DETROIT (AP) Kikembe Dixson scored 23 points and Tarkus Ferguson added 15 points and 11 rebounds to lead UIC over Detroit Mercy 78-69 on Sunday.

Josh McFolley had career highs of 30 points and six steals for the Titans (7-18, 3-9). Roschon Prince added 18 points and Kameron Chatman had 13 points and 10 rebounds.

UIC led 43-37 at halftime and built a 13-point second-half lead.
