Olivia Miles sinks a 3-pointer for Notre Dame

Sonia Citron added nine points, nine rebounds and six assists for the Irish (17-2, 8-0 Atlantic Coast Conference), who have not lost since dropping back-to-back games against TCU and Utah in the Cayman Islands Classic over Thanksgiving weekend.

T’yana Todd scored 18 and Andrea Daley had nine rebounds for Boston College (12-9, 3-5), which had its two-game winning streak halted.

There were six lead changes and three ties in the first quarter, and BC went into the break with an 18-17 lead. The Irish made the first two baskets of the second to take the lead for good.

Takeaways Notre Dame: Hildalgo's rough shooting start and a BC edge on free throws allowed left the Irish trailing after 10 minutes. Once those problems were sorted out, they pulled away.

BC: The Eagles haven't beaten a ranked team since topping No. 10 North Carolina State in 2023. BC last beat a top-3 team in the 2006 NCAA Tournament, besting No. 2 Ohio State.

Key stat Hidalgo was 4 for 14 shooting in the first half and 5 for 9 in the second.

Up next Boston College is at Wake Forest on Sunday. Notre Dame visits Virginia Tech next Thursday.
