Miami holds off Pitt for share of ACC title; Panthers slip to league's 5-seed

CORAL GABLES, Fla. -- All is not totally lost, but it is understandable as to why Jeff Capel did not make any of his players available to talk about No. 25 Pitt's 78-76 loss to No. 16 Miami Saturday here at the Watsco Center.

An emotional stretch run to close this regular season concluded with an emotional afternoon in Coral Gables, Fla., and the final horn sounded as a last-second, do-or-die, near-halfcourt heave from Blake Hinson clanked off of the front of the rim and fell into Nijel Pack's hands to end Pitt's run as the top team in the ACC.
