There had been a slew of questions Saturday, the day after Notre Dame and Mississippi State had advanced to the national title game in an instant classic of a Final Four, as to how the two programs planned to top their thrilling semifinal bouts.

In its answer, Notre Dame decided not to mess with perfection.

With three seconds left in the NCAA tournament championship game Sunday, the same Notre Dame guard who hit the buzzer-beater to upset No. 1 seed Connecticut in overtime in Friday’s national semifinal had the ball in her hands again. Arike Ogunbowale launched herself, legs splayed in the air, and put as much power as she could into a confident three-pointer from the far right corner with a defender’s hand in her face.

Editor’s note: This post contains discussions about suicide, including quotes from a suicide note.

It was one month into the New Year and MarShawn McCarrel had a lot going for him. He’d just turned 23 years old. His family and friends loved him. He’d recently gotten back from Los Angeles, where he’d traveled to attend the NAACP Image Awards with his mother, Leatha Wellington, as his date.

He was also getting ready to start a new job in Washington, D.C. — a stark but exciting change from his hometown of Columbus, Ohio. A new romantic relationship seemed to be moving along nicely. His friends say he showed no obvious signs that anything was wrong.

Then on Feb. 8, McCarrel logged onto Facebook and typed an ominous status update. “My demons won today,” he wrote at 2:37 in the afternoon. “I’m sorry.” A few hours later, he climbed the steps of the Ohio Statehouse in downtown Columbus, put a gun to his head and pulled the trigger.
