JAMESTOWN, N.C. — Fayetteville Tech men’s basketball notched its second straight win Wednesday with a 96-80 road victory at Guilford Tech.

The Trojan offense sparked in the second half. Gay scored 16 of his points and guard Collin Lewis hit a flurry of baskets for 11 points. Lewis finished the night with 18.
