Miami Hurricanes freshman forward Matt Cross leaves program

CORAL GABLES, Fla. -- Freshman forward Matt Cross has left the Miami Hurricanes' program, the latest personnel loss for a reeling team plagued by injuries.

No reason was given when Miami made the announcement Thursday.

Cross started nine games, ranked fifth on the team in points and fourth in rebounds, and shot 20 for 50 from 3-point range. He didn't play in Wednesday's loss at Florida State, when Miami used six scholarship players.

Cross was ESPN's No. 86-ranked recruit in the 2020 class.

The Hurricanes (6-9, 2-8 Atlantic Coast Conference) play Saturday at Wake Forest.
