CINCINNATI (AP) — Viktor Lakhin scored 15 points and John Newman III scored 12 points and Cincinnati routed Georgia Tech 89-54 on Wednesday night.
Offensively, Lakhin never stepped inside the 3-point line, shooting 5 of 6 from distance. CJ Fredrick scored 11 points for the Bearcats (5-0), who began turning what was a competitive matchup through most of the first half into a beatdown starting just before halftime.
Georgia Tech’s Baye Ndongo made 1 of 2 foul shots with 2:43 left before halftime to bring the Yellow Jackets within 32-27. Cincinnati countered when Simas Lukosius made a 3-pointer 14 seconds later, and from there, the Bearcats outscored Georgia Tech 23-8 over the next 7:30. Cincinnati led 40-32 at halftime and extended its lead to 58-35 after CJ Fredrick’s 3 with 15:13 left. Fredrick made another 3 less than 2 minutes later and the Bearcats led 67-37.
Koawacie Reeves scored 14 points and Miles Kelly 12 for Georgia Tech (2-2).
Cincinnati got its ninth straight win over an ACC opponent, a streak that began against Maryland in Maui (2009).
