On Sunday, the team will play in the first round of the ACC Championship at 1 p.m. The opponent and the location are still to be decided.

Cross Country

The Canes will compete in the ACC Cross Country Championships at 10 a.m. on Friday in Cary, North Carolina. Miami is coming off an excellent performance in which the team took the top five individual places in the men’s 5K and the top four individual places in the women’s 5K.
