Though the student section was vacant for the Thanksgiving holiday, Miami men’s basketball was certainly alive as it coasted to a 79-56 victory over the St. Francis Brooklyn Terriers on Wednesday night at the Watsco Center.
After previously suffering a tough loss to Maryland in the Hall of Fame Tip-Off Tournament championship game on Sunday, the ‘Canes improved to 5-1 on the season, powered primarily by the impressive work of their transfer players.
Kansas State transfer Nijel Pack scored 23 points, which was the most by a Hurricane this season. Pack made 9 of his 13 field goal attempts, including 3 of 6 shots from beyond the arc.
