Grab a bucket of popcorn after work Tuesday and post up on the living room couch, at the kitchen table or anywhere else you can comfortably watch a live stream. Notre Dame women’s basketball might make it a trifecta of five-star signees in the recruiting class of 2023.

Point guard Hannah Hidalgo of Haddonfield (N.J.) Paul VI High School will announce where she’s going to play college ball at 5:30 p.m. ET Tuesday on ESPN’s SportsCenter NEXT. She’s down to the Irish, Michigan, UCF, Stanford, Duke and Ohio State.

The Irish signed five-star guard Emma Risch on the first day of the early signing period. Saturday, five-star forward Cassandre Prosper chose the Irish over Duke, South Carolina, Arizona and North Carolina. Hidalgo is No. 5 in the ESPN HoopGurlz class of 2023 recruiting rankings. Prosper is No. 16. Risch is No. 20.

The future is already bright in South Bend with several former McDonald’s All-American on a team that is trying to build on a Sweet 16 appearance this past March. Signing three five-star players would only further improve head coach Niele Ivey‘s situation.
