SIDELINES: West Orange alum scores first touchdown for Notre Dame

Dexter Williams, who graduated from West Orange High last spring after going to Olympia for his first three years of high school, scored his first touchdown as a member of the Notre Dame Fighting Irish Sept. 26. 

Williams, a freshman running back, scored after he slashed through the defense of visiting UMass for a 14-yard touchdown run in the third quarter, capping a flurry of 27 Irish points in 9:58, as Notre Dame pulled ahead 48-20. 

The Fighting Irish (4-0) are ranked No. 6 in the nation and will take on No. 12 Clemson (4-0) on Saturday, Oct. 3, at 8 p.m. on ABC.
