Notre Dame star Hannah Hidalgo was forced to remove her nose piercing and miss time in her team’s 70-65 loss to Oregon State on Friday in the Sweet 16.

Oregon State guard Talia von Oelhoffen drives against Notre Dame guard Hannah Hidalgo during the second quarter of a Sweet Sixteen round college basketball game during the NCAA Tournament, Friday, March 29, 2024, in Albany, N.Y.

It was that kind of day for the freshman, who scored just 10 points despite averaging 22.9 per game coming in. Her performance matched a season low in scoring.“It’s tough because you know I was on a roll and having to sit out for five minutes because of a nose ring is BS,” Hidalgo said.“No, clearly I didn’t know the jewelry rule,” Hidalgo said. “But she had told me that I could cover it up. Then she said you can’t cover it up after we were already in the second quarter.

“I guess it was a point of emphasis in the Sweet 16 with jewelry,” Ivey said. “Just wish we would have known beforehand. Can’t control it, so we had to move on.” Hidalgo didn’t score a field goal after reentering the game until there were 57 seconds left. She made just 4 of 17 shots.
