YPSILANTI, Mich. (Interstat) — The nation’s last remaining undefeated team puts its perfect record on the line Tuesday night when the No. 1-ranked Miami (Ohio) RedHawks visit the Eastern Michigan Eagles in a Mid-American Conference men’s basketball matchup. Miami (27-0, 14-0 MAC) arrives at the Convocation Center having dominated conference play, winning its last five games by an average of 13.2 points. The RedHawks are coming off a 91-77 home victory over Bowling Green on Friday, where Eian Elmer scored 21 points and Luke Skaljac added a team-high 24. Elmer, a dynamic guard, has been a consistent force, averaging over 15 points per game in February. He erupted for 30 points in a Jan. 27 win over Massachusetts, showcasing his ability to carry the offensive load for a deep and balanced Miami squad. Eastern Michigan (10-17, 4-10) looks to play spoiler and build on a 66-54 home win over Central Michigan last Tuesday. The Eagles have struggled since, including a 94-75 loss at Toledo on Saturday. Their hopes rest heavily on forward Mohammad Habhab, who nearly posted a triple-double in that defeat with 21 points, nine rebounds and seven assists. Habhab has been a bright spot, averaging a double-double in his last five contests. The matchup presents a stark contrast in trajectories. The RedHawks, eyeing a historic perfect regular season, boast the MAC’s top offense. The Eagles, sitting near the bottom of the conference standings, have lost eight of their last eleven but have shown resilience at home, winning three of their last five in Ypsilanti. History will be on Miami’s side, but Eastern Michigan’s Habhab provides a formidable challenge inside. The Eagles will need a near-perfect defensive effort to slow the nation’s most efficient offense and pull off a season-defining upset. Tip-off is scheduled for 7 p.m. EST Tuesday at the Convocation Center.
