The Miami Hurricanes opened Jim Morris’ final season with a victory over the Rutgers Scarlet Knights. The Hurricanes looked tremendous, and UF transfer Danny Reyes was a standout. Mark Light was packed with fans, and they enjoyed a dominant win.
In the top of the first inning the Hurricanes looked to settle in, especially considering that four of Miami’s infielders are freshmen. The Hurricanes did just that, with a quick 1-2-3 inning that saw a display of SS Freddy Zamora’s fielding prowess, including a sliding throw to end the top half of the first.
Unfortunately Miami couldn’t get anything going in the bottom of the first.
