As time wound down on Saturday night, a win for Miami Hockey seemed impossible but the fans would not let The Brotherhood finish their season on a bad note. The crowd did not care that the RedHawks could not win their final series. A "thank you seniors" chant echoed throughout the Steve 'Coach' Cady Arena as the eldest members of the team played their final minutes as Miamians.
The men's hockey team took on No. 2 University of Minnesota Duluth in Duluth, Minn. for a two-game series. The RedHawks lost the series opener on Thursday. They tied second game on Friday and will pick up an extra point in the National Collegiate Hockey Conference standings for scoring in overtime.
Miami men's hockey was swept at home by the University of Denver Pioneers this weekend. The losses are their third and fourth in a row.
Miami men's hockey was swept by the St. Cloud State Huskies on the road this weekend. The RedHawks lost both games, 4-2 on Friday and 3-1 on Saturday, at the Herb Brooks National Hockey Center.
The RedHawks currently have 14 players in their freshman class, and only six upperclassmen. With such a young team, inexperience is expected, but the future of Miami Hockey is bright.
