Luke Chism (Dawsonville, Georgia) was the highlight of the game for GCSU earning a double-double with 13 points and 12 rebounds. Chism was perfect from behind the arc and at the free throw line while going 4-for-6 field goal range. Austin Sloan (Warner Robins, Georgia) banked 15 points to lead the squad for his first double-digit game of the season. Richard Crawford III (Evans, Georgia) stayed hot in this contest nabbing 14 points.
