Syracuse capitalized on Miami’s struggles on Sunday to secure its first ACC win of the season. Syracuse held the Hurricanes' top scorer Haley Cavinder to just seven points in the first half and built a commanding 31-23 lead by halftime. They won the game 66-61.
Haley’s boyfriend, Dallas Cowboys tight end Jake Ferguson, followed the action closely on TV and put up a post when she prepared to take a free throw during the game.

The triumph was especially rewarding for Syracuse after its overtime loss against SMU just days earlier.
The Hurricanes committed 12 turnovers in the first half, which Syracuse converted into 17 points. Haley and Hanna Cavinder both struggled to maintain control of the ball, contributing to Miami’s sloppy play.
Miami added five more turnovers in the second quarter. Haley Cavinder’s four turnovers in the first half reflected Miami’s struggles.
