Miami women’s basketball has dominated inside the Watsco Center.

Now, its next test will involve winning away from Coral Gables for the first time this season, and against an Atlantic Coast Conference opponent.

“We always say that road wins count double in this program, and an ACC road win would count as triple. They’re that hard,” Miami head coach Katie Meier said. “It’s just a matter of toughness and finishing games.”

The Hurricanes (7-3) begin ACC competition Sunday at 2 p.m. against the Virginia Cavaliers (3-8, 0-1 ACC), a team that saw its previous season cut short after five games due to COVID-19.
