Georgia Tech Basketball: Jackets Fall to Pittsburgh in First Round of ACC Tournament

The Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets fell to Pittsburgh Panthers in the first round of the ACC Tournament on Tuesday night.

Despite having three players hit double-digit points, including Tadric Jackson’s 17-point effort, Georgia Tech fell to Pittsburgh on Tuesday night 61-59 in the opening round of the ACC Tournament.

The story of the game for the Yellow Jackets on Tuesday night was a slow start. Slow starts plagued the Yellow Jackets throughout the regular season at times and Tuesday night was no different. At one point in the first half, the Jackets missed five consecutive free throws, which in the end could’ve won them the game.
