BOWLING GREEN, Ohio - The Miami University collegiate synchronized skating team won its first competition of the 2002-03 season this past weekend with a perfect score at the Falcon Challenge Cup. The RedHawks defeated the likes of Michigan, Western Michigan and Northern Michigan at the team competition.

In the synchronized-only competition the RedHawks scored first-place ordinals across the board to take first, while in the combined section they also took first with 108 points.

The senior team, and collegiate, synchronized skating teams skate next when they travel to Ann Arbor, Mich. for the Dr. Richard Porter Classic on Dec. 6-7.
