A bunch of Miami Hurricane youngsters — and one former Gator-turned-Cane — made the University of Miami baseball team feel relevant again Friday night at Mark Light Stadium.
Hurricanes coach Jim Morris started an all-freshman infield for the first time in his 25 opening nights as the Miami skipper, and between that infield’s impressive play and the ball-smacking production of one-time Gator Danny Reyes, last year’s inability to qualify for the NCAA tournament seemed more distant by the second.
The Canes defeated Rutgers 7-1 on Morris’ first night of his final season after 41 years as a head coach.
