Miami can’t complete comeback against Eastern Michigan

The Miami men’s basketball team dropped its third straight game after a comeback attempt fell one point short in Tuesday’s 58-57 loss to Eastern Michigan.

The RedHawks (13-13, 6-7 MAC) opened the game with a promising 5-0 run before their offensive attack went cold, allowing the Eagles (15-11, 6-7 MAC) to rattle off 10 unanswered points of their own.

Senior forward Rod Mills scored back-to-back buckets to make it 10-9, but Miami’s offensive struggles returned. The ‘Hawks went over 11 minutes without scoring a field goal, surrendering an 18-2 stretch in the process.
