Notre Dame Point Guard to Return Next Season: Kyle McAlarney, who has been suspended by the Fighting Irish and was not allowed to attend classes this semester after being arrested for possession of marijuana, will return to Notre Dame this summer to take courses and will rejoin the team next semester. McAlarney’s decision was relayed to coach Mike Brey during a meeting between Brey and McAlarney’s family. Brey was in New York following Notre Dame’s loss to St. John’s. McAlarney, who had started 12 games for the Irish and was averaging 10 points a game before his suspension, will have two seasons of eligibility remaining. [1/30/07]
