GU:
I think the Hoyas were a little nervous at the start, perhaps because emotions were running high after last year’s game. But come the second half, Georgetown settled down and pulled away, using an 11-1 run to start the half and put the result beyond doubt. The young guys got a lot of minutes and did more than hold their own. With Freeman, Wright, and Macklin on the floor, it is a very different look than with Sapp, Wallace, and Hibbert. If the underclassmen can continue to get good minutes, the Hoyas will cause opposing defenses lots of problems. My only complaint with the team’s performance is the free throws. 65% is not going to cut it once Big East play rolls around, so the Hoyas need to right that ship, the sooner the better.

We knew it would be hard adjusting to life without Jeff Green. But maybe not this hard. In the Hoyas’ first game of the season, the four returning starters from last year’s deep postseason run - Hibbert, Sapp, Wallace, and Summers - had stellar games, scoring 23, 18, 15, and 10 respectively. But the fifth scorer was nowhere to be found. Austin Freeman was the only other Hoya to make the stats sheet - hitting a baseline jumper 30 minutes into the game - meaning the four returning starters from last year’s team contributed 97% of Georgetown’s total offense. But before anyone starts to panic, let’s take a look back at last year’s season opener.
