"Notre Dame also ran a more patient offense after breaking Trenton’s press, as Mike Walley (13 points) hit all three of his 3-pointers after the break. Seniors Sean Hoggs (24) and Troy Jones (23) also benefited from the pace but the true eye-opener was Isaiah Wong, the freshman from South Brunswick, scored 12 of his 21 points in the second half on a variety of penetration moves."
