Ticket deal: $5 for UM basketball doubleheader
Both the Miami Hurricanes men’s and women’s basketball teams are undefeated at home this season.
With both teams playing Thursday at BankUnited Center, UM is offering a $5 doubleheader ticket to see the men and the women. The men play Pepperdine at 6 p.m., followed by the women, who play Morgan State at 8 p.m. In between, UM will honor former Hurricane great Tamara James. James played for the Hurricanes from 2002 to 2006 and was drafted No. 8 by the WNBA’s Washington Mystics in 2006.
The Hurricane men are a perfect 6-0 at home and the women, who play George Washington at home tonight at 7, have a 10-game home winning streak this season. The women's home winning streak is 14 straight dating back to last season.
