OXFORD, Ohio – Enjulina Gonzalez scored 23 points and Maya Chandler added 17 as the RedHawks blew past Ohio University 72-34 on Saturday afternoon inside Millett Hall.

How it Happened:

The Bobcats responded with five-straight points, but Chandler answered with five of her own to maintain the 14-point advantage with four minutes left in the half. Ohio ended the drought with a triple, but buckets from Chandler and Tretter to close the quarter, sent Miami to the locker room up 30-14.
