Men’s Basketball: Michael Forrest and Alijah Martin combine for 34 points as FAU routs Florida Tech 78-55

The FAU Owls (7-5) blew out the Florida Tech Panthers (8-3) 78-55 in the team’s final non-conference home matchup Friday night in the Burrow at Abessinio Court. This win marks FAU’s fourth straight home victory.

In the first half, freshman guard Alijah Martin led the way for the Owls. He exploded for 14 points including four three-pointers in 14 minutes.

Junior guard Michael Forrest did a little bit of everything throughout the period, tallying 12 points, three rebounds, four assists, and a steal.

“I thought they took good shots. They got good looks and Alijah got it going in the first half and our guys were looking for him, they were moving the ball,” head coach Dusty May said.
