SOUTH BEND, Ind. – After a 9-1 win over Michigan State Wednesday, the University of Notre Dame softball team (20-27) is set to face off against Boston College to close out conference play, starting Friday, April 24th at 6:00 p.m. ET at Melissa Cook Stadium as part of a six game homestand to conclude the 2026 regular season.
Notre Dame is 8-13 this season in ACC play, surpassing its conference win total from last year already (seven in 2025). The Irish secured a series victory last weekend at Syracuse and have won three ACC series this season (at Stanford, Cal, at Syracuse). Notre Dame currently sits in tenth in the ACC standings.
The Irish are 39-12 all-time against Boston College. Those 39 wins are tied for the third-most wins against a single team in program history. In the last 13 games against the Eagles, Notre Dame is 10-3. The Irish are 12-3 all-time against Boston College at Melissa Cook Stadium.
Admission is free to all Notre Dame regular season home softball games. Saturday will be Senior Day, as the Irish program will honor its four seniors before first pitch; Paige Cowley, Micaela Kastor, Ashley Marietta and Mickey Winchell. Sunday will be the annual “Bark at the Park” game, where fans can bring along their furry friends and sit in the left field bleachers.
Due to Notre Dame Football’s “Blue-Gold” game, this weekend series will not be streamed. Live stats can be followed along on StatBroadcast.
