Notre Dame women’s basketball recruit Leah Macy made Team USA’s U18 National Team that will compete at the 2024 FIBA U18 Women’s AmeriCup from June 17-23 in Bucaramanga, Colombia.

The 12-member team announced this weekend following three days of trials in Colorado Springs, Colo., also included ND recruiting target ZaKiyah Johnson, a five-star guard in the 2025 class from Louisville, Ky.

Notre Dame head coach Niele Ivey is serving as an assistant coach for the team under Indiana’s Teri Moren, the team’s head coach.

Macy is a 6-3 five-star forward in the 2025 class from Elizabethtown, Ky. She announced her verbal commitment to Notre Dame on May 6 and plans to make it official during the early signing period in November.

Connor Salmin, a 2026 wide receiver at Purcellville (Va.) Woodgrove, reported an offer from Notre Dame on Wednesday.

Salmin caught 53 passes for 1,107 yards and 16 touchdowns as a sophomore last season. He also intercepted four passes and made 29 tackles as a defensive back.

His offer list includes Georgia, Penn State, North Carolina, Virginia and Virginia Tech.

Salmin ran the 100-meter dash in 10.78 seconds and 200-meter dash in 21.31 seconds this spring.

Don't forget you can find the running visitors list above in the sticky threads.

Ryder Frost, a 2025 small forward at Exeter Phillips Exteter Academy in New Hampshire, reported a Notre Dame offer Tuesday.

Frost has been a hot commodity with offers from Syracuse, Nebraska, Minnesota, Wake Forest, NC State, Virginia Tech, Georgia Tech and Notre Dame in the last two two days.

@Eric Hansen and I plan to record our next Inside ND Sports podcast on Tuesday. Send us some questions you'd like us to discuss. We like to give priority to questions submitted on The Insider Lounge.

If you have multiple questions, try to be succinct and ask them separately. Thanks!

Good morning from Decatur Central High School, where the Rivals Camp Series is making its last regional stop in Indianapolis.

We're expecting a number of Notre Dame targets and prospects in attendance today.

The linemen are first up this morning, and they're getting warmed up now.

2025 DE commit Christopher Burgess Jr. is here. He already has an invite to the Rivals Five Star event in late June, but he still wanted to get out here to compete.
