Hoop Dawgs stay hot, down Mizzou for 9th straight win

Georgia hit the road over the weekend in hopes of starting SEC play on a high note. Thanks to
an impressive shooting performance – and a big game by big man Russel Tchewa – the Dawgs
were able to do just that by outlasting Missouri, 75-68.

UGA shot 48% (24-for-50) from the field and 43% (12-for-28) from three-point land.
Tchewa went a perfect 5-for-5 while cashing in 8-of-9 from the free throw line. The 7-foot, 275-
pound senior also snagged 11 rebounds to secure his first double-double of the season.
Georgia (11-3, 1-0 SEC) was hot early. The Dawgs rode a 16-0 run to take a 17-point lead at
the 1st half’s six minute mark.
