(RV) Miami Returns Home to Tangle With No. 19 Tigers

(RV) Miami plays its final home games of the 2025 calendar year when No. 19 Colorado College comes to town for an NCHC series. The RedHawks are 10-6-0, 2-6-0 NCHC after dropping two games at then-No. 6 Denver (4-0 and 5-2 scores). Miami played its first games as a nationally-ranked team last weekend (No. 19) since Jan. 12, 2019. The Tigers come in at 8-7-1, 2-5-1 NCHC and haven’t played since a split with then-No. 16 Providence in late November (3-2 win, 2-1 loss).

This week’s games at Steve “Coach” Cady Arena are set for Friday, Dec. 12 at 7:05 p.m. and Saturday, Dec. 13 at 6:05 p.m. The contests will be broadcast live on NCHC.tv and will also air on Rock Entertainment Sports Network (live Friday, with Saturday’s game tape-delayed). Greg Waddell (play-by-play), Drew Davis (analyst), and David Ventura (rinkside reporter) will have the call, with audio coverage streaming on MiamiRedHawks.com.

Matteo Giampa (9-7-16) leads the RedHawks in points and goals, and Vladislav Lukashevich (2-12-14) tops Miami in assists. Matteo Drobac has played every minute in net and is 10-6-0 between the pipes (3.13 GAA, .900 save %).

Defenseman Owen Lalonde and head coach Anthony Noreen met with the media this week to preview the games against the Tigers.
