It is indeed St. Patrick's Day, and Notre Dame fans are assuredly delighted their team is in the NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament though I think they will get whacked by Old Dominion in the first round!
In other sports matters, we reported last week that the University of North Carolina had a home women's gymnastics meet against West Virginia. The visiting Mountaineers narrowly won the meet in Chapel Hill, NC, thanks to an outstanding performance from Amy Bieski, who was just named EAGL Conference Gymnast of the Week. Bieski also won the all-around competition.
But, several Tarheel gymnasts had solid performances, including Christine Nguyen who was in a four-way tie with Bieski and two other gymnasts for first place on vault. Nguyen also won the uneven bars. Her Tarheel teammate Kara Wright was tied for Nguyen for first place in the floor competition.
If one is in Chapel Hill today, they may want to stop by the W.B. Yeats Irish Pub which will presumably have a green beer on tap for you.
On Friday night, my friends at Tallula's, a Turkish restaurant on Franklin Street, will have a Mediterranean Night starting at 10:30 p.m.
