The Notre Dame Fighting Irish are your 2018 National Champions in women’s basketball. It was one of the most incredible Final Fours in history, and it included the two semifinal games that went into overtime, and the national championship that was won in the last second of the game.
After the win over UConn, former NBA star Kobe Bryant tweeted his approval of Notre Dame and its assassin, Arike Ogunbowale.
Big time shot Arike! We are a @UConnWBB family but we love seeing great players making great plays. I know my lil sis @jewellloyd is happy Well done @ndwbb good luck on Sunday #mambamentality https://t.co/8DxHkNURN7

Arike was thrilled that the basketball legend was tweeting about her and the Irish, but Kobe was quick to remind her that the job wasn’t over yet. No matter how awesome that win over UConn was... Notre Dame and Arike needed to finish the job.
Nah... it’s complete by finishing the job on Sunday @Arike_O #MambaMentality https://t.co/pvL95JCZHn

Of course, as we are all recovering a bit from Sunday, The Fighting Irish dis EXACTLY that, and Arike hit another game winning shot to end the game and give Notre Dame the national championship.
After hitting the game-winner over UConn on Friday, Kobe told @Arike_O she had to finish the job on Sunday.
