Edwards' stellar performance marked his ninth double-double of the season. Joseph Girard III (21 points) and Benny Williams (12) each dished out five assists.
HOW THE GAME WAS DECIDED
A driving layup by Girard put the Orange within two of Miami, 78-80, with just four ticks left. Justin Taylor then fouled Beverly Harlond, who connected both of his shots for the Canes. On SU's final possession, Girard attempted to drive to the hoop but was blocked by Norchard Omier as time expired.
HURRICANES HOME ADVANTAGE
Miami and Syracuse traded a pair of layups to open the contest, Jordan Miller opened for the Canes and Benny Williams made his first field goal of the night in the first minute and a half.
