Jessica Thomas doesn’t pick up her golf clubs too often these days.
As a senior guard on the 14th-ranked University of Miami women’s basketball team, she has very little free time. The Hurricanes are in the midst of a brutal stretch, during which six of seven opponents are ranked.
They did not have a chance to dwell on their Sunday loss to seventh-ranked Notre Dame because they have undefeated No. 15 Virginia Tech coming up at home on Wednesday night. The Hokies (15-0) are one of three undefeated teams in the nation, along with top-ranked UConn and fourth-ranked Mississippi State.
