Following a superb first half, the Roadrunner men's basketball team could not sustain their momentum against a solid Union County squad.

Guard Nick Sambour led four players in double figures with 14 points, but it wasn't enough as the visiting Owls rallied for an 80-77 triumph to snap the Runners' two-game win streak.

Also scoring in twin figures for RCSJ were Quantavious Rogers (13 points), Khayri Ransom (12) and Ryan Skeie (10).

It appeared that Coach Will Logan's Roadrunners (3-4 overall) were well on their way to a third straight win before Union (4-3) turned on the defensive pressure in the second half.
