Bollinger lead the team with a .296 average and 37 hits. Montoya tops the squad with five home runs, 12 doubles and 28 RBIs.
Notre Dame (13-17, 7-8 ACC) dropped eight of its first nine games to start the season. In conference play, the Fighting Irish were swept by Clemson and Florida State but have recently turned things around with a three-game sweep of Georgia Tech.
