Notre Dame’s Arike Ogunbowale Hits National Championship-Winning Shot

WHAT. A. FINISH. 

On Sunday night, Notre Dame‘s Arike Ogunbowale hit a shot that was heard all around college sports when she hit an absurd game-winner at the buzzer to lift the Fighting Irish to a National Championship.

With just three seconds left and the score tied at 58, Ogunbowale took the inbounds pass and run towards the corner and hit an amazing fadeaway shot to absolutely break Mississippi State’s heart.

That is the type of shot is one you’ll see in March Madness highlight reels for years.

But that wasn’t the only clutch shot Ogunbowale hit this weekend. On Friday, she stunned the heavily favored UConn team on Friday with another game-winner.
