Pitt rolls past Rider

PITTSBURGH — Jamie Dixon is closing in on his 200th coaching victory at Pitt, needing three more to get there.

Brad Wanamaker had 16 points and 11 assists and No. 3 Pittsburgh used its man-to-man defense and patient offense to slow down Rider’s 3-point shooters during an 87-68 victory on Saturday.

Ashton Gibbs also scored 16 points and Dante Taylor added 12 to help the Panthers win their 53rd consecutive non-conference home game and their 102nd in 103 games.
