UConn and Notre Dame used to be one of the great women’s college basketball’s rivalries, dating back to the teams time together in the Big East.
Since 2011, the two have eliminated each other seven times from the NCAA tournament. UConn is 38-16 all-time against Notre Dame, but 5-5 in the last 10 matchups. The Fighting Irish have dominated of late, winning the last three games.

Notre Dame (12-5) has had up-and-down season. Point guard Hannah Hidalgo is still a star — ranking first nationally in steals and third in scoring — averaging 25 points, 6.2 rebounds, 5.6 assists and 5.6 steals. Cassandre Prosper is adding 19 points over the last 10 games for the Fighting Irish.
