Another sports power couple is still going strong. 

Dallas Cowboys linebacker Marist Liufau and WNBA rookie Sonia Citron, both Notre Dame Fighting Irish alumni, have been dating for four years. 

Citron, 21, who just finished an impressive first season with the Washington Mystics, was spotted on the sidelines on Sunday supporting Liufau before his team defeated the New York Giants 37-40. 

In a video shared to the Cowboys' official Instagram account, the WNBA star could be seen chatting with Liufau and a teammate on the sidelines. 

The Cowboys captioned the post, "Power Couple ⭐️." 

Citron sported her new beau's No. 35 Cowboys jersey paired with denim shorts and white sneakers, as she held a cowboy hat in one hand.

Fans were quick to praise the athletic couple, with one fan writing, "I'm a mystics fan and cowboys fan 😍🔥 I need a signed jersey for both."

"If y'all keep posting Soni and Marist, I will have to start following the cowboys," a second person wrote. 

"Heck yes!!! My favorite @wnba rookie!! We love a supportive 👸," another added. 

The WNBA star met Liufau at Notre Dame, where they were both star athletes. 

Citron served as a key member of the team's women's basketball team. During her time with the fighting Irish she was awarded the ACC's Rookie of the Year award before being selected as the third overall pick by the Mystics in this year's draft. 

Liufau completed a strong career with Notre Dame's football team in 2023 before joining the Cowboys as the 87th overall pick in the third round of the 2024 draft. This is Liufau's second year in the NFL.
