Morgan Named to Cancun Challenge All-Tournament Team

THE FLATS – Georgia Tech sophomore guard Tonie Morgan was named to the Cancun Challenge All-Tournament Team. Morgan averaged a double-double in the Thanksgiving tournament in Mexico last week.

Helping the Yellow Jackets go 1-1 in the tournament, Morgan averaged 12.5 points and 10.5 rebounds per game in the two-game stretch. She led the Jackets on the glass in the tournament, while finishing second offensively.

Against Creighton, Morgan pitched in 12 points and nine rebounds, while dishing out three assists, two blocks and a steal. She followed that performance with her first double-double of the season, coming against New Mexico. Morgan tallied 13 points and a game-high 12 rebounds for her fifth career double-double, helping lift Georgia Tech to a 66-55 victory against the Lobos.

On the season, Morgan is second on the team in scoring and rebounding, contributing 15.7 points and 7.1 rebounds per game. She leads the Jackets in assists with 35 on the season.

Georgia Tech returns to action on Saturday at Nebraska. Tip is slated for 3 p.m. EST in Pinnacle Bank Arena.
