The RedHawks also face traditional local rivals Cincinnati, Xavier, Wright State and Dayton with a noted addition — Miami travels to Columbus to face Ohio State on Wednesday, April 6.

"We are very excited about the challenges of the 2011 schedule," Simonds said. "This schedule gives our players a great opportunity to compete against some of the premier programs in the country. We will certainly be tested early with two quality tournaments in the Carolinas."
