Miami soccer team opens MAC schedule with split
Miami University's soccer team tied in its first MAC match of the season. The team is 4-2-3 overall this year following a game on Sept. 26.
The Miami University soccer team returned home after a pair of road games, opening Mid American Conference play with a match against Northern Illinois University (5-1-2) on Sept. 19. Both teams came into the match with just one loss so far this season.
Both squads would remain with just one loss, as the two teams played to a 1-1 draw. At that point, Miami had posted five straight matches without a loss and a 4-1-3 record.
After a scoreless first half, the Huskies scored the first goal of the game in the opening minute of the second stanza. The 1-0 lead held up until the 75-minute mark when the Redhawks’ Jamie Hlebec scored on a rebound from a free kick.
