Aba on why she chose Notre Dame:
I chose to commit to the University of Notre Dame because I want to attend a school where I will be surrounded by good people. I love the environment that students, student-athletes, and faculty members alike have created there; everyone is constantly challenging themselves in their respective fields, while also intently serving others.”

Norman on Aba:
“Aba is a very technical and smart player that can play in the midfield or in the back line. She is very strong on the defensive end, whether it be winning 50/50 challenges or in 1v1 battles. She is very strong in possession and has a fantastic range of pass. We believe she will be a perfect fit for our program and are very excited to have her next year.”
