The loss to Akron was quickly overshadowed by Miami’s recent win against Kent State Saturday afternoon. The Golden Flashes, who sit fourth overall in the Mid-American Conference (MAC), are seeded significantly higher than Miami. Regardless, the RedHawks kept their composure. A three-point buzzer-beater by sophomore guard Peyton Scott secured the 61-58 win on Senior Day. Scott’s buzzer-beater was No. 5 on SportsCenter’s Top 10 Plays the next morning.

The UB Women’s Basketball team took a lead into the last minute at Kent State, but despite four possessions in the last minute, they could not score again, and a Kent State basket and two free throws gave the Golden Flashes a 65–62 victory. The game was crucial in the MAC standings as whichever team won would occupy 4th place; so the Bulls remain 5th place in the MAC now with a 9–6 conference record.
In a game that saw 11 lead changes, and in which no team ever had a double-digit lead, two free throws by Buffalo sophomore guard Dyaisha Fair gave the Bulls a 62–61 lead with 1:21 left. The Bulls played very strong defense on the ensuing Kent State possession, but Kent State guard Moriah Modkins hit a running 10 foot shot with 1 second left on the shot clock to put the Golden Flashes ahead.
