With 11:12 left in the first half, Panthers standout Mouhamadou Gueye left due to an injured right wrist sustained when he crashed to the deck. He had eight points in eight minutes, including two 3-pointers and a spectacular rebound/dunk.

Gueye, who had scored 27 points in his previous game, returned in the second half and finished with 11 points.

With 12:54 left in the second half, Miami's Anthony Walker took a left elbow from Hugley. The blow drew blood on Walker's mouth, but no foul was called. Walker received medical attention but returned and finished with seven points, six rebounds and two steals as Miami's sixth man.

In the first half, Miami made six of its first eight shots -- including two 3-pointers - and grabbed a 14-2 lead.

Pitt answered with a 10-0 run, but Miami came right back and led 47-27 at halftime, including a shot by Moore that fell at the buzzer.

Moore had 14 points and McGusty had 13 as Miami shot a blistering 59.4 percent in the first half.

In the second half, Miami extended its lead to 57-31 on Moore's 3-pointer. At that time, Miami had a 22-0 advantage on points off turnovers.

Pitt finally scored off a turnover on Miami's next possession, but the Panthers never seriously challenged the Hurricanes in the final 20 minutes.

Miami forced 20 Pitt turnovers, turning them into 30 points. The Hurricanes shot 55.2 percent, including 9-for-20 on 3-point attempts.
