The Irish will face eight opponents who made the NCAA Championship field last season, including national champions Boston College.

“We are thrilled to attack the 2022 schedule,” said Halfpenny. “The ACC will again be the strongest conference in the country and we are excited to add Pitt to the conference line-up. Additionally, as always, we look forward to a strong out-of-conference schedule that includes teams from multiple conferences: B1G, Big East, MAC, Ivy League, ASun, AAC. The opportunity to play 8 teams that competed last year in the NCAA tournament will benefit our team throughout the season as we strive to achieve our goals of competing for ACC and NCAA Championships.”

Notre Dame returns a pair of IWLCA All-American honorees in Bridget Deehan and Kasey Choma, along with IWLCA All-Region honorees in Madison Aher, Choma and Deehan. Six Irish took All-ACC honors including First-Team honorees Deehan , Madison Ahern, Maddie Howe and Kasey Choma each earned Second Team honors while Keelin Schlageter was named to the ACC’s All-Freshman Team.

The Irish also welcome a seven member freshman class including an attacker, four midfielders and two goaltenders that hail from six different states. In the class of 2025 the Irish have brought in two USA Lacrosse All-Americans in Julie Carr and Grace Weigand, as well as Under Armour All-American watch list honorees in Ava Kristynik and Marleigh Sanders.
