The Tuskegee University men's basketball team is on the road and set to clash with rival Morehouse College Saturday afternoon in Atlanta, Ga. from Forbes Arena. The Golden Tigers are in search of their first win of the young season.

After moving up six spots in the national rankings from the previous week, the Maroon Tigers took care of business at home; winning their third straight game to start the season, beating Fisk University 115-48.

TU on the other hand allowed five different AUM Warhawks' to score in double figures which proved to be the difference in an 80-71 defeat this past Tuesday. The slow start sends the Golden Tigers to a tough road environment at 0-3, a place the Maroon Tigers finished 12-1 last season.

Four players are scoring in double-figures, led by Omar Alston's 16.3 points per game and 11 rebounds per outing. The Waldorf, MD native scored a season hight 21 points during the team's season opener against Winston Salem State. 

Skegee is led by the league's preseason player of the year in Myles Thomas, who pours in 16.3 points per game. Transfer Riley Hamilton produces nearly 15 ppg.
