Notre Dame Faces Louisville in Pivotal ACC Women's Basketball Matchup
The Fighting Irish aim to recover from back-to-back losses as Hannah Hidalgo's shooting slump raises concerns ahead of the ACC Tournament.
- Notre Dame, previously on a 19-game win streak, has dropped two consecutive games, including a home loss to Florida State after blowing a 15-point lead.
- Hannah Hidalgo, Notre Dame's star player, has struggled in recent games, shooting just 30% from the field and committing nearly as many turnovers as assists over the past five matchups.
- Louisville enters the game with momentum after a dominant win over Clemson, led by freshman standout Tajianna Roberts, who scored 19 points in that game.
- The outcome of this regular-season finale could impact seeding for the ACC Tournament, with Notre Dame and NC State currently tied for the top spot in the conference standings.
- Notre Dame won the previous matchup against Louisville in February, but the Cardinals are looking to capitalize on Notre Dame's recent vulnerabilities.
