Lance Terry scored a game-high 22 points, helping lead Georgia Tech to a 92-49 rout of visiting Alabama A&M on Saturday in Atlanta.

Javian McCollum added 18 points, while Jaeden Mustaf chipped in 13 points and seven rebounds, as Georgia Tech (6-7) won its second game in three outings. Baye Ndongo had 10 points for the Yellow Jackets, who shot 54.1 percent (33 of 61) from the field and made 10 of 21 (47.6 percent) on 3-pointers.

AC Bryant and Bilal Abdur-Rahman each led the Bulldogs (4-9) with 11 points. Alabama A&M managed to shoot just 20.8 percent (15 of 72) from the field en route to its sixth straight loss.

After London Riley’s 3-pointer cut the Bulldogs’ deficit to 16-15, McCollum’s triple began a 12-0 scoring run, extending Georgia Tech’s lead to 28-15 with 5:30 remaining in the opening half.

Bryant’s layup stopped the Yellow Jackets’ run, but McCollum scored five straight points to push Georgia Tech’s advantage to 15 at the 4:13 mark.

The lead expanded to 18 points before Quincy McGriff’s layup trimmed the Bulldogs’ deficit to 16. Terry’s back-to-back triples jump-started a 12-3 run to close the first half with Georgia Tech ahead 50-25.

McCollum led all scorers with 18 first-half points, while McGriff led Alabama A&M with seven.

Ndongo’s dunk to open the second half started a 10-1 Georgia Tech run, stamped with Duncan Powell’s triple with 17 minutes left to push the Yellow Jackets’ lead to 60-26.

After Angok Anyang knocked down a pair of free throws for the Bulldogs, Terry’s fourth triple was followed by Naithan George’s layup, extending Georgia Tech’s lead to 68-35 with 11:49 left.

Jaylen Colon and Terry then traded triples, before Georgia Tech’s 13-6 spurt was stamped with Ndongo’s layup at the 3:33 mark, giving the Yellow Jackets an 84-44 edge.

Georgia Tech’s dominant day was stamped with baskets from a pair of Yellow Jacket walk-ons, as Emmers Nichols and Marcos San Miguel each tallied their first career points in the closing minutes.
