First Half


The opening period was marked by intense competition as both teams exchanged leads. The Dawgs showcased their offensive prowess early on, led by Kanon Catchings and Dylan James who contributed significantly to Georgia's scoring efforts. Despite facing a tough defense from LIU, which recorded four blocks and six steals throughout the game, Georgia maintained composure and ended the half leading by a narrow margin.


Second Half


In the second period, Georgia's bench depth became evident as they outscored LIU's bench significantly. Jeremiah Wilkinson played an instrumental role off the bench for Georgia with his dynamic playmaking abilities contributing to their biggest lead of 15 points during this stretch. The Red and Black capitalized on fast breaks effectively while maintaining solid defensive pressure that limited LIU’s shooting efficiency.


Post Game Analysis


A key highlight of this matchup was Georgia's ability to convert turnovers into opportunities; they scored an impressive number of points off turnovers compared to their opponents. Additionally, their field goal percentage stood at an efficient rate compared to LIU’s struggles from beyond-the-arc where they shot just under one-fourth accuracy.
