Four Riverhawks scored 18 or more points as UCC men's basketball dismantled Southwestern Oregon 79-63 on the road Thursday night, improving to 20-3 overall in a dominant conference performance.

Jackson Taylor led the balanced attack with 19 points on efficient 6-of-11 shooting, including a sizzling 5-of-8 from three-point range. Three teammates joined him in double figures: Mikey Lloyd (18 points, 3 steals), Jackson McKee (18 points, 3 rebounds), and Caden Hunter (18 points on 7-of-11 shooting).

The Riverhawks controlled the game from start to finish, taking a 39-14 halftime lead and cruising through the second half with a 40-49 scoring advantage. UCC's balanced scoring attack proved too much for Southwestern Oregon, which got 14 points from Quinton Christman and 12 from MJ Tia.

UCC will look to build on this momentum as they continue their push through conference play, with their 20-3 record positioning them well for postseason consideration.
