CLEVELAND — Cheers of, “Miami still sucks,” rang out from the Ohio Bobcats pep band at the Quicken Loans Arena on Friday afternoon.
While a team that finishes 13-6 in the Mid-American Conference and 23-8 overall is hardly bad, today wasn’t the RedHawks’ day.
They were downed by No. 2 Ohio 74-48 in the MAC Tournament semifinals, eliminating them from the competition.
“Tremendous job by Ohio today,” MU head coach Megan Duffy said. “Their defense was almost stifling, at times, for us. A lot of the things we were trying to get better at, from the first two games against them, we weren’t able to execute.
