The Bobcats hold a slim, 95-89 lead over Miami-Ohio in the all-time series, but earlier this year the RedHawks chipped into that deficit with a 79-67 victory over Ohio.

Kenny Hayes is the only player netting double figures on the season, as the guard is averaging 14.3 ppg, to go along with 3.1 apg. Julian Mavunga is second on the team with 9.6 ppg, but the forward is also pacing the squad with 6.6 rpg. The last time the RedHawks were on the floor the team scored 69 points in a win over Southeast Missouri State.

Mavunga and Orlando Williams tallied 11 points apiece, while Hayes finished with 10 points.

The Bobcats only scored 64 points in their last contest, but that was good enough for them to slip past Wright State for the victory. Ohio shot a mediocre 43.8 percent from the floor and finished 17-of-21 from the foul line. Armon Bassett led the way with 26 points, while DeVaughn Washington added 16 points and seven rebounds.
