12 p.m. Feb. 24 – No. 14 Miami vs. No. 22 Florida State Miami welcomes rival Florida State to the Watsco Center on Sunday for their six matchup with a ranked opponent this season. Florida State emerged with a 62-58 home victory in a sloppy game in which both teams shot less than 37 percent…
“I’ve talked about setting the tone for the season, and I don’t think you can draw it up any better than that,” DiMare said.
“I’m sure when I’m retired and sitting on the beach somewhere, I’ll think about this as the greatest win, but these wins can be canceled out really quick if you don’t focus on the next one,” Miami coach Katie Meier said after the 350th victory of her career. “We’re on a mission and we just have to keep getting better.”
Highly touted high school prospect Alex Toral struggled mightily during his freshman season for the Hurricanes. However, his sophomore campaign has been a different story. The power-hitting first baseman slugged his second home run in as many games to lead the Hurricanes to a 7-1 victory over the Rutgers Scarlet Knights Saturday evening at Alex…
“Our starting pitching is our strength, no doubt” DiMare said. “But if we can find a way to score some runs, which has been our bug-a-boo the last two years, we’ll win our share of games.”
“I look forward to every game. Hopefully I can do this for another 35 years,” Pate said.”
12 p.m. Feb. 9 – Miami vs. No. 8 North Carolina The Tar Heels have already beaten the Hurricanes this season, 85-76 at the Watsco Center on Jan. 19. Both teams played well offensively in that game, but a late 3-point barrage led by senior Cam Johnson helped UNC pull away. Things will be even…
“I want to be ranked first, honestly,” Perez-Somarriba said. “That’s the reason why I wake up in the morning and I go to practice and give my best. Obviously, winning the national title is in my mind. Daily work is the only way to impact those results. All the accolades are extra. I’m improving so much as a person. I’m learning so much from my coaches, from my teammates so all these accolades are great, but they’re extra.”
2 p.m. Feb. 2 – Miami @ No. 3 Virginia The brutal Atlantic Coast Conference schedule continues for Miami as they travel to Charlottesville to face the Virginia Cavaliers. Tony Bennett’s squad runs one of the best defensive systems in the country. Bennett’s pack-line defense has been confusing opposing offenses since he took the job,…
A rough week only got rougher for the Miami Hurricanes on Wednesday evening. Just two days after Dewan Hernandez was ruled ineligible by the NCAA, which prompted Hernandez to withdraw from the University of Miami and turn pro, the short-handed Hurricanes were no match for No. 12 Virginia Tech. The Hokies controlled play from start…
7 p.m. Jan. 31 – Miami @ No. 24 Florida State The Seminoles (17-3, 5-2 ACC) have stumbled of a late, dropping two of their last five games, but enter this matchup firmly in the top half of the Atlantic Coast Conference. Florida State relies heavily on juniors Kiah Gillespie, Nicki Ekhomu, and Nausia Woolfolk….
“I was advised of the NCAA’s decision about my eligibility and am very disappointed with the outcome. I do not believe that the NCAA treated me fairly, and it is with a heavy heart that I have decided to withdraw from the University of Miami to prepare for the 2019 NBA Draft,” Hernandez said via Twitter.
