Inside the Hurricanes' week: Miami loses Toney, then gets handed its first loss of the season SOUTH BEND, Ind. (AP) — Miami tries to do everything the same way, every week, no matter the opponent. Sometimes things go according to plan. Sometimes they do not. This week was one of those do-not weeks. The Hurricanes fell from the ranks of the unbeaten with a 31-24 loss at Notre Dame, a game they played without star receiver Malachi Toney. He got hurt in practice Wednesday and Miami played without its top offensive weapon. It was a huge blow for a team with championship expectations, and now the Hurricanes have almost no more margin for error if they're going to make the College Football Playoff. In Senegal, Black surfers want to reclaim the waves despite lack of resources DAKAR, Senegal (AP) — The origins of surfing can be traced back to the native populations of Peru, Polynesia and Hawaii, and European travelers documented children surfing along the coast of what is now Ghana as early as the 17th century. But today’s surfing, especially professional surfing, is a predominantly white sport. In West Africa, it is a sport for the fortunate few who can afford expensive equipment and training. The dream of surfer Ibra Samb of Senegal is to change that, he says. Together with other local surfers he holds free weekly classes for kids from his native Ngor village, hoping that one day one of them qualifies for the professional circuit. 3 games, 2 days, 1 program.

Athletic director Leo Balayon, inspired by Miami Heat coach Erik Spoelstra, emphasizes the unique opportunities and community spirit at the school. Despite frequent losses, players like Treveon Lee appreciate the chance to compete and grow, valuing faith and second chances over fame.
