Riley Fox absolutely went off for 20 points, driving Tennessee Tech to a 101-34 victory over Wright State-Lake on Sunday. That 67-point difference? It is the kind of score that makes you do a double-take, and it highlights just how dominant the Golden Eagles were.

Golden Eagles Offense Was Relentless

Fox was not just scoring either. He pulled down seven rebounds and snagged four steals, filling up the stat sheet like a machine. The Golden Eagles, now sitting at a solid 3-2, had guys getting buckets all over the court. De’Ante Green was super efficient, dropping 14 points on 6 of 8 shooting from the field, including two from deep. And Caleb Hollenbeck? He was draining threes, hitting four of six from beyond the arc for 12 points. When you have multiple guys hitting those numbers, you know the offense is absolutely clicking.

Wright State-Lake Faced an Uphill Battle

For Wright State-Lake, a USCAA Division II squad, this was a tough outing, no sugar-coating it. Charles Cunningham tried to keep them in it, putting up 13 points and grabbing three steals, but he simply did not have enough help. Xander Kuckuck chipped in with eight points and two steals, but against a Tennessee Tech team that hit triple digits, it was not nearly enough to make a dent. The final score speaks volumes about the challenge they faced on defense.

This kind of blowout is tough for a USCAA Division II team like the Lakers, no doubt a wake-up call early in their season. For the Golden Eagles, though, a 3-2 record after a performance like that? They are clearly finding their rhythm.
