Georgetown Stuns Villanova, Advances in Big East

0:00On March 13th, Georgetown pulled off a solid upset in the Big E's tournament, beating third-seated Villanova 78-64. 11-seated Julius Halifoneua led the way with 21 points and 10 rebounds for a double-double. K-Von Moe already added 14 points on perfect shooting, including three from beyond the arc, while Jeremiah Williams chipped in another 14. For Villanova, Duke Brennan had 14 points, but they couldn't keep pace after halftime. The Hoyas snapped a seven-game skid by winning their third straight, taking control late in the first half and dominating the second with a key run. This marched the first time since 1994, that four of the league's seven original members are in the semifinals. Georgetown now faces second-seated Yukon on Friday, giving them a tough test ahead. All eyes will be on how the Hoyas build on this momentum in the next round.
