DAVIDSON – Reed Bailey, the league's leading scorer, finished with a game-high 24 points to lead Davidson past Richmond, 71-60, in Atlantic 10 men's basketball action Saturday afternoon inside John M. Belk Arena.
The Wildcats, who held the Spiders to just 39.3 percent and one trey in the second half, improve to 14-9 overall and 4-6 in conference play.
In addition to his 12th 20-point effort of 2024-25, Bailey finished 12-of-14 at the line, grabbed eight rebounds and handed out five assists. He was joined in double figures by Mike Loughnane, who had a career-high 15 points, while Bobby Durkin added 12.
Tied 41-41, the two teams proceeded to swap leads eight times before the 'Cats started to separate with six straight points capped by a Connor Kochera layup.
A Loughnane triple from the top of the key with 51 seconds remaining gave Davidson a nine-point advantage and put the game out of reach.
In all, the contest featured five ties and 12 lead changes before Davidson went in front for good on a Bailey layup at the 8:57 mark.
The Wildcats committed a season-low four turnovers and held a commanding 35-25 margin on the glass.
Richmond (8-16, 3-8 A-10), which canned 7-of-12 3-pointers in the opening 20 minutes, used a 10-2 run late in the period to retake the lead before going to the half up, 36-32.
Mikkel Tyne and Dusan Nekovic were the lone Spiders in double figures with 13 and 12, respectively.
