Grant Basile is the first Hokie to score 30 points in back-to-back games since 2003.

Cormac Ryan scored a career-high 29 points and 11th-seeded Notre Dame recovered from a grueling First Four win and late-night flight to beat sixth-seeded Alabama 78-64 in the first round of the NCAA Tournament.

The Cavaliers were held to just 3-of-14 shooting from three point range in the road loss.
