SEARCY, Ark. – A strong second half from Harding proved too much for SWOSU Men's Basketball to handle, as the Bulldogs fell 78-61 for a fourth straight road loss.

Saturday's momentum shift occurred within the final minutes of the first half. SWOSU found themselves up 31-30 with just over a minute remaining before the Bisons closed the half on a quick 6-0 run capped off by a layup to beat the first-half buzzer.

The Bulldogs would never regain their lead as Harding achieved a 25-10 extended run over the first 10 minutes of the second half to take control of the game. SWOSU couldn't string together possessions to try and fight their way back into the game, never scoring more than four points without a Harding answer in the final 20 minutes.

SWOSU shot 22-50 (44%) in the game while going 7-17 (41.2%) from deep but went just 1-7 from the three-point line in the final half. Harding finished 27-58 (46.6%) from the field and 10-31 (32.3%) from deep.

The Dawgs committed 15 turnovers that translated into 22 points off turnovers for the home team. Harding committed only eight turnovers, resulting in just nine points for the Bulldogs.

Tobias Roland led the offensive production for the Dawgs with 18 points on 7-10 shooting and 2-2 from the three-point line. Elijah Williams added 13 points while going 7-8 from the free throw line.

SWOSU (8-10, 5-8 GAC) will now return to Weatherford for their next four games, starting with Ouachita Baptist on Thursday, Feb. 6 at 5:30 pm, before Henderson State comes into town on Saturday (Feb. 8) to round out the week. With eight games remaining in the regular season, SWOSU now sits in ninth place in the GAC standings, one spot outside of postseason contention.
