BURLINGTON, Vt. – The Miami University men's basketball team fell short in a comeback attempt at Vermont Wednesday night 75-67. Peter Suder scored a team-high 21 points for the RedHawks (6-4), while Kam Craft totaled 15 and Antwone Woolfolk added 12. Nick Fiorillo led the Catamounts (6-7) with 21 points.
 
 How it Happened:

• Suder began the game by getting fouled from beyond the arc, sending him to the free-throw line, where he made all three attempts. Craft knocked down a pair of shots to even the score at nine apiece. The Catamounts responded by taking a double-digit lead at 22-11 with 9:41 to go in the first half.
• The RedHawks closed back within six points at 26-20 after Woolfolk put in a hook shot. Eian Elmer sank a triple from the corner to trail 31-25 with just over three minutes remaining before the intermission. Evan Ipsaro made a floater to head into halftime trailing 40-28.
• The RedHawks opened the second half of play by scoring the first four points to cut the deficit to 40-32. The Catamounts answered with nine points to extend their lead to 49-32. Down 55-37 with over 12 minutes of action left, the Red and White went on a 17-4 run to shrink Vermont's lead to just five points at 59-54.
• Suder stole an inbound pass and turned it into a layup to keep Miami in striking distance at 62-58. Woolfolk stole the ball near the top of Vermont's three-point line and maneuvered his way down the court for a step-through layup to make it a one-possession game (66-64) with 1:34 to play. The Red and White came no closer, falling 75-67.
