Miami is now 11-18 ( 6-10), while Ohio is 6-21 ( 4-12). OU beat Miami in OT 84-73 in Oxford. We probably need a win at Ohio to stay alive for a spot in Cleveland. In the game that they beat us, sophomore YaYa Felder had 28 points before fouling out, but they still won in OT. Felder leads the MAC in scoring at 21.1ppg,RS SR Caitlyn Kroll had 20 points against us the first time, and leads Ohio in scoring. OU has won only 2 times at home this season, Miami has won only 2 times on the road.
Miami now has 3 of the top 10 scorers in the league, with Wolf 6th, Scott 9th, and Cluse 10th. Cluse is also 4th in the MAC in rebounds and Wolf is first in the MAC in FT%.
Wolf has 13, Scott 6, Cluse and Richason 5. Cluse, Scott, and Wolf all with 2 fouls. For Ohio, freshman Jaya McClure has 12 and Hale has 10. We have done a lot of doubling up on Felder leading to open looks for her teammates.
55-54 Ohio at the end of 3. We had a 12-0 run to take the lead by 1. Once again we stupidly shot a 3 with 9 seconds to go and they got a layup at the buzzer to take the lead.
7:35 to go, TO OU as we take a 62-60 lead. Felder has 23 for OU and a bunch of assists when we have 2 girls on her for open 3’s. Wolf and Scott have been scoring pretty easily as well. Ivy has 18 and Peyton 15, Maddie with 11. Richason with 9 is the only big girl scoring tonight.
