2016 MIAMI REDHAWKS SCHEDULE & RESULTS

Description
STARTING STRONG
Miami notches their first MAC win of 2015 against Central Michigan

The Miami RedHawks have recorded their first MAC win of the 2015 season with a 38-35 defeat over Central Michigan this afternoon in Oxford. The win comes as Miami’s first over the Chippewa’s in over three years; their last meeting ended in a 34-27 loss.

This one was an absolute shootout for both teams as they combined for 1101 total offense yards, 1126 in total. A key third-down conversion catch by Rokeem Williams and a late field goal attempt Kaleb Patterson sealed the victory for Miami who now moves on with their second straight win after taking a 39-33 victory last week against Western Kentucky.

“They came out extremely aggressive with their pass attack, we had to respond or else we would’ve been out of it before it even started,” offensive coordinator James Houston stated.

Austin Gearing continued up on his impressive season with another career topping game, last week he threw for 356 yards, this week it was 367 and four touchdowns.

“His success is coming from pure hard work,” head coach Chuck Martin stated. “The fact that he went from seriously considering changing positons to d-end to now nearly leading the nation in passing yards is truly amazing.”

Gearing’s 10 touchdowns ranks in the nation’s top 20 while his 1501 passing yards through just five games comes in at #3 amongst all quarterbacks.

“It’s a dream come true,” he says. “I’ve been waiting for my time to come here for quite a while and now that it’s here even I can’t believe it’s going this good. Like I said, it’s a dream come true.”

Gearing’s first touchdown was a 23 yarder to Sam Martin to the first quarter. That was then followed up by a two yard dump pass to Spencer McInnis before he ended the half with a wild nine yard throw to his tight end Mark Lewis to tie the game at 21-21. His final touchdown pass was perhaps the best thanks to McInnis who took the screen straight to the end zone for 68 yards on the play.

McInnis, who replaced the injured Spencer Treadwell, was named player of the game with 221 all-purpose yards and three touchdowns. The junior halfback recorded 121 yards on the ground and 100 in the air in his first start of the season.

Senior tight end Orlando Davis also filled in a missing void of an injured teammate, Ryan Smith who’ll return next week, Davis tied McInnis in receptions with eight and 74 yards which ended up just ahead of Jared Murphy who hauled in seven passes for 78 yards.

With 10 tackles and a forced fumble, MLB Joe Donlan was the top player for the RedHawk’s defense who struggled to stop Central Michigan’s spread offense. Cornerback Heath Harding continued up on good play with eight tackles while fellow corner Marshall Taylor added his first pick of the season in the second quarter along with four tackles.

For the Chippewa’s, they heavily relied on the arm of Cooper Rush who threw a career high total of 470 yards on Miami. Along with the yardage, he distributed four touchdowns with just one interception – stats identical to our own Austin Gearing.

The quarterback got great production out of his receivers which was led by Corey Willis who tallied seven receptions for 143 yards and three of Rush’s four touchdowns. Joey Kroll added another 107 yards on his six grabs. Along with their superior passing effort, the Chippewa’s saw their halfback Saylor Lavallii rush for 103 yards and a touchdown on 27 carries.

“This Miami team seems to be headed in a much better direction,” CMU head coach John Bonamego said. “I applaud them for this victory, they’re doing a great job over there.”

Miami will attempt to push their conference record to 2-0 next week when they head out to (1-4) UMass in a contest scheduled to kickoff at 3:30 with regional broadcast coverage.
