Yellow Jackets Sting The Noles



In what has become too common an occurence for FSU basketball, the Noles lost to Georgia Tech at home 63-57. This was one of those must have wins and the Noles did not get the job done. A scoring drought of nearly 10 minutes in the second half proved too long to overcome for the Florida State men’s basketball team. This was the third straight loss for the Noles.

Freshman point guard Javaris Crittenton scored 11 consecutive points in a 13-0 run for Georgia Tech, which snapped its 17-game road losing streak. Crittenton had 29 points on 10-of-17 shooting and outdid FSU’s Isaiah Swann, who sank four 3-pointers and finished with 23 points.

After suffering a 68-67 loss to Boston College on Sunday, FSU (17-9, 5-7 ACC) took another hit in the chase for its first NCAA tournament bid since 1998.
