Miami WBB coach praised Haley and Hanna Cavinder's tough athletic mindset

Before deciding to return to the Hurricanes, Haley had transferred to the TCU Horned Frogs in November 2023. However, Hanna announced in April that she would opt for the fifth and final year of her eligibility and play for the Miami Hurricanes.

This led to Haley also transferring to Miami and gearing up to play for Tricia Cullop, the new Miami coach. Cullop was happy that she was getting two hardworking guards on her team.

“It was a no-brainer," Cullop said (per Miami Herald). "They’re two of the hardest workers I’ve ever coached or played with, and that’s saying a lot, because I played with some All-Americans.

“They have an extreme hunger to want to be better, and they set the bar really high for the rest of the players. It’s great for my incoming freshman class, which was ranked 18th in the country, to see two kids who have a lot of press being such hard workers. When your best players are your hardest workers, you have something special.”
