Van Dyke, a sophomore, was 11/16 for 81 yards and a touchdown pass prior to the injury. He was replaced in the game by backup quarterback Jake Garcia.
Van Dyke has had an up-and-down season for the Hurricanes. Though he has played in all six games this season, he has been benched in favor of Garcia at times.
