Miami of Ohio remains unbeaten in Division I with a 26-0 record after defeating UMass 86-77, led by Peter Suder’s 23 points and Luke Skaljac’s 16 points and seven assists.

  • On Tuesday, Miami won its 26th straight game, defeating UMass 86-77 in Amherst, Mass., led by Peter Suder's 23 points.
  • Trailing by eight with 14 minutes left, UMass scored seven straight and a 5-0 run to lead 62-60, then Placide banked a 3 to tie 68-68, leaving defender Eian Elmer stunned.
  • UMass received 18 points and nine rebounds from Leonardo Bettiol, while Isaiah Placide and Danny Carbuccia scored 19 and 15, respectively.
  • The coach said, `Steele himself didn't seem to be focused on the streak, saying in his postgame that he didn't know who the next opponent was or when they played-- it's Bowling Green, on Friday. He also needed to be reminded how many games they had won. You only live life once`,` and emphasized the team's focus on the upcoming game.
  • The crowd of 7,524 highlighted the atmosphere in Amherst as Miami prepares for hostile road games at Eastern Michigan, Western Michigan and Ohio, with coach Travis Steele noting teams must create their own energy in loud or empty venues.
