Northwestern's 1-3-1 defense made Notre Dame work for its shots, and a lot of the ones the Irish did let fly Friday night misfired.
Northwestern's offense was OK, too. John Shurna had a career-high 25 points and freshman Alex Marcotullio shut off rallies with two key 3-pointers as the Wildcats upset No. 23 Notre Dame 72-58 in the Chicago Invitational Challenge.
"We felt that we had a great chance to win," said Northwestern guard Michael Thompson, who had 20 points.
