Just an hour after Miami had completed its win over Kent State Wednesday night, the baseball program announced on Twitter that tickets for Friday and Saturday night's game against the No. 2 ranked University of Florida were sold out.
In their first game as the No. 1 team in the country, the Miami Hurricanes showed why they are deserving of the ranking.
Behind a 12-run scoring output in the first four innings of the game, Miami trounced the visiting Kent State Golden Flashes 12-0 Wednesday night at Mark Light Field.
Miami senior Estela Perez-Somarriba faced off against Coco Gauff in the first ever women's tennis match played at the Delray Beach Open. In front of a sold out crowd, the 15-year old Gauff defeated Perez-Somarriba 6-3, 6-3. Here are the best photos from the match:
“Big kudos to us for playing well on the defensive end,” center Rodney Miller said. “That team can really score the basketball, so we did well on the defensive end.”
Miami entered opening weekend with sky high expectations, and the Hurricanes delivered, capping off a three-game sweep of the Rutgers Scarlet Knights with a 13-6 victory Sunday afternoon at Mark Light Field.
A little over 24 hours after competing for the University of Miami women’s tennis team at Georgia Tech, Perez-Somarriba, the reigning NCAA singles champion, faced off against rising star Coco Gauff in an exhibition match in Gauff’s hometown of Delray Beach.
For the first time since Jan. 4, Miami had a full, healthy roster, and it showed, as the Hurricanes rolled past Wake Forest 71-54 at the Watsco Center Saturday afternoon.
"We are obviously disappointed to learn that Freddy's injury will force him to miss our season," Miami head coach Gino DiMare said in a statement. "We are fortunate to have an outstanding medical staff that will take excellent care of Freddy. We wish him well in his recovery."
“I'm not in the position that people think I’m in,” Reed said. “I'm not hiring, I'm not firing. I’m just coming here to help, as I did in ‘97. I'm a piece of this puzzle, as all the coaches are, as all the players are. I'm limited on what I can do. I can't be on the field coaching. I am here to mentor and help these kids, to better themselves during football and after football, that’s what it's about. I’m here to assist coach Manny and everything he needs. I'm his right hand."
