How the mighty have fallen. Since starting last season 8-0, Notre Dame has lost eight of its last 12 games. This short-lived "Return to Glory" includes two losses against Boston College, that other school that wears the golden helmets.

BOSTON COLLEGE - No undefeated season at stake. No green jerseys. Not even a cameo appearance by Pat Dillingham. Yet, even without the high stakes of last year's game at South Bend, the Boston College-Notre Dame rivalry continued this weekend with more suspense than anyone could have imagined.

"This year, we are just concentrating on our game and no one else's. We all know as a team that if we bring our A-game, we can beat anybody in the country." This type of positive attitude shown by sophomore defender Meghan Nadolski, as well as by the rest of her teammates, has turned this year's women's soccer team into the best Boston College has had in the last eight years.
