Greensboro, NC (Sports Network) - Shane Larkin scored 20 points and Kenny
Kadji chipped in 15 with 11 rebounds, as ninth-ranked Miami-Florida fought off
a stiff challenge from Boston College and claimed a 69-58 victory in the ACC
Tournament quarterfinals.
Trey McKinney Jones added 12 points for the Hurricanes (25-6), who closed the
contest with a 14-3 run. Miami captured the top seed in the tournament for the
first time after winning the regular-season crown outright and will next play
the winner between Virginia and North Carolina State in Saturday's semifinals.
Patrick Heckmann led Boston College (16-17) with 15 points, while Ryan
Anderson and Oliver Hanlan each finished with 14. Hanlan made just 2-of-3 from
3-point range after blistering the nets with eight threes and 41 points in
Thursday's 84-64 first-round win over Georgia Tech.
