ATLANTA (AP) - Freshman Mfon Udofia scored a career-high 26
points and Georgia Tech beat Siena 74-61 on Wednesday night.
Derrick Favors, who is also a freshman, finished with 16 points
and eight rebounds for the Yellow Jackets (5-1), winners of four
straight. Gani Lawal added 15 points and nine rebounds.
Clarence Jackson led Siena (4-3) with 19 points. The Saints, who
have dropped two of three, never led and had no other players score
in double figures.
Udofia, a point guard from nearby Miller Grove High School in
Stone Mountain, also had seven rebounds. His 10-foot runner with
4:06 remaining gave Georgia Tech a 68-54 lead.
Favors, a 6-foot-10 forward from nearby South Atlanta High, hit
a layup to put the Yellow Jackets up 54-47 with 8:44 left in the
game.
