After an off day Monday, Notre Dame alums returned to competition Tuesday, with Melissa Tancredi competing in the women’s soccer semifinal for Canada against Germany and Natalie Achonwa representing Canada’s women’s basketball in the quarterfinals against France.
Both teams failed to advance, with Tancredi’s squad falling 2-0 to the Germans after besting them by the same margin in group play. Tancredi had scored twice in that win, but she was silent Tuesday, recording no shots on goal in 85 minutes played.
With the loss, Canada still has the opportunity to grab a bronze medal, equaling its performance in London four years ago.
