With the leaves finally beginning to change here on the Flats of Atlanta, that means it’s time for basketball season. After taking care of ACC Media Days, the uniform reveal/homecoming concert, and the closed scrimmage, this year’s edition of the Yellow Jackets were finally unveiled at home Saturday evening, hosting the Florida Institute of Technology Panthers, a Division II institution in the Sunshine State Conference colloquially dubbed “Countdown College,” and largely centered around Florida’s healthy space industries.
The Short Version:
The Jackets started out slow, trading baskets back and forth with the visitors, and spotting them various small leads.
