What the Miami RedHawks (1-2) needed was a win to get some confidence for their young players, but the Delaware Blue Hens (3-1) denied them that opportunity as the Hens handed the RedHawks a 68-66 loss in Oxford. Michael Weathers had a tremendous night despite the result with 24 points, seven rebounds, and six assists, while Delaware had four players in double figures on the night.
Miami got off to a horrid start in the first half as the team shot 37% from the floor in the first half, while also having eight turnovers and nine personal fouls as it went to the locker room with a 35-29 deficit.
