The University of Miami women’s basketball team dropped their sixth consecutive contest Sunday afternoon, falling on the road to Florida State (15-4, 5-2) by a final score of 88-66.

The Hurricanes (11-7, 1-6) were solid on the offensive end of the court; however, they allowed FSU to shoot 47.5 percent from the field, including 50.0 percent from behind the arc and the Seminoles buried a program record 18 3-pointers.

Jasmyne Roberts led the way for the Canes, as she scored 16 points, while also pulling down five rebounds and recording two assists.

Haley Cavinder poured in 15 points, and she also grabbed six rebounds and dished out a team-high five assists.

Cameron Williams was the third Miami player to reach double figures in scoring, as she chipped in 10 points on 4-6 shooting from the field.

Darrione Rogers added eight points, Lemyah Hylton scored seven points, and Aurora Almon scored four points and corralled a team-high seven rebounds.

Miami shot 41.0 percent from the field, 42.9 percent from behind the arc, and 66.7 percent at the free throw line throughout the contest.

The Canes fell behind 8-0 in the first 2:11 of the game; but, they quickly elevated their intensity and significantly increased their level of play after the tough start. Miami responded to the 8-0 FSU run to start the game with a 10-0 run of their own, as they took a 10-8 advantage after a Haley Cavinder 3-pointer at the 4:57 mark in the first quarter.

Miami extended their lead up to four points with 2:28 on the clock in the first period after Hylton finished a difficult layup through contact. The Canes ended the first stanza with a 22-18 lead over FSU after shooting 41.2 percent from the field and 75.0 percent from behind the arc in the quarter.

The Seminoles began to heat up on both ends of the court in the second quarter, as they scored 24 points on 43.8 percent shooting, while holding Miami to just 10 points on 26.7 percent shooting in the quarter. The Canes entered halftime trailing 42-32.

Florida State knocked down 8-14 shots, including 6-10 3-pointers in the third quarter to push their advantage up to 15 points entering the final frame.

Miami was outscored 24-17 over the final 10 minutes of play, as they went on to fall to FSU.

The Canes will return to the court on Thursday when they are slated to travel to face Clemson with tip-off scheduled for 7 p.m.

Embarrassing.
 
Something isn't going right with the athletic dept..
ridiculous
 
The soft OOC schedule got many of us to believe lies, this team is exactly what it is: Mediocre. Considering that Cullop inherited a completely barren roster(Meier's roster was gutted the moment she announced her retirement), and had to hold it together with the portal and some freshmen, it is what it is. Considering how she's recruited up to this point, this may be the least talented roster she works with during her tenure. That said, it's frustrating as ****, because this team should have 1-3 more wins, but the lack of physicality and lack of consistency from the bigs tends to bite this team at the worst possible moments. You can't be undersized AND this careless with the basketball.

I’m willing to give Cullop some time. She’s a good coach.

That being said it’s all about results. We’re paying her a good amount of money for that very reason
