Bluefield, VA - The Bluefield University men's basketball team finished their season on a high note, securing an 86-81 victory over St. Andrews on Senior Night at The Dome. The win gave the Rams a final record of 6-19, closing out the year with a strong performance.

Before tip-off, the Rams honored their five graduating seniors: Quantavis McKinney, Justin Wiggins, Donavon Martin, Jaron Washington-Thomas, and Justin Johnson. The senior class made their presence felt throughout the night, delivering key contributions to help lift Bluefield to victory.

McKinney led the team with 24 points and 10 rebounds, dominating inside and at the free-throw line. Martin controlled the paint with 12 points, nine rebounds, and two blocks, while Johnson added 11 rebounds and provided key defensive plays. Wiggins and Washington-Thomas also contributed on both ends of the floor, helping to maintain the lead late in the game.

The game was tightly contested, with St. Andrews pushing back after Bluefield took an early lead. The Rams held a 36-37 deficit at halftime but surged in the second half, outscoring their opponents 50-44 to close out the game. Bluefield's aggressive defense and rebounding played a crucial role, limiting second-chance opportunities for St. Andrews while converting on their own end.

With the season complete, Bluefield will look to build on this momentum heading into the offseason. For the departing seniors, it was a night to remember, closing their careers with a well-earned victory on their home court.
