PodKaz hosts Nicole Haase and Todd Milewski go through some of the rules changes in NCAA women's hockey, specifically the attempt to clarify what's legal contact and what should be penalized as body checking.They recap a media webinar with NCAA secretary/rules editor Steve Piotrowski outlining guiding principles (including shoulder-to-shoulder pursuit, end-wall pursuit, forward angle/cutback, and 50/50 battles) and emphasizing judging the action that creates contact rather than the outcome, plus a definition of body checking as a distinct moment of impact using overt hip/shoulder/arm/torso action to separate the puck carrier. Check out the NCAA rule changes here.The NCAA rules page is here.This episode also includes a look ahead at this week's big games: No. 9 Clarkson vs. No. 12 UConn, No. 13 St. Cloud State vs. No. 15 Minnesota State, Providence vs. No. 6 Quinnipiac and our first look at No. 5 Northeastern.The PodKaz is a production of USCHO.com.

Some players dominate the stat sheet. Others completely change the energy of a game the moment they step on the floor. Hannah Hidalgo does both. In this special episode of SportsLifeTalk's You Got Next, we sit down with one of the biggest stars in college basketball and one of the most recognizable names in women's basketball today. From becoming one of the nation's top recruits to emerging as one of the faces of NCAA Women's Basketball at Notre Dame, Hannah shares the mindset, faith, work ethic, and competitive fire that continue to separate her from everyone else. Representing Notre Dame after an incredible high school career in New Jersey, Hannah has built a reputation as one of the most relentless competitors in the game. Whether she's locking down opposing guards for 94 feet, creating steals that ignite fast breaks, attacking the basket, or leading her teammates in pressure moments, she brings an intensity that few players can match. Every possession is played with purpose, passion, and an unwavering desire to win.Throughout the conversation, Hannah reflects on where her basketball journey began. What started as a childhood rec league quickly became something much bigger as she realized she loved competing. From earning the nickname "Buckets" at a young age to becoming one of the nation's most decorated recruits, her story is a reminder that greatness is built one day, one workout, and one challenge at a time.One of the most powerful themes throughout the episode is leadership.

She explains that great defense starts long before the ball is stolen. It begins with preparation, anticipation, studying tendencies, and refusing to let opponents feel comfortable. For Hannah, every defensive possession is personal, and that mentality has helped establish her as one of the game's elite two-way players.Faith has also played a central role throughout Hannah's journey. She openly shares how her relationship with God keeps her humble despite national recognition, awards, NIL opportunities, and growing popularity. Rather than allowing outside attention to define her, she focuses on becoming a better person, teammate, and leader every single day.The episode also provides a glimpse into Hannah beyond basketball. Fans learn about her love for fishing, exploring new cities, trying different restaurants, and spending time with family. Whether she's partnering with brands she genuinely believes in, enjoying chocolate chunk cookies from Insomnia Cookies, or simply relaxing away from the gym, listeners see the authentic personality behind one of college basketball's brightest stars.When discussing Notre Dame, Hannah makes it clear why she continues choosing the Fighting Irish.

Andy and Brendan! went LIVE on YouTube for this Friday morning recording covering the latest in college golf results, LIV golf rumors, and a hot start for Tom Kim at an outdoor golf venue. The two recap Stanford's win at the NCAA Women's Golf Championship and wonder why college golf has not taken off like other non-revenue sports like baseball and softball in recent years. Brendan shares some intel from LIV Korea, where it seems like tensions are high heading into next week's stop in Spain. Talor Gooch has the early lead there, perhaps as a tribute to his beloved Thunder's deep run into the Western Conference Finals. LIV also discontinued its "Any Shot, Any Time" feed on the app, making Andy wonder just how many app viewers are now left in the dark due to this unannounced change. A beefy Flashback Friday on the PGA Tour's history at Colonial Country Club makes for the bulk of this episode. Brendan did some digging and found articles written by one of Lee Harvey Oswald's pallbearers that go into detail about the hijinks about the early days of the PGA Tour's time in Fort Worth. As we come to find out, some articles even quoted a player as naming Colonial “the premier girl-watching stop on Tour." SGS Golf Advice rounds out the week, with Andy, Brendan, and PJ tackling submissions about playing golf with randoms, a late WD from a buddies' tournament, and what to do if someone skins a squirrel they kept in a cart cooler.
