KALAMAZOO, Mich. – The Miami University women's basketball team closed the contest on a 6-0 run to secure a 60-55 victory at Western Michigan (7-15, 3-8 MAC) on Tuesday night.

How it Happened:

Amber Tretter opened the contest with a triple and on Miami's next possession, de Vries did the same to spot Miami a quick 6-0 lead. WMU trimmed the deficit to 9-6 at the media timeout, but a triple from Macie Taylor pushed the lead back to six. With the RedHawks up 15-9, de Vries knocked down her second triple and a putback from Tretter gave Miami their largest lead of the quarter, 20-9. The RedHawks led 20-11 after 10 minutes of action.
The RedHawks led 25-15 three minutes into the second quarter before Tamar Singer, Amber Scalia and Taylor connected on three-straight layups, forcing a WMU timeout. The RedHawks battled foul trouble the final six minutes of the quarter and the Broncos trimmed Miami's lead to nine with less than a minute to play. Scalia drove past her defender for a layup for the final basket of the half, spotting Miami a 35-24 advantage.
WMU scored the first five points of the second half to make it a six-point game. Back-to-back buckets from de Vries pushed the lead to double-digits. A triple from WMU cut the deficit to eight, 47-39, but on the ensuing possession Singer converted a three-point play to push Miami's advantage to 50-39. The RedHawks led 50-41 heading to the final quarter.
The Broncos scored the first 10 points of the fourth quarter to claim their first lead of the contest, 51-50, with six minutes to play. Four-straight free throws from de Vries and Scalia reclaimed the lead for the RedHawks, 54-51. The Broncos responded with four-straight of their own to take a 55-54 lead, but de Vries answered with a layup with 90 seconds left on the clock. After a defensive stop, the RedHawks went right back to de Vries for a bucket and Singer knocked down two late free throws to preserve the win.
