🌟 HISTORY MAKING HANNAH

THE NOTRE DAME STAR HAS A GAME FOR THE AGES

Hannah Hidalgo had the game of her life.

On November 12, Notre Dame hosted the University of Akron. Notre Dame won 85-58 to improve their record to 3-0 on the season, and Hidalgo’s all-around excellence set the tone.

Hidalgo set a school record in points with 44 and an NCAA record in steals with 16 (yes, SIXTEEN!) in only 28 minutes of playing time.

In a season of transition following the transfer of Olivia Miles, Hidalgo knows she has to take her game to new heights.

“I know that’s what they need from me,” Hidalgo said postgame. “I want to be able to be consistent. I know I have to bring it defensively, and I told my teammates that I would be aggressive on the defensive end.”

For Hidalgo, this season represents her most significant challenge thus far in college. Notre Dame isn’t expected to compete for the ACC Championship this season, and the Fighting Irish aren’t as deep this year following the exits of Miles, Sonia Citron, and Maddy Westbeld.

Hannah has been one of the best players in the country for a while now, and she’s gotten even better this season. If Notre Dame goes on a big run this spring, their young superstar will be the driving force behind it.
