Notre Dame had won four straight home games and Aiden Bellavia did his part to make it five on Friday. The Notre Dame Fighting Irish secured a 68-64 W over the Oakfield-Alabama Hornets for which the team can thank Bellavia, who dropped a double-double with 23 points and 11 rebounds. Thanks to that strong game, he now owns an excellent 41.5% three-point shooting accuracy.

Another player making a difference was Evan Fitzpatrick, who posted ten points. What's more, he also posted an 80% shooting accuracy, which is the highest he's achieved since back in January of 2024.

Notre Dame is on a roll lately: they've won six of their last seven games. That's provided a nice bump to their 15-6 record this season. They've dominated over that stretch too, winning by an average of 22.7 points. Oakfield-Alabama's defeat dropped their record down to 9-11.

Notre Dame didn't take long to hit the court again: they've already played their next contest, a 71-68 loss against York on the 3rd. Oakfield-Alabama does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
