AT THE TIP

  • Vanderbilt men’s basketball returns home to face Tennessee Tech on Friday in a 2 p.m. tipoff at Memorial Gymnasium. The Commodores are looking to bounce back from their first loss of the season after falling to Drake in the Charleston Classic championship game.
  • The contest will stream on SEC Network+ and ESPN+ with Andrew Allegretta and Shan Foster on the call. Fans can also catch the game on 94.9 The Fan with Kevin Ingram and Tim Thompson.

2-1 IN CHARLESTON

  • Vanderbilt returns home from following a 2-1 weekend and runner-up finish at the Charleston Classic.
  • The Commodores knocked off Nevada and Seton Hall to reach the finals.
  • The 2-1 week marked just the second time since 2015-16 the Dores left an MTE with a winning record, joining the 2021-22 Diamond Head Classic.

  • Edwards continues to lead the Dores in scoring, reaching double figures in all seven games this season and eclipsing 15 points six times.
