Charleston Southern at Georgia Tech
ATLANTA (Interstat) — The Georgia Tech women’s basketball team looks to rebound from its first loss of the season when it hosts winless Charleston Southern on Thursday night at Hank McCamish Pavilion.
The Yellow Jackets (1-1) are coming off a 67-61 home defeat to Princeton on Sunday. Catherine Alben led Georgia Tech with 15 points in the loss, while Ines Noguero added 13 points and seven rebounds.
Georgia Tech opened its season with a dominant 82-36 victory over Radford.
Charleston Southern (0-2) is seeking its first win under first-year head coach after dropping two close road games. The Buccaneers fell 86-84 in overtime at Jacksonville on Nov. 3, followed by an 80-65 loss at College of Charleston on Nov. 7.
Guard Asha Sra has been a bright spot for the Buccaneers, scoring 20 points and grabbing seven rebounds in the loss to College of Charleston. Forward Alaina Nettles recorded a double-double in that game with 13 points and 10 rebounds.
This marks the first meeting between the two programs. Georgia Tech will look to capitalize on its home court advantage before hosting Jacksonville on Sunday. Charleston Southern continues a challenging opening stretch, with its next home game not until Nov. 22 against South Carolina State.
Tipoff is scheduled for 7 p.m. EST.
