The Notre Dame women's basketball team plays tonight in their second straight Final Four. I shot for the IU Student News Bureau last year, so I had the opportunity to sit on the baseline at Conseco Fieldhouse (now Bankers Life Fieldhouse) as they played to a home crowd against Texas A&M for the national championship. They lost, but meeting Elsa Garrison from Getty was cool. What wasn't cool was my hard drive dying the next day, so I was too preoccupied with regaining a working computer to post these photos to the blog. Until now. Yay, news peg!
