Robert McCray V and Bryce Workman were among the main playmakers for Jacksonville as the former scored 13 points and the latter dropped a double-double on 18 points and 11 rebounds.

Meanwhile, Georgia Southern was expected to have a tough go of it on Tuesday and that exactly how things played out. They were dealt a punishing 86-55 defeat at the hands of the Spartans. Georgia Southern found out winning isn't easy when you don't work as a unit and post 15 fewer assists than your opponent.
