The Notre Dame Fighting Irish have been through a lot over the past couple of weeks. From a heartbreaking loss in the NCAA Tournament to losing Olivia Miles, it hasn’t been easy.
Miles left the program and transferred to play for the TCU Horned Frogs, and that sparked some rumors about tension between her and star point guard Hannah Hidalgo.
Replacing a player of Miles’ caliber won’t be easy. However, the program didn’t rest on its laurels. According to Sean Stires of Yahoo Sports, they’ve landed European forward Gisela Sanchez.
Notre Dame gets Spanish forward
“Notre Dame women’s basketball has picked up more front court help via the transfer portal. Niele Ivey’s Fighting Irish, who just saw three players drafted by WNBA teams earlier this week and lost four players from this year’s roster to the transfer portal, have received a commitment from Kansas State forward Gisela Sanchez,” wrote Stires.
Hannah Hidalgo
Standing at 6-foot-4, the senior forward spent the past couple of seasons playing for KSU after beginning her collegiate career in Arizona. She averaged 4.2 points and 3.1 rebounds in 15.4 minutes per game.
There will be plenty of attention paid to this program next season. With JuJu Watkins potentially not playing and Paige Bueckers turning pro, all eyes will be set on Hannah Hidalgo.
