Miami (Ohio) remains the lone unbeaten team in Division I men's college basketball after surviving a scare against Western Michigan. Head coach Travis Steele was assessed a technical foul after an emotional outburst where he sent a speaker flying before halftime, with the RedHawks trailing at the break for the sixth time this season.
The RedHawks (29-0, 16-0 MAC) showed resilience, overcoming a nine-point deficit with 6:38 remaining to secure the 69-67 victory in Kalamazoo, Michigan and preserve their perfect record.
