Efficiency, Control of the Paint, and Squad Depth Make Indiana Tech Prevail Against Rochester

FORT WAYNE, Ind. – The Indiana Tech men's basketball team was dominant in an 85-58 win against Rochester University on Wednesday night in the Schaefer Center, relying on three pillars: efficiency, force on the paint, and squad depth.
 
The Warriors ranked #6 in the NAIA, have been a consistent team throughout the entire season, and showed it one more time against Rochester. Shooting 58.6% from the field and 62.5% from the 3-point line, the team did not give any chance to a Rochester team that shot 32.2% from the field and 34.4% from the 3-point line. Rog Stein, Indiana Tech top scorer in the game, portrayed the team's efficiency, with 100% accuracy from the field and 2 free throws made in 3 attempts to score his 14 points.
 
The second pillar of the Warrior's game was in the painted area. Indiana Tech outscored Rochester 50-12, a 38-point difference that impacted the game's final score. Another stat that shows the Warriors' superiority on the paint is the number of rebounds: Indiana Tech 44-31 Rochester.
 
The third point that materialized Indiana Tech's dominance in the game is the contribution of the reserve players. Indiana Tech's reserves outscored Rochester's 42-24, with 14 players scoring, while only 9 scored for Rochester.
 
Indiana Tech was dominant over Rochester and increased the winning streak to 6 games. Saturday, Indiana Tech travels to Grand Rapids, Michigan, to play against Aquinas College in the last away game of the WHAC regular season.
