GEORGE TOWN, Cayman Islands (Interstat) — In a game defined by contrasting styles and a dramatic finish, the Miami Hurricanes outlasted the George Washington Revolutionaries 83-77 in overtime Friday in a women’s NCAA Division I basketball matchup at the WBB Cayman Islands Classic.

The game, played on Nov. 28, 2025, saw Miami improve to 5-1 on the season, while George Washington fell to 2-5.

Miami’s victory was anchored by a dominant interior performance from Ra Shaya Kyle and a high-volume scoring effort from Gal Raviv, overcoming a spectacular shooting display from George Washington’s Gabby Reynolds. The contest required an extra period after the teams finished regulation knotted at 72.

The Hurricanes won despite a stark disparity in three-point shooting. George Washington shot a blistering 8 for 15 from beyond the arc, while Miami managed just 2 of 15. The Revolutionaries also held a significant advantage in overall field goal percentage, shooting 30 of 64 compared to Miami’s 27 of 63.

Miami compensated for its shooting woes with relentless aggression, earning 40 free throw attempts and converting 27. George Washington attempted just 14 free throws, making nine. The Hurricanes also dominated the glass with 14 offensive rebounds, leading to 18 second-chance points, and forced 18 George Washington turnovers while committing 14 of their own.

Kyle, a 6-foot-6 center from Marion, Indiana, was the focal point of Miami’s attack. She played 37 minutes and recorded a double-double with 26 points and 14 rebounds, consistently drawing fouls and capitalizing at the free-throw line. Her presence in the paint was a constant challenge for the Revolutionaries’ defense.

Raviv, a guard from Netanya, Israel, logged a game-high 40 minutes and led all scorers with 29 points, adding four rebounds. Her backcourt partner, Ahnay Adams, contributed six points, six rebounds and two assists in 29 minutes. Forward Soma Okolo provided a crucial defensive presence with three blocks and seven rebounds to go with her 10 points.

For George Washington, Reynolds, a 5-foot-9 guard from Holland, Michigan, was brilliant in defeat. She scored 27 points on efficient shooting, dished out four assists and recorded two blocks in 39 minutes. Her backcourt mate, Mia James, provided a spark off the bench with 12 points and four assists in just 15 minutes.

Forward Caia Loving nearly posted a double-double with nine points and nine rebounds, while Emma Theodorsson added 14 points. Tanah Becker, despite scoring only two points, was a defensive force with six rebounds and two blocks in 40 minutes.

The game was a back-and-forth affair throughout. George Washington’s three-point shooting kept them in contention, but Miami’s ability to attack the basket and control the offensive glass proved decisive, especially in the overtime period where the Hurricanes outscored the Revolutionaries 11-5.

According to Interstat’s ELO system, Miami was projected with a 93.90 percent probability to win.

Miami continues play in the Cayman Islands Classic against Oklahoma State on Saturday. George Washington will face Charlotte in its next tournament game, also on Saturday.
