“Credit to Miami, we just could not contain the ball and it cost us the game,” said Notre Dame coach Muffett McGraw. “Our offense was just off. They made really big shots. We have a really good inside game, but they had the better inside game. Really disappointing. They played harder.”

“They’re a great team, can score like crazy, but we never panicked, went deep into the shot clock to limit their possessions, and that was our game plan,” said (Miami Coach Katie) Meier.

“They wanted it more than we did,” said (Jessica) Shepard. “We have to find a way to make stops.”

Statistics:

- Jessica Shepard led the Irish with 17 points and 17 rebounds. Marina Mabrey and Jackie Young each scored 14. Arike had 13 points on 4-of-15 shooting.

- For Miami, UM senior forward Emese Hof made her first six shots and scored a game-high 21 points. She also had a team-high 13 rebounds. Beatrice Mompremier, the other half of UM’s formidable starting front court, had 18 points and 12 rebounds. Taylor Mason scored 13, Mykea Gray had 10, and Cornelius dished out a game-high six assists.
