Georgia Tech returns home to host its second of three-straight in-state rivals on Tuesday night, welcoming Georgia Southern to McCamish Pavilion. The Yellow Jackets and Eagles are meeting for the eighth time on the hardwood with Tech leading the all-time series, 5-2. Tech has taken five straight from GSU after dropping the first two matchups in the 1950s.

Georgia Tech looks to get back to winning ways on Tuesday night, coming off its first loss of the season at Georgia. The Yellow Jackets were led by five in double figures and rallied late in the contest, but could not complete the comeback. Kam Craft paced the way offensively, dropping in a team-high 17 points behind a 5-for-7 effort from three-point range. Craft was followed in double figures by Lamar Washington, Jaeden Mustaf, Kowacie Reeves Jr. and Baye Ndongo.

Georgia Southern enters the matchup on a three-game win streak after dropping its season-opener at East Carolina. A quartet of Eagles are putting up double figures on average during the season, led by Tavarus Webb at 19.5 points per game. GSU is 1-1 on the road, having taken a 95-94 decision at Florida Gulf Coast.

Tuesday’s game will be broadcast live on ACC Network Extra and radio coverage will be available on the Georgia Tech Sports Network by Legends Sports and Tech’s flagship station, 680 the Fan (680AM/93.7 FM). Tech’s radio broadcast will also be available on the SiriusXM app and channel 384.
