Jackson, who led the conference in scoring this season with a 21.9 average, is making her second straight appearance on the first unit. She has broken several MU school records this season, including the all-time scoring record, single-season scoring record and single-game scoring record.

Also for the RedHawks, junior guard Jenna Schone was a second-team selection, and senior forward Laura Markwood was named to the third unit.

Last-inning rally sinks RedHawks 6-5

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. — The Miami University baseball team fell to 1-5 on Saturday, March 8, as host Samford scored four times in the bottom of the ninth inning to record a 6-5 victory.

In the bottom of the ninth, a walk and a hit-by-pitch preceded a fly out, and the Bulldogs (4-5) had runners on the corners with one out. A strikeout left Samford with runners on the corners and two outs, but the next four Bulldog batters reached base (including three singles), which brought in four runs.

Tommy Nurre, Chris Nadeau and Blake Chaffee each plated a run for the RedHawks. Jon Edgington collected two hits. The two teams will square off again today in a doubleheader.
