""I feel like I can say that UConn hasn't seen the best Notre Dame. Now we're playing Notre Dame basketball to the best of our ability, and so I think it'll be a fun game.""
""I think before when we played UConn, we played a little afraid. I think we were a little probably starstruck. Being in a stage like that was different.""
Hannah Hidalgo, a junior star for Notre Dame, reflects on the team's growth since their previous 38-point loss to UConn. She asserts that the Irish have not yet shown their best performance against the Huskies. Hidalgo recalls her strong past performances against UConn but acknowledges her struggles in their last encounter. The team's inexperience contributed to their earlier fearfulness on the court. With newfound confidence and experience, Hidalgo believes they are ready for a more competitive game in the Elite Eight.
