Hockey
Last Week: In action for the first time since Nov. 19, the RedHawks (3-8-4) dropped a pair of one-goal decisions at Cornell over the weekend. On Friday night, Carson Meyer made his return felt by scoring less than six minutes in to give MU a 1-0 lead after 20 minutes. Grant Hutton added some breathing room with 5:02 left in the second period, but the Big Red added a goal to cut the lead to 2-1 at the end of the second. CU netted three goals in the third to grab a 4-2 lead, but Karch Bachman pulled the Red and White within one on his first career goal with three minutes remaining, but that was as close as they got in a 4-3 setback (RECAP). Things did not get started well on Saturday as Miami trailed 2-0 after two periods. Meyer added his second goal of the weekend three minutes into the third as Miami fired 11 of its 25 shots on goal in the final regulation period, but could not erase the deficit in a 2-1 defeat (RECAP). This Week: Miami resumes NCHC play when it hosts Colorado College at Steve 'Coach' Cady Arena as part of Give Back at Goggin. Friday night's game will involve a Teddy Bear Toss and begin at 7:35 p.m.

Last week: The Miami University women's basketball team played just one game this past week, a Saturday afternoon contest against Indiana State in Millett Hall. The RedHawks took a 37-32 lead into the half, but a cold spell offensively in the third quarter was too much to overcome as they fell to the Sycamores, 62-54. MU pulled to within in three in the waning minutes but ISU sealed the game at the free throw line (RECAP). This Week: The Red & White remain at home for another week to play host to IUPUI on Wednesday at 7 p.m. and Northwood on Saturday at 1 p.m. Wednesday's contest is the team's Ugly Sweater game, where fans are encouraged their best (or worst) ugly sweater.
