Miami Hurricanes, Cavinder Twins Bow Out of NCAA Women’s Tournament in Elite 8 Loss to LSU Tigers
The Miami Hurricanes and their TikTok-famous Cavinder twins faced heartache in the NCAA Women’s Tournament on Sunday night, as they were defeated by the LSU Tigers 54-42 in the Elite 8 round of March Madness. Despite their impressive victories over higher-ranked teams like Villanova, Indiana, and Oklahoma State in the earlier rounds, the Final Four proved to be a step too far for the ninth-seeded Miami team.
The Hurricanes and the Cavinder twins have become the talk of the Women’s NCAA Tournament, with their impressive Cinderella run and social media presence. Haley Cavinder, who led Miami in points throughout the tournament, managed just two points and three rebounds in the game, while her sister Hanna did not play at all.
However, the 22-year-old twins’ social media fame has certainly helped their careers off the court, with several NIL deals and an estimated net worth of $850,000 each. In fact, they are currently the two highest-paid female college basketball players and the 32nd and 33rd overall in college sports.
As for the NCAA Women’s Tournament, LSU will move on to face either South Carolina or Maryland in the Final Four, while the other game will feature Virginia Tech/Ohio State and Louisville/Iowa. Meanwhile, the Cavinder twins will turn their attention back to social media, with the release of their March Madness vlog scheduled for Monday on thier official youtube channel.
Overall, the Cavinder twins and the Miami Hurricanes have captured the attention of fans across the country with their impressive run in the Women’s NCAA Tournament, showcasing the exciting talent and potential of college women’s basketball.
