SCSU Holds Off Miami in Series Finale – Miami University RedHawks
HOW IT HAPPENED
- 13:05 1st (SCSU 1-0) | The Huskies grabbed the game’s first goal seconds after a 4-on-3 Miami power play expired. Cooper Wylie deflected the puck to Tyson Gross, who lofted a long pass ahead that found Grant Ahcan streaking out of the penalty box for a 4-on-4 breakaway.
- 0:51 2nd (SCSU 2-0) | SCSU added to its lead in the closing moments of a 5-on-3 power play. A diagonal passing sequence from Austin Burnevik to Adam Ingram set up Barrett Hall for the open finish.
- 6:50 2nd (SCSU 3-0) | St. Cloud State struck again on the power play later in the second period, as Max Smolinski skated in and found Gross on the doorstep to make it 3-0. Josh Zinger had the second assist on the play.
- 10:13 2nd (Miami 3-1) | The RedHawks responded with a special-teams goal of their own near the game’s midway point. After Kocha Delic set up Deputy’s shot attempt on a 5-on-3 power play, Deputy quickly retrieved his own rebound and fed a pass to Giampa near the goal for a shot to make it 3-1.
- 15:06 2nd (Miami 3-2) | Miami continued a strong push in the second period with a Deputy goal to trim the margin to one. Owen Lalonde held the puck in at the point and sent a perfect pass across to Deputy on the far side of the zone to help the RedHawks pull within 3-2.
- 19:03 3rd (SCSU 4-2) | The visitors sealed the outcome with an empty-netter in the final minute, as Verner Miettinen poked the puck ahead for Ahcan. Although Ahcan’s first shot attempt was blocked, he stuck with the play and came up with the game’s final goal.

New details are emerging in the death of a woman whose body was found on Hollywood Beach the day after Christmas.
Police say 56‑year‑old Heather Asendorf was discovered by a passerby. People who frequent the beach say she was a familiar sight at the bandshell near Margaritaville, where she danced most nights in brightly lit shoes.
Harrison, a frequent visitor who did not want to give his last name, said he saw her nearly every day.
“She was very friendly, polite. She loved to dance,” he said.
Suspect arrested four days later
Four days after she was found, Hollywood police arrested 28‑year‑old Brandon McCray and charged him with sexual battery, kidnapping, and battery by strangulation.
McCray was taken into custody at a Hollywood motel off Federal Highway. His permanent address is listed in Coconut Creek, where no one answered the door when approached for comment about his arrest.
Police are still working to determine how Asendorf’s path crossed with McCray’s.
Tributes pour in from friends
Tributes for Asendorf are pouring in, especially from the annual State College Townie Reunion community in central Pennsylvania, where she had deep roots.
Among the messages shared:
-
“A beautiful friend forever in our hearts.”
-
“Unforgettable. A sweet soul.”
-
“I still can’t wrap my mind around this one. She was so amazing.”
-
“One of our shining stars has left the stage.”
Investigation remains active
Hollywood police say their investigation is ongoing, and McCray could face additional charges as detectives continue to piece together what happened.
Should the CFP committee rethink the playoff schedule format?
Extended breaks and logistical challenges have reopened questions about whether the College Football Playoff committee should adjust the playoff schedule format.
Mississippi football’s Nick Cull avoided an ejection during the College Football Playoff Fiesta Bowl semifinal on Thursday, Jan. 8.
As Malachi Toney reeled in a catch from Carson Beck at the Miami 49 in the first quarter, he was hit by Cull in a helmet-to-helmet collision. Right away, the officials flagged Cull for targeting, with both Toney and Cull staying down on the field with an injury.
After officials reviewed the play, the call on the field was overturned, as the officials determined that Cull did not launch and the collision seemed to be incidental. Replay assistant Matt Austin concurred with the call on the field.
The play had a major impact on the game as well. If the call had been upheld, Miami would have had the ball at the Ole Miss 34-yard line with a chance to expand its 3-0 lead. However, a few plays later, the Hurricanes were forced to punt from the 49-yard line.
On the first play of the second quarter, Ole Miss running back Kewan Lacey scored on a 73-yard run to give the Rebels a 7-3 lead.
Because he was not called for targeting, Cull was not ejected from the game, which means Ole Miss will have him for the remainder of the game, if he can clear the concussion protocol. He was in the tent following the play.
Cull has 15 total tackles and three pass deflections this season for the Rebels.
Meanwhile, Toney went to the medical tent briefly for the Hurricanes, but returned to the game.
A crash involving an unmarked Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office vehicle was reported in Northwest Miami-Dade on Thursday morning, and the morning commute was impacted as a result.
Few details have been released, but the crash was reported in the area of Northwest 79th street and Interstate 95.
Video from the scene showed that the vehicles had heavy damage.
The sheriff’s office said the crash also involved a civilian vehicle, and no injuries were reported.
No other information was released.
