RUSTON, La. -- Miles scored the first two points of the game but it was the only time it would hold the lead as Division I Louisiana Tech took a 106-54 decision from the Golden Bears at the Thomas Assembly Center Saturday night. The game was an exhibition for Miles and did not count towards its overall record.

The Bulldogs (6-1) shot the ball extremely well, shooting 57 percent from the field with a lot of that accuracy coming from beyond the 3-point arc (14-of-27, 52 percent). The Golden Bears had some troubles in the first half but did a bit better over the final 20 minutes. Still, they struggled from the free throw line (56 percent) and from downtown (2-of-13). LA Tech, which enjoyed a size advantage at every position, also held a big advantage on the glass (42-21).

Six players scored in double figures for Louisiana Tech, led by Exavian Christon's 15 points. Carl Garcia scored 14 points and had four assists, Louis Blakes had 10 points and three rebounds, Jeffrey Dockett had nine points and three rounds, and Robert Jones added six points and five rebounds for Miles, which hosts Talladega College Dec. 9 at 6 p.m.
