Overview
- Michigan led wire to wire at Wayne State Fieldhouse in Detroit, handing Notre Dame its worst defeat in more than two decades.
- Hannah Hidalgo, three days removed from a 44-point, 16-steal game, was held to 12 points on 4-for-21 shooting with seven turnovers.
- The Wolverines dominated the glass 50-28 and second-chance points 19-5, while the Irish shot 28% overall and 2-for-22 from three.
- Olivia Olson paced a balanced Michigan effort as Syla Swords, Mila Holloway and Ashley Sofilkanich also scored in double figures and the bench produced broadly.
- Michigan framed the win as payback for last season’s NCAA loss and now turns to Binghamton before a trip to face No. 1 UConn, while Notre Dame hosts No. 8 USC next.
