At 2-4-1, Miami sits one spot ahead of Virginia in the conference. A win for the Hoos would leapfrog them over the Hurricanes in the ACC standings.
🔼 Wahoo Catch-Up. Craig Littlepage retired as director of athletics in December 2017, but he hasn’t been idle since then.
He recently sat down with the Wahoo Central Podcast for a wide-ranging conversation!
