The Notre Dame College Men's basketball team hit the hardwood for the first time in front of some people when they scrimmaged Walsh on Wednesday at Murphy Gym.
" I am excited about our team. It was nice to be back to a little bit of normalcy after the Covid year we are coming off of. We appreciate Walsh for coming out to play us, "Coach Mark Richmond explained.
NDC got off to a quick start with the first group. How those five guys were selected may surprise you:
"We actually voted on the starters today. I knew we were going to play a ton of people. It was the guys who got the most votes though that got the start, "Richmond mentioned.
He continued and talked about his guys maybe being a little too anxious :
"We were maybe a little anxious after that. " The good thing about the mistakes that we made today is that a lot of them are correctable."
Richmond talked about adversity:
"I thought we did not respond to adversity as well as we could have. We didn't play well for 40 minutes but we did do some good things. "
After one more scrimmage on Tuesday the Falcons will open the regular season against Slippery Rock on November 12th.
