Miami women’s basketball (6-2) lost the final stage of the Miami Thanksgiving tournament at the Watsco Center to the Columbia University Lions (5-2), 78-71. It’s the first time this season that the ‘Canes have lost at the Watsco Center, going 5-0 before the loss.
“Tons of credit to Columbia, they are a veteran team that executed sharply in big moments,” Miami head coach Katie Meier said. “I think they had better game legs than we did and when we got a little bit foggy, they really burnt us for it.”
The Hurricanes had a 57-54 lead in the game after the end of the third quarter.
