Miami out to maintain top-four ACC spot vs. Boston College

Amid a remarkable turnaround, Miami will be out to solidify its NCAA Tournament credentials when it plays host to Boston College in an Atlantic Coast Conference game Saturday.

What seemed unlikely before the season began is within reach for the Hurricanes under first-year head coach Jai Lucas. A completely new roster has given Miami (22-6, 11-4 ACC) legitimate NCAA Tournament hopes.

After going 7-24 last season, and 3-17 in ACC play, the Hurricanes are currently in third place in the ACC behind No.
