The Hurricanes’ stars took a shot at the Hoosiers after reaching the Sweet 16.
Miami pulled off a stunning upset of No. 1 seed Indiana on Monday night during the women’s NCAA tournament and the team was fired up after the win.
Following the 70–68 shocker, Hurricanes’ twin guards, Haley and Hanna Cavinder, took to Instagram to have some fun at the expense of the Hoosiers.
Miami punched its ticket to the Sweet 16, and the Cavinder twins celebrated on social media, asking their fans on the caption of the Instagram post, “Hoosier fav twins?”
The pair are both extremely popular on Instagram, boasting more than 500,000 followers each. They used that platform for some friendly banter after eliminating Indiana from the field on Monday night.
Miami took a late lead over the Hoosiers in the fourth quarter of Monday’s game and forced a turnover on the final possession to seal their victory.
Haley started for the Canes and played 36 minutes in the win, registering nine points, eight rebounds, and one assist. Hanna came off the bench and logged 19 minutes, providing three points, three rebounds, and two assists.
Miami, who entered the tournament as a No. 9 seed, will face No. 3 seed Villanova in the Sweet 16 on Friday afternoon, in what will be another difficult test for the Hurricanes.
If they pull off another upset win, it wouldn’t be a major surprise if the Cavinder twins continue chirping on social media.
