SOUTH BEND, Ind. (AP) — Hannah Hidalgo filled the stat sheet scoring 25 points, distributing seven assists, coming up with six steals and five rebounds and 19th-ranked Notre Dame controlled Central Michigan in an 83-51 win on Monday night.
Hidalgo shot 12 of 19 from the floor for the Fighting Irish (5-1). KK Bransford and reserve Iyana Moore each scored 12 points, Cassandre Proper 11 and Gisela Sanchez 10. Notre Dame shot 54% (37 of 69) but made just one trip to the free-throw line, which Hidalgo sank.
Madi Morson scored 15 points for Central Michigan (4-2).
Bransford’s basket with 4:15 left in the first quarter gave Notre Dame an 11-8 lead. Nekhu Mitchell responded with a 3-pointer to even the score for the Chippewas. Notre Dame countered outscoring Central Michigan 9-4 to close the quarter up 20-15.
With 5:39 before halftime, Moore made a 3 to give the Irish their first double-digit lead at 29-18. Morson made 1 of 2 foul shots with 1:19 before the break to get Central Michigan within single digits for the last time at 35-26.
