As successful as Notre Dame was last season, having [autotag]Olivia Miles[/autotag] available might have brought more success. All the Irish can worry about now though is this season, and Miles already is making up for lost time.
In the Irish’s season-opening victory against Mercyhurst, Miles immediately made an impact by recording her fourth career triple-double. She followed that with a 17-point performance in the Irish’s blowout win over Purdue. Her biggest moment in that game didn’t show up in the box score though.
With time running out in the third quarter and the Irish already up by 30, Miles launched a prayer from beyond half-court to try and beat the buzzer. At the exact moment that buzzer sounded, the ball found nothing but the bottom of the net.
It was a moment worthy of being shown on every sports highlight show in the country, and you’ll agree after you see it:
Miles is on a mission this season, and it will be beautiful to watch.
