Short-handed goal puts Miami on top
By Pete Conrad
Freshman defenseman Joe Hartman scored a short-handed goal with 1:18 left in the first period and the top-ranked Miami RedHawks lead No. 14/15 Notre Dame 1-0 after one period tonight, Dec. 4 at Steve Cady Arena.
Tommy Wingels assisted Hartman’s fourth goal of the season.
The period ended with eight Miami and Notre Dame players in close contact along the boards, and it wasn’t for a group hug.
After consulting for a couple minutes, the officials slapped Wingels with a 5-minute major penalty and a game misconduct for hitting from behind. Miami’s Curtis McKenzie and Notre Dame’s Kyle Lawson each received 2-minute minors for roughing after the whistle. It all happened at the 20:00 mark.

RedHawks must keep heads up, Hayes says
By Pete Conrad
The Miami basketball team’s 2-5 record is the slowest start through seven games for the RedHawks since the 2001-02 season, when Miami also started 2-5 and finished the season 13-18.
It isn’t the kind of start the RedHawks imagined for themselves. Not with the return of senior point guard and preseason All-MAC first teamer Kenny Hayes, not with the athletic abilities of Antonio Ballard and Nick Winbush and Rodney Haddix II, not with senior Adam Fletcher coming off a solid season at center.
The main worry now is a free fall. Miami would like to start the Mid-American Conference season somewhere close to .500, and that won’t be easy. Of the RedHawks’ next six non-league games before the MAC opener on Jan. 9, four are away from home.
And none of those games looks like a sure thing. Temple, Cincinnati, Wright State, Milwaukee, Xavier and Colorado. The schedule isn’t getting much easier.
“We’ve got to continue to get better,” Hayes said. “We can’t keep our heads down.
“These next couple of days at practice are important for us,” he stressed. “The best thing we can do is keep our heads up and stay focused.”

Boise State not coming to Oxford next year
By Pete Conrad
Boise State’s football team will not play the Miami RedHawks at Yager Stadium next season, Miami spokesman Mike Pearson says.
Miami’s pending non-conference schedule for 2010 has the RedHawks playing Sept. 4 at Florida, Sept. 18 at home against Colorado State, Sept. 25 at Missouri and Oct. 9 at Cincinnati.
Earlier this year Miami in its Football Fan Guide printed a list of some, but not all, of the program’s non-conference schedules for the next three years. The 2010 schedule listed Boise State at Miami on Oct. 2 and had Miami playing at UC on Sept. 11.
Miami’s games listed in the Fan Guide for 2011 are Western Kentucky (away), Cincinnati (home) and Minnesota (away). The games listed for 2012 are Ohio State (away) and Cincinnati (home).
