UMES men’s basketball team defended their perfect record at William P. Hytche Athletic Center, knocking off Regent University 89-41 on Thursday evening.
UMES has now won 11 of their last 12 contests including seven straight. The victory also pushed the team to 9-0 on their home floor this year.
Plenty of Hawks were involved in the win. Kevon Voyles, Chace Davis and Zion Styles were the top three scorers, pouring in 16, 15 and 13 respectively while all shooting 6-of-9 from the floor.
Davis and Styles each added three steals on the night as well.
It was a big night for the freshmen. Toby Nnadozie recorded his first career double-digit scoring effort, contributing 12 points in 15 minutes on the floor (both career-highs). Dionte Johnson posted a team-high six assists and also had three steals, while Victory Naboya added four boards and two steals.
Nathaniel Pollard Jr. shared the team-lead in rebounding, hauling in six while adding eight points. Troy Hupstead also cleaned the glass six times with three assists and four points.
UMES shot a shade under 50 percent from the floor and tallied 20 assists in the win. They also totaled 18 steals and forced 38 turnovers.
“That was a total team effort,” Hawks coach Jason Crafton said. “Now it’s time to get healthy and prepare for the second half of league play.”
