Georgetown Stunned

I think I speak for all Georgetown fans when I say we are quite disappointed in the outcome of last night’s game but proud of the team and the program.

Georgetown played the toughest schedule in the NCAA this year. We were battle hardened. We had beaten great teams but we lost in the finals of the Big East tournament at the buzzer. We had big dreams for this tournament.

But alas…Cinderella lives, and Ohio University played a spectacular game with fire and intensity. They hit all of their big shots, protected the ball and hit their foul shots. Congratulations to them. We seemed out of synch and tentative all night.

Georgetown now has to regroup. The team has no graduating seniors so we are all hopeful that the team comes back in tact to play next season. If it does it will have a massive upside.

While a disappointing and painful end to a season, it was a great season of progress and development. The team will gain some perspective this off season and hopefully come back next season with a chip on its shoulder and ready to make us even prouder of the school. Hoya Saxa.

  1. Ruined my bracket:) Aside from that [full disclosure: I'm a Maryland Fan], I was hoping to see MD play Georgetown since they were in the same portion of the bracket and they rarely if ever play each other during the regular season. Wrote about it on my blog today: http://tinyurl.com/yk6zz39.

    Ted, since you sit on Georgetown’s board, perhaps you can help make this happen. Perhaps the BB&T Classic can transform back to a tournament that would include both teams?
