Notre Dame guard Olivia Miles takes in Chicago Sky game

If Notre Dame’s women’s basketball team is going to have a successful 2024-25 season, much of it will depend on olivia milesA. After missing the entire 2023-24 season while recovering from a knee injury she suffered late in the 2022-23 season, she’s ready to get back to action.

With the Irish’s first game several weeks away though, Miles simply can’t stay away from live basketball. So she figured the time was right to leave South Bend for a bit to watch the Chicago Sky host the Washington Mystics. The Sky took notice of her presence and decided to spread the word on social media.

Miles expressed gratitude and also got the chance to talk with injured Sky rookie standout Angel Reese.

The game resulted in an 89-58 win for the Mystics, but Miles got to watch two former Irish players for the Sky. Lindsay Allen scored six points to go with a team-high five assists, and Brianna turner had four points while leading the Sky with three steals.
