WOMEN’S BASKETBALL Georgia 92, Mercer 45 ■ w w Jm ■■ m iHifP" 3k y 4, Jn DINA ZOLAN | Th Rip * Biac k a Freshman guard Ronika Ransford (4) helped the Lady Dogs to a 47-point blowout of Mercer with a career-high 11 rebounds. Lady Dogs blow out 1-7 Mercer squad By RYAN BLACK The Red & Black The Mercer Lady Bears jumped out to a 2-0 lead over the Georgia Lady Bulldogs just 1:33 into the con test Tuesday night in Stegeman Coliseum. However, the Lady Bulldogs made sure that brief advantage was the highlight of the Lady Bears’ night, as Georgia stomped Mercer after that to the tune of a 92-45 victory. The blowout was to be expected, though. Georgia (7-2) was taking on a Mercer team that had only one victory this season. And Tuesday’s loss dropped the visitors from Macon to 1-7. Lady Bulldogs head coach Andy Landers was unconcerned with how big the mar gin of victory over his hapless opponent was, though. “What is important is that we came back from a game where we didn't play hard, and we played hard,” he said. As the case has been in many Georgia victories this year, the scoring was well-distributed. Every Lady Bulldog who played Tuesday night scored, with no one scoring fewer than three points, while five Lady Bulldogs reached double figures, led by freshman guard Khaalidah Miller's career-high 16 points. The rout also allowed the Lady Bulldogs to work in players that had seen scant action this season, such as forwards Arieal Johnson and Ebony Jones, who both had season-highs in the scoring department. For Johnson, a true freshman who played signifi cant minutes for the first time this season, Tuesday was an eye-opening experience. “I was nervous, really nervous,” said Johnson, who had four points. “The intensity level between high school and college is a big difference.” Jones, on the other hand, was left wanting more despite her season-high output of sue points. “I'm still not satisfied, because there are a lot of things I still could have done better,” she said. The Lady Bulldogs don’t play again until Dec. 19, but junior guard Meredith Mitchell said she felt the main focus of the team until then is to try to recapture its early season form on the defensive end. “We were getting a lot of steals, pressuring, trap ping and getting turnovers that led to easy buckets in transition.” The Rad S Black publishes dally during eech aamaatar acconSng to the Uniyanky schedule.

Bulldogs shoot past Tech with 3-pointer Ware’s 21 points lead to victory By MITCH BLOMERT The Red & Black ATLANTA lf there was any time to hit a 3-pointer, Dustin Ware found it at the right place, the right time and in the right city. The Atlanta native scored a 3-pointer with 18 seconds left in a tied game to lead the Georgia men's basketball team to a 73-72 win against in-state rival Georgia Tech on Tuesday at Alexander Memorial Stadium. “It was huge,” Ware said. “It looked good as soon as it went off, and I had been hitting them all night so I might as well take another." The junior point guard scored a season-high 21 points off seven 3-pointers, leading an offensive charge that saw the Bulldogs (6-2) erase a four-point deficit at half time. Georgia has now won the last two annual contests with the Yellow Jackets (4-4). The win is also the Bulldogs’ third in a row, and the second straight decided in the closing minutes of the game. “We beat a real solid Georgia Tech basketball team," head coach Mark Pox said. “And I thought their kids played really hard. I thought our kids played extremely hard. We feel like we’re leaving here with a good win.” Georgia entered the final minute of the game struggling against a five point Georgia Tech run which tied the game at 70 apiece —but produc ing from 3-point range, where the team was 7-for-ll in the second half. It was no surprise that the Bulldogs went to Ware, who had a wide-open look for the go-ahead shot when junior guard Gerald Robinson kicked it out. “We were just trying to get the best look possible,” Ware said. “Gerald just drove and made a great pass and I was able to knock it down.” Ware was one of three players in double figures for Georgia, along with Trey Thompkins’ 21 points and Robinson's 11 points, which extends his double figure streak to eight games. Thompkins scored 15 points in the second half alone —a statistic that represents the change of pace the Bulldogs brought after halftime. “I don’t know if we got out-hus tled, I think both teams played hard,” Fox said about the first half. “I don’t think we played well.” Before the half, it was Georgia Tech who held the upper hand.

The surge carried into the second half, as the Bulldogs continued to eat away at the Yellow Jackets’ lead. They pulled ahead for the first time only two minutes into the sec ond half, then did so again shortly before Ware scored the go-ahead 3-pointer. At the height of its lead, Georgia pulled ahead by as much as six points. “I thought that early on we did a good job but they caught fire against the zone,” Georgia Tech head coach Paul Hewitt said.
