Softball: Ohio travels to Miami for three-game series

Ohio (8-16, 2-3 Mid-American Conference) will ring in its April schedule when it travels to Oxford for a three-game series against Miami (14-10, 5-0 MAC).

It won’t be an easy series. Miami has won its last 10 games and has a perfect record in conference play. But Ohio has defeated teams on long winning streaks before. It ended Marshall’s 11-game winning streak after winning its home opener two weeks ago.

Here’s what to know about the RedHawks ahead of the Bobcats’ road trip to Oxford:
