We’ll take it…

I don’t spend too much time covering other Canes-related sports outside of football. It’s not for a lack of love all things The U-related. It’s just hard to see and follow basketball and baseball out here from the left coast.

That said, come tourney time I have an ability to follow Miami. Whether it’s March Madness or the College World Series, when it nears the post-season it’s much easier to see some action on the tube.

Miami took down Maryland in the ACC tourney yesterday, 67-62. ESPN chose not to broadcast it, but between highlights and listening on the Internet, it was the next best thing. The Canes don’t really look to go anywhere in the tourney, but after a heartbreaking season it’s great to see these kids get to taste a post-season victory.

The U dressed eight scholarship players, due to injuries and suspensions, yet stunned the No. 20 Terrapins. Miami takes on Boston College today, a team which beat the Canes twice this season. Will the third time be Miami’s charm? Probably not. But it’ll still be worth watching and hoping the Canes and upset the Eagles and keep their season alive for another day.
