Korbin Albert, who left Notre Dame after two seasons with the women's soccer program to begin her professional career, won the gold medal with Team USA following Saturday's 1-0 victory over Brazil.

Albert, who started in place of Rose Lavelle, assisted on USA's only goal. Her through ball to Mallory Swanson allowed Swanson to give USA a 1-0 lead in the 57th minute. Albert, 20, became the third-youngest player to ever start for USWNT at the Olympics when she did so in the quarterfinal against Japan.

Albert's sophomore season in 2022 was her last at Notre Dame. She was a Mac Hermann Trophy finalist, the Top Drawer Soccer Player of the Year, a first-team All-American and ACC Midfielder of the Year. She's been playing professionally with Paris Saint Germain since then.

Albert becomes the third former Notre Dame women's soccer player to win an Olympic gold medal after Kate Markgraf neé Sobrero in 2004 and 2008 and Shannon Boxx in 2004, 2008 and 2012.

I am still stunned that Michigan got away with sign stealing using a camera etc , and only received minor penalties. It seems they might be at it again. The ncaa is weak and pathetic. They should have forfeited the 23 season and championship. The Irish sneeze and they come after them. Go Irish

The Notre Dame men's basketball team moved to 2-0 on its 15-day tour of Spain with a 78-60 exhibition victory Sunday over the Valencia All-Stars. The Irish can play up to three games on the tour. Here are some statistical highlights from Sunday's game:

• Markus Burton with a game high 21 points. Plus 8 rebounds, 6 assists and 7 steals. Burton shot 8-of-12 from two-point range
• JR Konieczny with 14 points and 6 boards
• Tae Davis with a near double-double with 10 points, 8 rebounds
• Freshman Cole Certa tallied 8 points behind a pair of made 3s
• Irish outscored Valencia 24-11 in the 4th quarter
• Irish defense forced 22 turnovers and outscored Valencia 29-6 in pts off turnovers
• Scored 25 points on the fast break (to Valencia's 12)

The Irish men's basketball team are touring Spain and played in Madrid today. Notre Dame defeated Madrid All Stars 89-65. Markus Burton had 15 points, 4, rebounds and 4 assists. Braeden Shrewsberry had 11 points, Logan Imes 11, Burke Chebuhar (Grad) 9, Garrett Sundra (FR) 9 & 9. ND was 16-of-38 from 3. Trip continues thru 8/15.

Notre Dame linebackers coach Max Bullough met the media after Saturday's Irish football practice. Really enjoyed this interview. Mild warning, I left the salty language in, and it wasn't a lot. But I think it gives you a better idea of his intensity, so I left it in. Questions were edited in some cases for brevity and clarity.

Previously ...

We just spent some time talking about Notre Dame quarterback commit Deuce Knight on Football Never Sleeps, and I had a source reach out to me during the show. So I've been able to gather some more information after the show.

Riley Leonard couldn't help but have some doubts about his situation following a second ankle surgery this spring. A confident Leonard has returned three weeks away from Notre Dame's season opener.

“But being able to come out here and prove myself this fall camp has just been the best feeling in the world. I did a great job of relating to everybody on this team off the field, but at some point you gotta get in there. You gotta start throwing these guys touchdowns, giving them the ball and really getting after the game with them. Finally, we were able to get that piece of on-the-field chemistry.”

I'll try to drill down on this a little more next Saturday, which is when we get Marcus Freeman in front of us next.

I'm starting to put together a story on Riley Leonard after speaking with him this afternoon. But I thought I'd share this detail first.
