Coral Gables, FL (hurricanesports.com) – The University of Miami men’s basketball game against North Carolina on January 4th at 7 p.m. is officially sold out.
The game, which will be nationally televised on ESPN, will be the inaugural event in the new 7,000-seat $48 million Convocation Center, the new on-campus home of Hurricane basketball.
Miami’s last sellout came on January 20, 1999 when the Hurricanes faced No. 1 ranked Connecticut at the Miami Arena.
Gates open at 6 p.m., one hour prior to tip-off, and fans are encouraged to wear orange. Head football coach Larry Coker and members of the Hurricanes’ football team will be honored at halftime.
