The Wayland Baptist men's basketball team is starting to earn a reputation for how quickly after the opening tip they can force opposing teams to call a timeout.

After forcing a TO just 88 seconds into their season-opener a week earlier, it took a bit longer Friday night against Huston-Tillotson, but not much. The Rams lasted 1 minute, 45 seconds before requesting their first regroup session. Wayland was up 7-0 at the time, went on to score the game's first 13 points and cruised to a 96-61 victory inside Hutcherson Center.

Tedrick Wolfe dumped in 26 points – including a handful of eye-popping dunks – while Parrish Hewitt ended just one assist shy of a triple-double, getting 20 points and 13 rebounds. Josh Servantez added 16 points off the bench.

The Pioneers (2-0) surged to an 18-2 lead. The Rams (0-2) stemmed the tide for the rest of the half, which ended with Wayland up 49-31, but Coach Clint Galyean's crew got rolling again after intermission and increased their lead to 26 points.

HTU held its own until the final five minutes when the Pioneers again surged, riding a 12-0 run to build a 34-point lead, 91-57, on a dunk by Jaxon Recer. A 3-pointer by Servantez with 12 seconds to go gave Wayland its largest lead, 37 points.

Hewitt – who in a season-opening 102-65 win over University of the Southwest produced 15 points, 11 rebounds and six assists – turned in an even more impressive stat line of 20-13-9, to go with three steals and a block. Wolfe finished 11-of-17 as he scored his 26 in 26 minutes, while Servantez hit half of Wayland's eight 3-pointers.

Wayland forced 17 turnovers while committing just nine.

The Pioneers will be back in action at 6 p.m. Saturday against Our Lady of the Lake (2-1), which already has played three Sooner Athletic Conference teams on the road, following up a 74-71 loss to Southwestern Assemblies of God with wins over Texas Wesleyan (119-117 in overtime) and on Friday at Oklahoma-Panhandle State (112-92).
