On a cool and rainy Sunday in Boston, the Hurricanes made their way to Fenway Park to take on Boston College in the ALS Awareness Game. After two wins on the Eagles’ home turf, Miami looked for its second straight sweep. Thanks to some help from the famous Pesky Pole, the Hurricanes were able to pull away victorious, 3-2. Down 2-0 in the top of the eighth with runners on first and second, sophomore slugger Daniel Cuvet stepped up to the plate.

It’s the start of a new era for the University of Miami men’s basketball program. The winningest coach in program history, Jim Larrañaga, stepped down in the middle of his 14th season, only two seasons after the first Final Four in program history. “There’s one thing you’ve got to constantly ask yourself: Are you going to give everything you have — the commitment it deserves, 100% of yourself physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually?” Larrañaga said to reporters.

Coming off an impressive sweep of Georgia Tech and winning seven straight, Miami looked to make it eight in a row against FIU. Despite tying the game at four apiece in the ninth inning, FIU dramatically walked off Miami in the 10th inning. Down 4-3 in the bottom of the ninth, freshman catcher Evan Tavaras led off the inning. On a 2-1 pitch, he hit a no-doubter over the left field wall for his third home run of the year to tie the game late.

On Easter Sunday, the Hurricanes came to play. Miami was electric on both sides of the ball in a 10-2 win that capped off the series sweep. It’s safe to say Georgia Tech won’t be the No. 13 team in the country for long — Miami stung the Yellow Jackets from start to finish. Miami’s new look weekend rotation has been rolling the past few weekends, and it continued on a sunny Sunday afternoon.

On paper, there is no doubt that April has been a better month for the ’Canes than March. Despite the eighth inning drama, the Hurricanes continued their winning ways by defeating FAU at Mark Light Field by a score of 5-4. The starting pitcher for the Hurricanes, Reese Lumpkin, had another great performance after his strong six-inning showing last week against Bethune-Cookman.
