ByNBAUSA


Number 23 The Miami (OH) Redhawks made program history after coming off a solid win over the Ohio Bobcats on Friday night.

The Redhawks are a program that hasn’t seen the NCAA Tournament since 2007. Their best campaigns came when they reached the Sweet 16 in 1958, 1969, 1978 and 1999.

Every year since then, the Redhawks have tried to get back to that level. Fortunately for them, they have the opportunity to return to the Big Dance for the first time this decade, as they got off to a great start this season.

They looked to keep that record perfect after beating Ohio. That enabled them to tie their program record in history and remain the last undefeated team in all of men’s college basketball.

“Miami (OH) ties its program record to remain the last undefeated team in men’s college basketball,” the release said.
