UM squanders 15-point lead, goes cold in second half, loses 77-73 to Yale

College basketball took over AmericanAirlines Arena on Saturday with a quadruple-header capped by a University of Miami 77-73 loss to Yale in a night game that went down to the wire.

The Hurricanes were desperate for a win after back-to-back losses to Seton Hall and Rutgers. Instead, they squandered a 15-point second-half lead, missed 11 of their final 12 shots and dropped their third game in a row.

As UM coaches and players trudged off the court, Yale players celebrated at midcourt and sang the Sheck Wes song, “Mo Bamba”, in the hallway while they headed to their locker room.
