Miami’s Haddix said he learned much from Bramos
By Pete Conrad
Rodney Haddix II figures to see some serious playing time this season as a 6-foot-3 junior guard for Miami University’s basketball team, especially after connecting on 8-of-8 shots from the 3-point stripe during the exhibition season.
Michael Bramos, Miami’s Mid-American Conference Player of the Year, was a big influence, Haddix said.
“Playing behind Michael Bramos, you learn a lot of things which make the game a lot easier,” Haddix pointed out. “He was a very good leader. He looked after me when I was down. He gave me some good points and tips. And also just watching him, I learned to let the game come to me.”
Haddix saw only 50 minutes of playing time as a freshman, saw that number jump to 168 last season and started both of Miami’s exhibition games earlier this month. He scored 20 points against California (Pa.) on Nov. 1.

Miami goalie picks up national award
Miami sophomore goaltender Cody Reichard was named national player of the week earlier today by Inside College Hockey.
Reichard, who was named CCHA Goaltender of the Week on Monday, made 47 of 49 stops in a weekend series sweep at then-No. 4 Michigan this past weekend.
Top-ranked Miami scored 3-1 and 5-1 wins, its first-ever sweep in Ann Arbor and the first time the Wolverines have been swept at home since Oct. 26-27, 2001 — a span of 45 series.
Reichard and the RedHawks (8-1-1) host Ferris State Friday (7:35 p.m.) and Saturday (7:05 p.m.) at Steve Cady Arena.
