HUNTSVILLE, Ala. – Bluefield University men's basketball dropped a nonconference matchup Saturday afternoon, falling 107–72 to Alabama-Huntsville at Spragins Hall. The Rams fought through an early back-and-forth stretch before UAH's perimeter shooting and depth created separation midway through the first half.
BU opened with an early jumper from DJ McDonald and a three-pointer from Danny Alford to take a 5–2 lead, and buckets from Elijah White kept the Rams within striking distance at 12–6. A pair of White mid-range jumpers and a transition finish at the 10:34 mark stabilized the offense, but UAH responded with a 22–4 run fueled by five three-pointers to push the margin to double digits. Bluefield trailed 59–35 at halftime.
The Rams continued generating quality looks after the break, as White scored seven quick points—including a deep three at 15:55—to help cut the deficit briefly. DeAndre Miles knocked down a pair of threes, and Chase Ragin-Moore added a driving score and a transition three to highlight an improved offensive rhythm. However, UAH's 58.8 percent shooting night and 15 made threes proved too much to overcome.
White led BU with 19 points on 9-of-17 shooting while adding five rebounds. Alford followed with 13 points, four rebounds, and a three-pointer, while McDonald posted six points and a team-high seven rebounds. Miles produced 10 points off the bench, including two threes, and Ragin-Moore added nine points on perfect 4-for-4 shooting. Tyler Suber finished with five points and three assists, and Jeremiah White contributed four rebounds, three steals, and a late free throw.
As a team, Bluefield shot 37 percent from the floor, collected 15 second-chance points, and recorded 18 points off turnovers. The Rams also received 31 points from their bench.
BU (1–5) returns to action Sunday for a neutral-site matchup against Christian Brothers with tipoff set for 4:00 p.m.
