Georgia Tech continued its trend of starting hot against Lamar last night. Tech pushed the tempo early and used some fantastic shooting from Freshman Guard Dallan Coleman to achieve a 17 point lead at the half.
The Yellow Jackets struggled to maintain the lead in the second half though. Early in the half the need to maintain the fast tempo seemed to lead to more mistakes on the floor. Costly turnovers and some mediocre free throw shooting did allow Lamar to cut the score to 4 points with 6:05 minutes left in the game.
Thankfully The Jackets were able to use their 3 point shooting to put a capper on the game and walk away with the 75-66 win.
