It’s the season opener everyone’s talking about! The Cavinder twins, Hanna and Haley, made their highly anticipated return to the court this Sunday after a year’s break—and boy, did they deliver. Miami Hurricanes fans had been craving this reunion, and the twins brought the heat, leaving Palm Beach Atlantic in the dust with a whopping 89-30 win. Talk about making a statement!
The Cavinder Superfans: QB Moms Get In on the Action
Now, it’s not just the Hurricanes faithful filling the stands to cheer these sisters on. Enter Tracy Beck, mom to Georgia Bulldogs quarterback Carson Beck and a devoted supporter of Hanna Cavinder (yes, she’s the girlfriend of Tracy’s star son, Carson). Tracy couldn’t hold back her excitement, taking to Instagram to share a post of the twins in the starting lineup with the caption: “Dynamic Duo.” Maybe it’s something about being a sports mom that brings out the loudest cheers, but Tracy has made it clear—she’s all in on the Cavinder twins’ big comeback.
The Dynamic Game-Plan
Tracy had every reason to be proud. Haley Cavinder racked up 13 points and 10 rebounds while Hanna added 12 points to the total. After all, the twins played a crucial part in Miami’s 2023 run to their first-ever Elite Eight appearance. With a new season and a fresh start under head coach Tricia Cullop, hopes are high that the twins can spark another legendary run.
Cullop is clearly a fan, too. Gushing to reporters, she said, “They’re two of the hardest workers I’ve ever coached. Heck, they might be the hardest-working people I’ve ever played with, and I’ve been alongside some serious All-Americans.” When a coach says her star players “run through walls” for her, you know they’ve got that extra something.
Back in Action: Hanna’s Take on Being Back at The U
For Hanna Cavinder, returning to Miami was like slipping back into her favorite sneakers. “It honestly felt really refreshing right when I got back on campus,” she said, with a nostalgic glint in her eye. After deciding to retire her sneakers last season, Hanna admits it was Haley who gave her that extra nudge to return. And now that she’s back, it’s full steam ahead.
Excited about Miami’s 2024-25 roster, Hanna shared: “Like Coach Cullop said, there’s so much versatility—so many people that can play different positions on the court, so I’m excited for that.” Not to mention, this roster is no joke. With powerhouse post players and guards ready to make moves, the Hurricanes could be looking at a season with serious potential.
Fans Get in on the Action: TikTok and Reactions Galore
In true Cavinder fashion, Hanna and her QB beau Carson Beck have taken to TikTok to chronicle their adventures. Carson, fresh off a Bulldogs win, spent his bye week enjoying Miami, where the couple’s latest TikTok collaboration sent fans into a frenzy. One user cheekily commented, “This what my QB doing on bye week,” while another chimed in, “Beck out here proving he’s MVP on and off the field.”
With the twins’ return, Miami fans are pumped for the upcoming season. Expect more fierce plays, some high-energy TikToks, and maybe even a few more supportive posts from Georgia QB moms. The Hurricanes’ first regular-season game kicks off against the Stetson Hatters on Nov. 4. Hold onto your seats, fans—this season’s about to get stormy with the Cavinder twins back on court!
