Baseball Beginning play in 1915, and Mid-American Conference (MAC) play in 1948, Miami has made the NCAA Division I Baseball Championship 7 times. The team has won 4 MAC conference championships, 3 MAC East Division titles (divisional play in the MAC was held from 1998 to 2017), and 3
MAC Tournament titles (the tournament began in 1981). The team plays its home games at
McKie Field at Hayden Park in
Oxford, Ohio.
Field hockey The Miami field hockey team has won nine
MAC tournament championships, most recently in 2024.
Football at
Yager Stadium The Miami University RedHawks
football team is one with a rich tradition of history. The school boasts the longest continuous college football rivalry west of the Allegheny Mountains against the
Cincinnati Bearcats, and has one of the oldest football programs in the country, dating to the year 1888.
Golf The men's golf team has won 14
Mid-American Conference championships: 1948, 1950, 1970, 1974, 1981, 1987, 1988, 1989, 1990, 1991, 1992 (co-champions), 1996, 2015, and 2026. RedHawks who have had success at the professional level include:
Bob Lohr (one
PGA Tour win) and
Brad Adamonis (one
Nationwide Tour win).
Ice hockey at
Goggin Ice Center The RedHawks on ice played in the
Central Collegiate Hockey Association ("CCHA") before the original conference disbanded in 2013, and fielded one of the best teams in the league in its last years. In 2006, the RedHawks earned the first #1 national ranking in school history and were CCHA regular season champs. They made it to the championship game, but lost to Michigan State. The RedHawks have played in the
National Collegiate Hockey Conference since that league began play in 2013–14. Instead of playing in the
Mid-American Conference ("MAC"), the mid-major conference most Miami varsity sports play in, the RedHawks competed against the larger schools of the CCHA such as the
Michigan Wolverines and the
Michigan State Spartans, who normally compete in the
Big Ten. In 2006 Miami University replaced the old Goggin Ice Arena from 1976 with the new $34.8-million state-of-the-art
Goggin Ice Center, with a capacity of around 4,000. Both buildings are named for former University vice-president Lloyd Goggin. In 2008 the RedHawks set team records for winning percentage and wins with .797 and 33 respectively. That year the RedHawks captured their first #1 seed in school history and advanced to the quarterfinals in the NCAA tournament, losing to
Boston College. The team was led that year by All-Americans
Ryan Jones and
Alec Martinez. The 2009 RedHawks became the first Miami team to reach the
Frozen Four in the history of the program. The team made it to the championship game and carried a 3–1 lead into the final minute before giving up 2 goals 6 on 5 with the opposition net empty, and ultimately lost in overtime on an unlucky deflection, 4–3 to college hockey powerhouse
Boston University.
Synchronized skating Miami's
synchronized skating team began in August 1977 as a "Precision Skating Club" at Goggin Ice Center. The program achieved varsity status by 1996, Miami won a silver medal at the 2007
International Skating Union World Synchronized Skating Championships. This is the highest finish for any US skating team and the first medal ever won by
Team USA for synchronized skating. Miami created a junior-varsity level team beneath the senior level. After serving as the coach of Miami's program for 25 years, Vicki Korn announced her retirement in May 2009. (
Note: Synchronized skating is sanctioned by
U.S. Figure Skating, not by the NCAA. Most synchronized skating teams are clubs not affiliated with any college or university; Miami is one of about 15 schools that sponsor varsity or club teams.)
Tennis Dave Abelson played tennis for the school, and later represented Canada in the
Pan American Games and the
Maccabiah Games. ==Club sports==
