Moments make history. Sunday night against Purdue, the Notre Dame women's basketball team had a lot of moments — and made a lot of history.

"It's the greatest moment in our basketball history at Notre Dame," head coach Muffet McGraw gushed to reporters following the women's first-ever NCAA basketball title.

But while Sunday night's moments were undeniably history in the making, the win was just one in a series of moments that have constructed a dream March Madness run for the Fighting Irish.
