ATLANTA (AP) -- Josh Okogie scored 15 of his 20 points in the second half, and fellow guard Tadric Jackson added 15 points Wednesday and Georgia Tech snapped a four-game losing streak with a 55-51 win over Syracuse.

Tech (11-11, 4-5 ACC) used just six players, with Jackson as the only sub, and Syracuse (15-7, 4-5) deployed seven. Guard Tyus Battle scored 19 points and grabbed nine rebounds to pace the Orange, who lost for the first time in four games.

The Yellow Jackets never trailed, and led 24-21 at halftime, powered chiefly by an 11-2 run early that included 3-point shots by Okogie and Jose Alvarado and a three-point play by Ben Lammers on consecutive possessions.

Lammers finished with 11 points, 12 rebounds, four assists and two blocked shots from the center position.

The Orange trailed by as many as 10 points, missing 15 of their first 18 shots before scoring on three consecutive possessions to close the first half.

Tech took a 44-37 lead on a Jackson layup with 6:56 left. His final points gave the senior guard 1,001 in his career.

Syracuse pulled within a basket twice in the game's final minute, but the Orange struggled to score on a night when they made just 15-of-50 shots (30 percent) and Tech made 21 of 63 (33.3).

Oshae Brissett had 11 points and eight rebounds for Syracuse.
