Georgia Tech 77, Presbyterian 64
ATLANTA (AP) - Anthony Morrow scored 16 points and freshmen Moe
Miller and Gani Lawal in Georgia Tech's 77-64 victory over
Presbyterian.
The Yellow Jackets (7-6) led by 15 on Morrow's 3-pointer with 17
minutes remaining, but Presbyterian only trailed by two on Josh
Johnson's 3 with 3:33 remaining.
Tech answered with another 3 by Morrow, a steal and dunk by
D'Andre Bell and a basket by Lawal to make it 71-62 with 1:54 left.
The Blue Hose (1-19), playing their first season in Division One
today before debuting next year in the Big South Conference, have
lost 11 straight games, all on the road.
Pierre Miller had 18 points for Presbyterian, which never led
after Al'lonzo Coleman's free throw made it 19-17.
The Blue Hose were playing their third game in five days against
an Atlantic Coast Conference opponent, losing by seven at North
Carolina State and by 12 at Wake Forest.
Coleman finished with 15 points. Johnson and Pat Kiscaden each
had 12.
Tech was coming off a two-point home loss against Florida State,
falling to 0-1 in the ACC. The Jackets, who have won three of four,
visit Georgia on Wednesday.
