McClinton, Miami set to face feisty San Diego

Nov 24, 2008 - 5:59 PM San Diego (2-2) at (21) Miami FL (2-1) 6:00 pm EST

ST. THOMAS, Virgin Islands (Ticker) -- Jack McClinton and No. 21 Miami will try to bounce back from their first loss of the season on Monday against San Diego in the consolation game of the Paradise Jam.

McClinton scored a season-high 27 points and Dwayne Collins added 16 and 14 rebounds, but the Hurricanes were overmatched in a 76-63 loss to No. 2 Connecticut on Sunday in the semifinals.

Miami, which received its first preseason ranking in nine years, opened the season with consecutive wins by an average of 23 points. However, the Hurricanes shot a season-low 35 percent from the floor in the loss to UConn.

Miami may be able to get back on track against the Toreros. The Hurricanes (2-1) have won four straight and 16 of their last 17 games against unranked, non-conference opponents.

San Diego shot just 34.5 percent from the floor in a 64-49 loss to Wisconsin on Sunday. The Toreros, who upset Connecticut in the first-round of the NCAA Tournament last season, had won three of their last four games against ranked opponents.

This is the first meeting between the teams.
