ON TAP: The RedHawk women's basketball team looks to keep it's unbeaten record at home intact when it hosts Central Michigan today inside Millett Hall. It is "One Miami" weekend for Miami athletics. "One Miami" is an initiative started by Miami University President Greg Crawford, which aims to show appreciation for the school's faculty and staff by providing them and their families free admission and parking to several different athletic events this weekend. The action kicked off with hockey taking on Denver last night inside Steve "Coach" Cady Arena. Women's basketball begins today's slate with their competition against the Chippewas, and is followed by the men's basketball team battling Western Michigan at 3:30 p.m. before hockey's nightcap against Denver at 7:05 p.m. closes the festivities. One ticket will get you into BOTH basketball games. For even more information on "One Miami" weekend click HERE.
CARNIVAL ON THE CONCOURSE/PACERS DUNK TEAM: Beginning when doors open at 12 p.m. and running through 12:50 p.m. (prior to tip off for the women's game) and open again in between the women's and men's games there will be a Carnival on the Concourse for our younger fans. This includes several inflatable games, a bounce house, life-sized Twister game, 9-hole putt-putt course, giant Checkers and Connect Four, as well as a coloring station. There also will be a photo booth located on the Millett Hall concourse for all of our fans to commemorate their day, which will be available through the start of the second game. At halftime, the Indiana Pacers dunk team returns to put on another exciting performance. Be sure to arrive early enough so that none of the day's fun is missed.
POSTGAME AUTOGRAPH SESSION: Both the Miami men's and women's basketball teams will hold an autograph session following the men's game on Saturday. Get autographs and take pictures with your favorite RedHawks! Autograph cards will be available for fans to have signed.
