Hailey Van Lith's dad is pumped.
The TCU star's college basketball redemption tour is in full swing, and she's making the most of the opportunity to showcase her skills in the NCAA women's tournament.
Van Lith, a senior, delivered 24 points, nine rebounds, and four assists to lead No. 2 TCU past No. 3 Notre Dame 71-62. Whenever the opportunity arose, Van Lith effortlessly sank shot after shot with undeniable style.
The whole stadium was behind Van Lith, but two people in particular — her father, Corey Van Lith, and Orlando Magic guard Jalen Suggs — got hyped up celebrating yet another Hailey Van Lith three-pointer toward the end of the game.

Suggs and Van Lith dated in 2021 when Suggs was a member of the Gonzaga Bulldogs and Van Lith was at Louisville.
Saturday's win made Hailey Van Lith the first player, male or female, to lead three different teams to the Elite Eight.
