After humbling loss, Pastner pleased with Yellow Jackets' response

FAYETTEVILLE — It makes no sense for Georgia Tech to lose to Gardner-Webb on Monday and then bounce back and take down Arkansas on the road two days later.

But that’s what happen on Wednesday as the Yellow Jackets defeated the Razorbacks 69-65 at Bud Walton Arena.

Georgia Tech (6-4) rallied from a seven-point, second-half deficit to take down Arkansas (7-3) to the delight of its head coach Josh Pastner.

“A great win for us,” Pastner said. “(Arkansas is) a very good basketball team. They’re very well coached. They’ve got a lot of really, really good players.
