Getting To Know … JUNIOR WIDE RECEIVER CJ PROSISE ✦ GIMME FIVE Notre Dame moved up to No. 4 in the Learfield Directors' Cup standings released on April 10. Thanks to finishing second in women's basketball, sixth in fencing, 16th in women's swimming and diving, and 30th in men's swimming and diving during the winter sports season the Irish are one of four ACC teams ranked in the current top eight. The Fighting Irish amassed 363.25 points during the winter season (with an ap- pearance in the 16-team NCAA Tournament in men's hockey not yet included) after accumulating 310.0 points during the fall, highlighted by 100 points for the national title in men's soccer. Since the advent of the Directors' Cup in 1993, Notre Dame's highest placement was No. 6 in 2005-06. Last year, it finished No. 9. Stanford has won the award 19 consecutive years and is on track to make it 20 this year. The Irish are likely in for a drop during the "warm weather season" in spring, although several of their teams are ranked. School League Points 1. Stanford Pac 12 997.75 2.
