Since Notre Dame women’s basketball season concluded, it has seen a rash of players exiting, highlighted by Olivia Miles opting to enter the transfer portal instead of moving on to the WNBA.
The biggest name remaining was Hannah Hidalgo, and the Irish received great news on Saturday afternoon in a story penned by her in The Players Tribune. At the end she claimed “I’m back and I’m ready,” confirming that she will stay another year in South Bend. A good portion of her letter was regarding her family, growing up with four brothers who embodied Dragon Ball Z and going Super Saiyan.
Hidalgo wanted to “turn into a problem,” which very much looked like that for Notre Dame opponents over the last two seasons. This past year she averaged 23.8 points-per-game, 5 rebounds and 3.6 assists while shooting 46.3% from the field.
It’s safe to say that Hidalgo went Super Saiyan on her opponents and that it will continue with the Irish next season.
