Miami (Ohio) capped an undefeated regular season with a dramatic 110-108 overtime victory over Ohio, finishing 31-0 and becoming just the third Division I team to enter a conference tournament with a perfect record. Eian Elmer led the RedHawks with a career-high 32 points and 12 rebounds in the win.

Peter Suder scored five of his 13 points in overtime, while Trey Perry added 21 and Brant Byers contributed 15. The victory secured Miami's first Mid-American Conference title since topping Akron. Despite their perfect record, the RedHawks might need to win the conference tournament to guarantee an NCAA tournament berth.

Jackson Paveletzke led Ohio with a career-high 37 points, while Javan Simmons scored 30 and Aidan Hadaway added 20 for the Bobcats, who lost three straight to end the season. Miami's previous dozen games included four one-possession wins and two overtime contests, showing the team's resilience throughout the campaign.
