Cheer on the Canes

The extraordinary resilience of our Miami Hurricanes football team against Duke University this last weekend is a resounding affirmation of the value of intercollegiate athletics in bringing together a community.

In the face of great adversity, our student athletes played their hearts out in a display of spirited competition and dedicated teamwork. The University of Miami family stands proudly behind these young men and celebrates their hard-earned win.
