS AWARD FINALIST Notre Dame defenseman Kevin Randall is one of 10 finalists up for the 2012 Lowe s Senior CLASS Award in the men s lacrosse division. To be eligible for the award, a student-athlete must be classified as an NCAA Division I senior and have notable achievements in four areas of excellence community, classroom, character and competition. CONSISTENCY IN THE CAGE Junior John Kemp is the third straight Notre Dame goalie to receive All-America honors. Kemp was an honorable mention All-America selection by the United States Intercollegiate Lacrosse Association (USILA) last season. Scott Rodgers earned third-team All-America honors in 2009 and was an honorable mention pick in He also was named the Most Outstanding Player of the 2010 NCAA Championship. Joey Kemp, John s older brother, was a three-time All-America honoree at Notre Dame. He copped first-team honors in 2008 in addition to honorable mention accolades in 2006 and A DEPENDABLE DEFENSE Over the last five seasons, the Notre Dame defense has been one of the best in the nation. The Irish are the only team in NCAA Division I to finish in the top five nationally in scoring defense in each of those five campaigns. Notre Dame produced the nation s top defense in 2009 by allowing a program-record 6.19 goals per game. The Irish were second in 2010 (7.53) and 2011 (6.57), fourth in 2007 (6.66) and fifth in 2008 (7.04). Since the beginning of the 2007 season (a span of 89 games), the Irish defense has limited opponents to seven goals or fewer 62 times. Notre Dame has held foes to four goals or fewer 16 times during that stretch. Notre Dame has surrendered 10 goals or more in a game just 10 times since the beginning of the 07 season. The Irish have allowed more than 10 goals just once in the last 28 games. FORMIDABLE FOES Notre Dame is 5-1 against teams currently in the top 25 of the RPI. There are eight teams on Notre Dame s 2012 schedule that appear in the top 25 of the RPI. The Irish are sixth in the RPI. HOME SWEET HOME Notre Dame is 38-4 (.905) at home since the beginning of the 2006 season. CALL HIM CLUTCH Senior attackman Sean Rogers scored three consecutive game-winning goals earlier this season, including two overtime tallies. Page 3
