Notre Dame, Michigan Set For 2025 Shamrock Classic In Detroit

For the fourth time in as many years, NBC will televise a Notre Dame women's basketball game

SOUTH BEND, Ind. — With the Notre Dame women’s basketball season less than a month away, the Irish have announced the final piece of the 2025-26 slate. 

On Nov. 15, Notre Dame and Michigan will take their gridiron rivalry to the basketball court for the fourth annual Shamrock Classic. The game will be played at Wayne State Fieldhouse in Detroit and air on NBC at 4 p.m. It is the fourth consecutive year Notre Dame women’s basketball has played on the national network. 

The Wolverines and the Irish are very familiar with each other, as they faced off in the Round of 32 in the 2025 NCAA Tournament. The Irish earned the victory in their home court, 76-55. Hannah Hidalgo paced Notre Dame with 21 points, going 8-14 from the floor. 

As has been the case with previous iterations of the Shamrock Classic, there will be additional programming throughout the weekend, including a leadership luncheon with the teams on Friday. Sponsors of this year’s upcoming Shamrock Classic event include current Notre Dame Athletic partners: Gatorade, Invesco QQQ, Nissan, Under Armour and Verizon.

Notre Dame is 14-8 all-time against Michigan, and the Irish have faced the Wolverines just one other time on a neutral court (2001). 

Tickets for the 2025 Shamrock Classic will go on sale to the public on Oct. 8 at 11 a.m. ET.
