The University of Miami men’s basketball team (5-17, 1-10 ACC) rallied from down 11 at halftime to defeat the Notre Dame Fighting Irish (10-11, 4-6 ACC), 63-57, Saturday night at the Watsco Center.

Miami scored 15 of the final 19 points and held Notre Dame scoreless in the final three minutes to earn its first ACC win of the season.

Senior Matthew Cleveland tallied his fifth straight 20-point game with a team-leading 21 points, while graduate student Lynn Kidd and senior Brandon Johnson joined Cleveland in double-figures with 15 and 13 points, respectively.

The Hurricanes took an early 6-2 after connecting on three of their first shots from the field, but Notre Dame responded with a 13-2 run of its own to go up 12, 25-13, with 6:59 to play in the first half.

Miami cut the deficit to five, 30-25, thanks to an 11-point first half from Cleveland, however, Notre Dame connected on six 3-pointers in the first half to take a 36-25 lead into halftime.

Kidd gave the Hurricanes some life in the second half, scoring six of Miami’s first 12 points in the frame and sparking a 13-3 run that Notre Dame’s lead to two, 48-46, with 10:45 to play.

Cleveland put the Hurricanes back on top, 55-53, on a fadeaway jumper at the 6:10 mark in the second half. Notre Dame tied the game at 57 with four minutes to go, but Miami’s defense rose to the occasion and kept the Fighting Irish scoreless to secure the victory.

Miami heads north to Louisville, Ky., on Saturday, Feb. 8 to take on the No. 21/22 Louisville Cardinals. Tipoff at KFC Yum! Center is set for 2 p.m. and the game will air on ESPN2.

The Miami Hurricanes won their first conference game of the season, ending a ten-game losing streak. They defeated Notre Dame 63-57 at the Watsco Center. After the game in the postgame Bill Courtney had some wise words to say to Matthew Cleveland.

“It's hard for me to take him and Brandon Johnson out the game because they do so many things for our team, and you know, I think he was out for like two minutes, but they went on a scoring run, and so we got him back in there quickly. He's playing the best basketball of his career, he's doing exactly what we ask him, and most importantly, he's showing great leadership he's helping the young guys, and he's really starting to grow into that role. Said Courtney. "He has only played in Miami for a year and a half, and so it's hard to immediately be the person that's, you know, kind of guiding people and telling them what to do, so he had to grow into that role, and you know when coach retired I kind of sat down with him and challenged him to do that he's a quiet person by nature but he's very intelligent and so I you know I challenge Matt to be a leader to help these young guys help all these new guys you know what we want so you got to encourage them to do the right thing"

Matthew Cleveland finished the game 21 points on 9-of-15 from shooting yesterday. Cleveland also contributed on the boards as he grabbed seven rebounds and punched in two assists to the stat book.

Cleveland has scored over 20 points in nine of their last eleven games.

It wasn't a perfect game for Cleveland as he was 1/3 from behind the arc but when we need to go get a bucket or when we need to get to the rim I don't think there is a better choice out there on this team than Cleveland.

In the last four games, Cleveland has averaged 26.4 points per game. Although he started the season slowly, he began to get into his rhythm offensively after Nijel went down with an injury following the Tennessee game.

What does this have to do with Jim?

Happy for this team. Really looked like they completely quit on the season after getting ran off the court by SMU and Stanford. They’ve responded well since.

It’s always great to be a Hurricanes when you take down your rival. Check out the photos from the locker room after the win over Notre Dame yesterday afternoon:

Happy they got a W, happy they won't set the record for the most consecutive losses in ACC play, but still waiting for the season to be over. Watching this team has been frustrating. It's by far the worst basketball team I've ever seen, and I grew up watching the Dallas Mavericks in the nineties...

It's always a good thing to beat Notre Scum no matter what sport, **** them in one ear and out the other
