The Miami Hurricanes women’s basketball team almost defied gravity this past week, coming just four points shy of defeating the nation’s No. 1 ranked team in the Louisville Cardinals on the road in Louisville, Ky.
Without senior guard Mykea Gray serving as their floor general this season due to an anterior cruciate ligament tear suffered in a preseason practice, the Canes still chugged along with the Cardinals, despite never taking the lead through 40 minutes. An 8-0 run in the middle of the second quarter, however, kept the game within reach and the majority of the college basketball landscape watching.
