SOUTH BEND, Ind. -- Notre Dame Women's Basketball Head Coach Niele Ivey helped coach the United States Under 19 team to FIBA World Cup gold in the Czech Republic on Sunday, making it her second gold as a coach with USA Basketball. 

On July 20, the Americans defeated Australia, 88-76, to win the 2025 FIBA U19 World Cup.

The team, which is made up of a combination of collegiate underclassmen and high school upperclassmen, extended its competition winning streak to 28 games and brought home their 11th tournament title over that span.

Last summer, Ivey earned her first gold medal with USA Basketball when she served as an assistant coach for the 2024 FIBA U18 AmeriCup in Colombia.

She was also a court coach at the 2023 USA Women's U19 National Team trials.

This coming season will be Ivey's sixth at the helm of the fighting Irish. She has a 117-38 record and four consecutive trips to the Sweet 16.
