The ‘Canes are dancing in the Sweet 16 once again.

Fifth-seeded Miami beat fourth-seeded Indiana 85-69 in the second round of the NCAA Tournament on Sunday night at MVP Arena in Albany, NY. The victorygave the Hurricanes their second consecutive Sweet 16 appearance for the first time in program history.

Miami’s 85 points are the most the program has scored in an NCAA Tournament game, and that was largely due to ACC Player of the Year Isaiah Wong, whose 27 points on 9-of-17 shooting were a program NCAA Tournament record.
