RedHawks Slow Down Governors in 59-52 Victory

OXFORD, Ohio – Miami scored the game's final six points in a 59-52 victory over Austin Peay State University on Sunday afternoon. Maya Chandler was one of four RedHawks to scored in double figures as Miami improves to 3-1 on the season. Austin Peay drops to 1-3.

How it Happened:
  • Three different RedHawks scored in the first four minutes of the contest and a turnaround jumper from Chandler gave Miami an 8-7 advantage midway through the opening quarter. Enjulina Gonzalez hit back-to-back three pointers and Chandler hit a pair from the foul line to extend the lead, 16-7. APSU banked in a three late in the quarter for a 16-10 Miami lead after 10 minutes of play.
  • Miami extended their lead, 25-17, with help from two three-pointers from Tretter five minutes into the second. The Governors responded with a 12-7 run before Gonzalez drove between multiple defenders for a layup with six seconds left in the quarter. Miami led 34-29 at the half.
  • The RedHawks stormed out of the locker room. Chandler opened the scoring with a triple and moments later Núria Jurjo snuck past the defense for a layup. Chandler then knocked in another triple and Jurjo found Singer for an easy bucket for a 44-30 Miami advantage less than three minutes into the quarter. APSU finished the third on a 9-4 run, cutting Miami's lead, 48-39 entering the final stanza.
  • Austin Peay's run continued into the fourth. The Governors used a 9-2 un in the first five minutes of the quarter to cut the lead, 50-48. Katey Richason and Singer free throws stretched the advantage, 53-49 with 1:49. APSU cut the lead to one, 53-52 with one minute to play. Singer then knocked in a pair from the free throw line and after Miami forced an errant three pointer, Singer connected on two more free throws to ice the win.
