ATHENS, Ga. (AP) — Khaalidah Miller scored 20 points and No. 23 Georgia held off Georgia Tech’s comeback to beat the Yellow Jackets 63-56 on Sunday to continue its domination of the state rivalry.

Shacobia Barbee added 14 points as Georgia (5-0) improved to 32-4 all-time against Georgia Tech, including 14-0 in Athens.

The Lady Bulldogs’ biggest lead was 11 points at 42-31 about 5 minutes into the second half. Georgia Tech cut the deficit to three points on a 3-pointer by Sydney Wallace with 4:27 remaining. Barbee’s three-point play pushed Georgia’s lead back to six points.

Barbee’s steal from Georgia Tech freshman Kaela Davis set up Miller’s layup that gave Georgia a 57-49 lead.

Georgia Tech (2-2) suffered its second straight loss to a ranked Southeastern Conference team, following an 87-76 loss at No. 3 Tennessee on Nov. 17.
