No. 24 Miami (Ohio) Rallies Past UMass to Stay Perfect
Miami (Ohio) tied the Mid-American Conference record with a 21-0 start, fueled by Eian Elmer's 30 points and clutch plays in a close 86-84 win over UMass.
- Tuesday night, the Miami RedHawks improved to 21-0 with an 86-84 victory over the Massachusetts Minutemen in Oxford, Ohio.

- The win tied Miami with the 2001-02 Kent State squad for the MAC's longest in-season run, and Miami remains one of two unbeaten Division I teams, joining top-ranked Arizona after Nebraska's loss.
