The Miami University men’s basketball team made a valiant comeback effort in the second half Tuesday night against Wright State University, but ultimately lost 89-87.
The RedHawks erased a 21-point deficit in the second half and even maintained a short two-point lead with the help of double-digit point totals from redshirt sophomore guard Jake Wright, freshman guard Michael Weathers and junior forward Rod Mills.
MU falls to an even 1-1 on the season while Wright State earns its second win to improve to 2-0.
“We didn’t come out and do what we do best,” junior guard Abdoulaye Harouna said.
