ATLANTA (AP) — Iman Shumpert had 19 points, Lance Storrs led Georgia Tech’s 3-point assault and the Yellow Jackets beat Miami 66-57 on Sunday in the final game at Alexander Memorial Coliseum.

Storrs had five 3-pointers for 15 points and Shumpert and Jason Morris, who had 11 points, each added three long-range shots as Georgia Tech overcame a 10-point deficit in the second half. The Yellow Jackets had 12 3-pointers, one shy of their season high.

Georgia Tech (13-17 overall, 5-11 Atlantic Coast Conference) finished a disappointing regular season under coach Paul Hewitt with its first two-game winning streak since January.

Adrian Thomas had 14 points and Durand Scott had 13 for Miami (18-13, 6-10 ACC), which was hurt by 21 turnovers.
