Overview
- Cal won 72-71 after officials ultimately ruled a made three came with a shooting foul, creating a go-ahead four-point play in the final seconds.
- The crew first signaled an and-1, changed it to a foul before the shot, then conferred and restored the basket plus a free throw with about five seconds left.
- Notre Dame had led most of the night, including by 12 in the first half, and was up 69-65 with 16 seconds remaining.
- After Cal took the lead, Notre Dame advanced the ball out of a timeout with 2.4 seconds left, but Braeden Shrewsberry’s last-second three missed.
- When the horn sounded, Irish coach Micah Shrewsberry rushed toward an official and was held back by staff as the teams headed to the handshake line.
