Nevada's Bluejays outran the Stephens Roadrunners 57-53, Thursday, Nov. 7.

The Jays controlled the game throughout the first half, leading 15-13 at the end of one and held a slim 29-28 halftime advantage. The Roadrunners were able to take the lead, 46-45, in the third period, but were outclassed in the final stanza.

Ricardo Young dominated scoring with 24 points, including a trio of three-pointers. Eric Murphy followed with 10 for the Jays.

Stephens was led by Robert Turner with 13.

The Roadrunners had a tough night at the charity stripe, connecting on one of five attempts. The Jays, though, shot well, sending 12 of 19 through the nylon.
