UR Men’s Basketball defeated the RIT Tigers 85-68 to capture their second-straight win. The Yellowjackets were led by senior captain Logan Jagodzinski’s 18-point double-double. Junior Corvin Opera was second in scoring with 13 points followed by transfer Nate Sock with 11. 

From the get-go, it was apparent that the Yellowjackets still had a sour taste in their mouth from splitting their weekend games. They came out of the gates dominating both sides of the ball, quickly gaining a 10-point lead six minutes into the game. Despite a few runs made by the Tigers, the Yellowjackets were able to hold on to their lead for most of the first half. 

After a scoring surge by RIT with a few minutes left in the first half, the Yellowjackets’ lead had been reduced to just four points. In the final possession of the first half, Sock delivered a deep three at the buzzer that put the Yellowjackets up eight points at halftime. 

“The biggest thing is locking in to scouting the other team and being able to defend all their actions. The biggest thing has been that we’re able to get out on big runs, and when we step on it defensively, it’s been perfect,” sophomore Theo Murray said. 

The second half was more of the same story. The Yellowjackets continued to run the flow of the game and were able to contain RIT on offense. More impressively, however, was the Yellowjacket defense — only allowing 12 points in the first 10 minutes of the half. 

Junior Tomiwa Adetosoye was doing all the little things, as he recorded a game-high nine assists and three steals that night. The Yellowjackets were dominating in the second half and were able to grow their lead to 30 points with six minutes left in the game. 

A big win over a cross-town rival was what this team was looking for after a crushing loss in their first game of the season. The Yellowjackets now sit at 2-1 and look on to their next game against SUNY Cortland on Nov. 18.

It started off with small things. One morning, the cuffs of my pants were slightly shorter, almost imperceptibly so.
