UCLA Dominates Presbyterian in Home Blowout
LOS ANGELES – The No. 19 UCLA Bruins showcased their offensive firepower Friday night, crushing Presbyterian 86-46 at home and improving to 5-0 on their home court. Skyy Clark led the charge with a season-high 22 points, while Donovan Dent contributed 14 points and five assists.
The Bruins (5-1) shot a blistering 62.7% from the field, the best mark under coach Mick Cronin in seven seasons. Brandon Williams chipped in with 11 points and seven rebounds, stepping up in the absence of leading scorer Tyler Bilodeau, who is sidelined with a knee sprain.
After a shakeup in the starting lineup against Sacramento State, Cronin returned to a more familiar lineup, excluding Bilodeau, with Williams making his second start of the season. The Bruins dominated on the boards (33-25) and capitalized on Presbyterian’s 17 turnovers, 12 of which came in the second half.
Presbyterian (2-4) struggled, shooting just 33.3% from the field. Jonah Pierce led the Blue Hose with 13 points, followed by Triston Wilson with nine. Their California road trip concluded with a third loss, after defeats to Sacramento State and Cal.
UCLA jumped out to an early lead and never looked back, carrying a 41-22 advantage into halftime, fueled by Clark’s 14 first-half points.
The Bruins look to continue their winning ways on Tuesday against Cal in San Francisco, while Presbyterian returns home to host Columbia International on Wednesday.
