FAYETTEVILLE -- A challenging week for the Georgia Tech basketball team with three games in six days got off to a rough start.
The Yellow Jackets, playing their second game in 16 days because of a lengthy break for finals, lost to Gardner-Webb 79-69 at home in Atlanta on Monday night.
Now Georgia Tech (5-4) has back-to-back games against SEC opponents in the University of Arkansas (7-2) tonight at Walton Arena and against Georgia back home on Saturday.
Yellow Jackets Coach Josh Pastner said after losing to Gardner-Webb (8-5) that he welcomes the quick turnaround to play the Razorbacks.
