The 23rd-ranked Miami University RedHawks defeated the Ohio Bobcats 90-74 on Friday night to remain the lone unbeaten team in Division I. Brant Byers scored 21 points and Peter Suder had 20 points and 6 rebounds for the RedHawks, who tied the single-season school record for victories set last season. Jackson Paveletzke led Ohio with 22 points.
Why it matters
The RedHawks' undefeated start to the season has them ranked 23rd nationally and on pace to potentially earn a high seed in the NCAA Tournament. This win over a conference rival keeps their perfect record intact and maintains their position atop the Mid-American Conference standings.
The details
The RedHawks led 43-35 at halftime and then opened the second half on a 7-2 run, including 5 points from Byers, to pull away. Miami shot 9-of-18 from 3-point range and 21-of-28 from the free throw line, while Ohio struggled from beyond the arc, making just 5-of-21 3-pointers. The RedHawks also dominated the boards, outrebounding the Bobcats 38-29.
- The game was played on Friday, February 13, 2026.
- Miami tied a school record for single-game home attendance with a sellout crowd of 10,640 at Millett Hall, the same as their January 31st game against Northern Illinois.
