Tyler Tanner leads Vanderbilt past Wake Forest, 74-51
Tyler Tanner scored 17 points and grabbed 10 rebounds as Vanderbilt improved to 2-0 and extended its nonconference winning streak to 21 games.
On Thursday night in Nashville, Vanderbilt defeated Wake Forest 74-51, led by point guard Tyler Tanner's 17-point, 10-rebound double-double performance.
Despite a disjointed start, The Commodores dominated the glass, outrebounding the Demon Deacons 48-33 and executing a 9-0 run late in the first half to secure a 39-27 halftime lead.
Shooting 38.9% from the floor, Vanderbilt's balanced offense featured Ace Glass with 16 points, Anthony Brown Jr. with 14, and Chandler Bing with 13, while Kevair Kennedy led Wake Forest with 20 points.
Vanderbilt improved to 2-0 on the season and will host Memphis on Tuesday night, while Wake Forest, now 1-1, returns to action the same evening to host Charleston Southern.
This victory extends the nation's longest active nonconference winning streak to 21 games, positioning Vanderbilt to maintain momentum Tuesday when they host Memphis at Memorial Gymnasium to conclude their home-and-home series.
