INDIANAPOLIS – Hannah Hidalgo was named to the USBWA National Team of the Week following her 30-point triple double in Sunday’s win to help the Irish improve to 9-2 on the season.
Hidalgo recorded her second career triple-double in the win. The 30-point triple-double is the first in program history.
Hidalgo continues to rewrite the Notre Dame record books, as she broke the program record for career games with 30 or more points (12), passing Arike Ogunbowale for the top spot.
The junior finished with 30 points on 13-of-17 shooting, 13 steals, 10 assists and five rebounds in just 22 minutes of action. Hidalgo accounts for three of the top four scoring performances amongst all ACC players this season.
Hidalgo’s 13 steals mark the third time the junior has recorded double-digit steals in a game in her career, with two coming this season (she set the NCAA record with 16 in a win vs. Akron).
The Irish are back in action after Christmas, opening up the home portion of the ACC schedule against Pitt at 6 p.m. ET on Monday, Dec. 29 inside Purcell Pavilion. The game will air on ACCN.
